Re: Spring 2024 Enrollment
Spring enrollment is down by 471 (a whopping 6.8% decrease from spring, 2023) and the press release from WIU has people thinking that enrollment is up. They have to try to make things look good. Do you want them to put out a press release saying "Enrollment is down, everything is horrible...

Re: At Southern Indiana
Yes, I get it, Southern Indiana is the top team in the conference. But I'm still worried. I'm not seeing improvement or leadership on the team.

Re: T&F/Cross Country
I noticed today that the T&F/Cross Country has a fundraiser trying to raise $10,000 to help with travel expenses, etc. They are wanting to try to send some athletes to some of the bigger track meets it sounds like. Coach Brokaw has really raised the track profile imo, he has done some good stuf...

Re: Western BOT wants action now !
Provost has been removed from his position: https://www.wiu.edu/news/newsrelease.php?release_id=19546 Technically he's a faculty member, although he only teaches one "class"...Engineering Senior Project (which sounds like mostly independent study-type stuff). His wife lives in California,...

Re: If Gators lose out, what is the next step?
If the Gators lose out? It's entirely possible if they don't beat Arkansas this weekend. The rest of their slate is at #14 LSU, at #12 Missouri, and home against #4 Florida State.

Re: Myers Hendrickson 2024
Saw a post on facebook that said he had a 5-year contract (I had initially assumed 3-year since that seems to be the "standard" for a contract for a new HC). Maybe that was the trade-off...he signs for just under $100k, but it's for 5 years rather than the usual 3? Do with that informatio...

Re: Myers Hendrickson 2024
I hope they are paying him at least what Elliott got, although I think his wife is also working for the Athletic Dept in some sort of academic counseling fashion so maybe that could be a factor in the his salary. Actually, I see her title is Assistant Director for Athletic Academic Services. ...
