Does college enrollment go hand-in-hand with athletic success? - Vinny Pezzimenti, Olean Times Herald

St. Bonaventure University president Sister Margaret Carney, O.S.F., in a story printed Thursday in this paper, said that student enrollment at the school has been declining the last four years. In working to balance the budget, Sister Carney wrote in the email, “it became apparent that we needed to make some adjustments in our staffing in view of our reduced student population.” The conundrum isn’t unique to St. Bonaventure. Institutions of higher education across the country are faced with free-falling enrollments. What does this have to do with sports, you ask? Quite a bit, frankly. In many ways, the St. Bonaventure men’s basketball program is the front porch of the university. http://www.oleantimesherald.com/sports/article_b93943b2-0603-11e4-87fc-001a4bcf887a.html
