UNC Leaders Hope To Boost Enrollment At Elizabeth City State - ELIZABETH FRIEND, WUNC

Elizabeth City State University Chancellor Thomas Conway hopes the new working group can boost enrollment after six years of decline. After more than half a decade of declining enrollment at Elizabeth City State University, UNC system leaders are convening a working group to focus on boosting student numbers at the historically black university. ECSU Chancellor Thomas Conway will lead the working group, which he says will focus on improving student recruitment and retention. "As we're looking at declining enrollment, it is time to pull out all stops," said Conway. "We need to do everything we can and get every idea on the table we can generate to look at how we turn this around and make the institution work." http://wunc.org/post/unc-leaders-hope-boost-enrollment-elizabeth-city-state-university
