This “Mizzou Effect” is a known factor among college leaders, and the official said Evergreen has been in contact with University of Missouri to learn from their experience.
I wonder what they will learn....................
That they need to Raise Tuition prices...
what they will learn?......Doubling down on stupid................
It’s the only public university I know of in the US where there are no tests or grades. You more or less meet your instructor...set some agenda up with them, and just show up for classes and discussions. After four years, you graduate. What you do with the degree...is a question-mark.
How they (the state) ever got into this discussion of creation and allowing them to be accredited is a mystery to me. But if you were a straight F-student for the last three years of high school....there’s hope for you at Evergreen.
Proggies do not ‘learn’ after their indoctrination. Changing opinion equals admission of error; proggies cannot, will not ever admit to error. It’s a very deep-seared trait. They must suffer greatly to change an opinion, then they go silent.
Mizzou has openly admitted to a first-ever advertising budget. Reports say posters are numerous particularly in major airports where MU tends to draw from (Chicago O’ Hare). There are other recruiting ad efforts costing it additional $$$. Can’t recall those details.
There are reports applications are up 15% over last year, but given the 35% drop in enrollment that’s only a partial comeback
Then there’s the donors and would-be donors who either scaled back or dropped any intentions to give
My advice to Evergreen is to fire or dismiss the instigators and STFU. Then pray that most will have memory lapses in a couple of years
