Fort Hays State looking to slow enrollment - Associated Press

Fort Hays State University enrolled its second-largest class in history this spring, leading school officials to look for the brakes. The university this week reported spring enrollment of 7,932 students, including 3,524 through the its Virtual College long-distance learning program. That was a 22.3 percent increase over the spring 2003 enrollment and second only to the 8,037 students who enrolled last fall. University President Edward Hammond said his administration will focus on absorbing the growth and not take on any more international partners. The school's Virtual College program currently works with three universities in China and the U.S. armed forces.
