E.M.T.F. receives praise by Karla Joost The work of the Enrollment Management Task Force was the be.s t of fifteen clients weve had this year, according to Dr. Ron Ingersoll of the Ingersoll Group, Inc. Inger-so- ll was on campus September 23 and 24 to consult with the Enrollment Management Task Force and to present his response to the committees report on the desired state of Westminster College. DePaulis said he is convinced that 80 percent of the future jobs in Utah will come from busi-- , nesses at the local level. It wont be the Fortune Five Hundred, it wont be the people coming in from the international scope and feel. They will help and were not going to turn them away, but most of the job creation and most of the weight structure will come from local business. That will be a major emphasis of my administration. The task force, or EMTF, was created with Ingersolls help in the spring semester of 1987 to write a report suggesting the desired state of the college within the next five years. Survey and current data were used and were divided into two categories, climate and desired state. DePaulis said, that stronger working relationships between government levels a'nd the community, ultimately brought about by better communication, will help build the economic picture for the future of Salt Lake City. view. President Dick said that EMTFs work was extremely important because of Westminsters upcoming midterm accreditation reWe need at least a five year plan for our accreditation, said Dr. Dick. If we have a good year this year and next year, well be out of financial exigency. Thats the reason for this task force short term and long term reasons. Although enrollment is on the upswing at Westminster, Dr. Ingersoll warned that there can often be a substancial decrease in enrollment after an increase. and that there needs to be a permanent group established to carry on what the task force has started. Ingersoll described it as an institutional commitment. Dr. Ingersoll also indicated that according data, small schools like Westminster are becoming more popular. He said that college reputation not only played a big role, but that environment also added to a schools attractiveness to the prospective student. Commenting on Westminsters diversity, Ingersoll added, You give good service. Now the EMTF will review Ingersolls response to its report and select a permanent enrollment management committee. Dr. Ingersoll will return to Westminster in one month to do some follow-u- p work and to disto recent cuss further enrollment strategies. ' ) ) t ft f i r |
