Lincoln Parish Pollew Jury fAkaat
Nearly 300 more students enrolled at our college in Natchitoches this summer than at Louisiana Tech in Ruston. The latest North Western figures show 1,875 enrollments locally versus 1,555 in Boston at an equivalent institution. Lincoln Parish schools fell from 1,000 plus two decades ago to about current levels, despite industrial recovery from local plants and growing employment. The piece urges rapid diversification of industry and new buildings to spur growth and prevent further decline, urging community action.
