College Enrollments: Strategic Planning in the l980s.

Hoffman, Richard

Liberal Education, v66 n3 p347-56 Fall 1980

Enrollment projections for liberal arts colleges based only on demographic information are described as not useful tools for institutional planning. Attention must be paid to family size and income, financial aid policies, and quality of programs. The nature of higher education enrollments in 1964 and 1977 are discussed. (Author/MLW)
