I thought those Flordia schools were tiny comuter schools.

I think that most of the people at ASU are from California.

woohoo! rock on guitman. great find!

Does that include part time students?

Does that include TEAM-Blinn students?

i dont believe those figures count part-time students. If it did, continuing education schools like NYU might have the most. Actually, ITT (not the school in lubbutt) or Univ. of Phoenix would probably have the most.

I believe President Gates authorized admissions to increase the size of our freshman classes, so we should see a few thousand more undergrads within a few years.

I wish he would not have done that. We need to keep our enrollment capped for another few years.

George Mason has ~30,000 undergrad & grad. I guess they aren't one the "small schools".

I think I heard that too, that he raised the enrollment cap. Which is stupid, because he hired 400 new faculty members to bring the student/faculty ratio down.

A&M is too big now.... we don't need to expand!
