Smallest school in Oregon's public university system struggles with enrollment, budget cuts -JADE MCDOWELL East Oregonian

Nestled in the heart of the Blue Mountains, the smallest school in Oregon's public university system would like to become less of a "hidden gem." For years, Eastern Oregon University's remote location and small class sizes have been a selling point, but these days the classes are getting a bit too small for comfort. Falling enrollment numbers have spurred budget cuts at the school, which have taken their toll in staff layoffs and discontinued majors like Geology and Media Arts. The university is fighting back by boosting recruitment efforts in the hopes of bringing those sorely needed tuition dollars back. http://www.dailyjournal.net/view/story/fdb9a1e5d5224fcba7b137f300a5f4ea/OR--University-Falling-Enrollment/
