A New Year Begins

The 144th academic year began September 7 with 2,600 students and approximately 710 new students, the largest enrollment and new class in college history. Some changes in the general education curriculum will also be implemented this year, including a foreign language requirement for graduation. For those students new to college, change is everywhere. Adjusting to life away from home, new freedoms, a different academic experience, having a roommate, and the list goes on and on.
