UM Expecting largest incoming Frosh class in years

EverettGriz said:
Holy SHIT!!! Are you telling me that enrollment is CYCLICAL?!?!

Huh. I wonder if anyone has pointed that out on this board in the past.....

Stearns said nothing about enrollment being cyclical, or the improvement in frosh enrollment being cyclical. She said UM had worked "aggressively to grow those numbers through retention and recruitment." "President Stearns says this is the largest incoming freshman class the university has seen in years and credits that to an increased emphasis on recruitment."

Everett, can you read the words "recruitment" and "retention"? Those words are not cyclical.

Why do some people just have to expose their agenda, without regard to the facts?

So between UM and msu, which university has more Montana born sitting Presidents?

BOON! #RidefortheBand! #beatthewind! #blowthesky! 8-)

How many born and raised, educated and loyal Montanans at any of the six Montana University System schools as faculty or administrators? Include the junior colleges in this count. What about coaches and athletic department employees?

Do your own research for your paper, bro.
Honestly, though, you could just throw out a number like 534 or fleventy-five. I will bet your foreign born, foreign raised, foreign educated, and non-Montana-loyal adjunct will really care to check.

And your still 4k behind MSU....

But at UM, they actually teach their students to spell.
:lol: :lol:
Why do they keep trying?
I honestly thought he was talking about a moonshine operation, and giving up its location behind the MSU campus.
 
Interesting article in WSJ noting a national trend favoring public colleges and universities that can provide a quality, or at least decent, education. It seems that many of the mid-tier and lower-tier private colleges have had tuition increases by which they are pricing themselves out of a more selective market. Public colleges and universities are still cheaper, and when they can provide a good education in majors that have an awaiting job market, they are getting increasing enrollment. Look no further than MSU---- still an affordable education and strong in fields that have employable markets. It's exactly what parents (and students) are looking for in this era of increasing price competition.

I kinda wonder if they're only comparing in-state public schools, because unless you're in California, out-of-state tuition, even after financial aid and scholarships, is pretty damn expensive.

Reading this part was confusing:

"It looks like maybe even a slightly up new student class. Reversing a downward trend in recent years. It's not a big spike increase but it looks like we will be about even and I said clear last January when I first started, that it was a huge goal," Stearns said.

It goes from largest class in years, to slightly up, to about even?

Am I misinterpreting?

Really? I just remember several years ago watching Dennis quarterback the Cats. His position coach was a good Butte guy who played for the Griz, Sam Jankovich. The head coach of the Cats was another good Butte guy, Jim Sweeney. I believe one of the more successful Griz football coaches, Mick Dennehey, got his first real coaching experience in Bozeangles before his run of success here in San Franzoola and he was really good friends with Cliff. Rob Stark excelled at track here and was the Cat head coach for years. A former football coach here is the son of a Butte native and his brother had an excellent NFL career.

I left Montana for many years and returned to some of the most hateful crap I ever experienced and none of it came from anyone who was a product of either school.

I know the approximate percentage of Montana folks in these six schools. Hope the Lady Griz finds someone as successful as the individual who walked the sidelines here from that huge town of Outlook.

I simply feel Montana deserves better than what it has been relegated to as a state in its entirety. Good natured smack is one thing. I got really tired of watching the best and the brightest of this state pack their bags and and take all that knowledge and talent elsewhere. Hell, look at poor McElwain down in Gainsville and the path he had to take. Right here out of Sentinal High.

Cant you see thats why its so easy for the Cats to raise funding for all their world class athletic facilities...they just go back to their superior student body grads whom have walked through the hallowed halls of Bozeman State.......ohhhh shit wait.

Well that just confirms it.
And of course you're way off. Robb Stark was murdered by the Freys at the Red Wedding
