UK studies record-enrollment impact

By Adam Sichko
tiiE‘iiEN’ttTcio’kEniici

Provost Mike N ietzel said yes
terday UK must control freshman
enrollment to preserve high-qual-
ity education.

“1 don't want to push the en.
tering class size bigger." Nietzel
said. “I want to keep the cohort at
3,800 to 3.900."

N ietzel addressed a meeting of
the Board of Trustees' academic
affairs subcommittee to review
the effects of three consecutive
years of record undergraduate
enrollment.

“The entering freshmen co
horts of '02. ‘03 and '04 were all

records that led to a discussion
about the dire consequences of
this growth and prompted a re»
view of what exactly the educa-
tional outcomes of this were." N i‘
etzel said.

The preliminary data was nei-
ther conclusively positive nor
negative for UK. said trustee Bar-
bara Young.

“This isn‘t the worst possible
scenario. but there's obviously
some areas of issue with class
size." Young said. “This is mostly
fairly good news for the universi-
ty. but it‘s not perfect."

The average class size for UK
students showed little variation
from fall 2001 to fall 2003. Students

in courses at the 200 level experi
enced the gr 'atest growth. having
an average class size of 45. up
three students from fall 2002.

In that same time frame. llKl-
and fitkilevei classes deer *ased by
one student. while the lilo-level
class size increased by two stit-
dents to :36 students per class.

"The average class size hasn‘t
changed in any appreciable fash‘
ion over this time." Nietzel said.

The study also examined the
number of "small“ (:50 or fewer
students). “medium" (31 to 99)
and “large" (1le or more) classes
that first~time freshmen took in
their first semester at UK.

According to the data. had

3.937 tirstrtime. lull~time fresh-
men an increase of 930 from
the 2001 freshman class. The data
shows that:

' 981 more students are taking
at least one “large" class

0 893 more students are taking
at least two "large” classes

' 13.3 more students are regis-
tered for at least three “large"
classes. a number that represents
15 percent of this year‘s freshman
class up frotn 5.3 percent in
2001

show them that this is a

good investment." said Ray

As soon as we got down to

Nietzel said l‘K's facttlty deserve

“The faculty have done an enor-

"The kinds of laws the government

Nietzel tesponded: “You can do any-

“We shouldn't lose sight of the fact
that 3.900 is a statistic." Nietzel said.

“If trial and error is the best

"I‘ve tried to stand for America and

million a year. the campaign to adopt a
new slogan for our state was well worth it.

right? Hardly.

At a time when Kentucky has strug-

pop up left and right to plague our econo-
