enrollment increases

[Emily Tall]

Has anyone had any increases in first-year enrollment over the last year
or two? Also, what is your usual rate of attrition between first- and
second-semester Russian language classes? And have you succeeded in
lowering that rate and retaining more students between first and second
semester? I am writing a report for my
chair and dean and would really like to be able to say that some schools
have had increases. I don't need exact figures, just more or less, and as
soon as possible. Thanks a lot! Emily Tall SUNY/Buffalo
