Nebraska College Shatters Enrollment Records
Peru State College has shattered all records in its 138-year history by marking a massive 16 percent growth in enrollment over this time last year. “As much as I hate to repeat myself, we’ve done it again,” said Dr. Ben E. Johnson, Peru State President. “We are happy to report that on top of last year, when we celebrated the largest incoming class in our history, Peru State is continuing that trend this year with this enormous jump in overall enrollment.” “Our internet, or what we call ‘online-only’ students climbed 123 percent this year—this is unheard of growth,” he said. “These are students who only attend Peru State through their computer.” On the same day last year, Peru had 224 such students; so far this year there are 498.
