SUNY Plattsburgh Sets Record Low

From Cardinal Points:
PSUC accepted a record-setting low 49.4 percent of applicants for the incoming class of 2007. The numbers represent a more than 13 percent drop in acceptance in just two years.
This is good news for SUNY Plattsburgh. Ex-president Horace Judson intentionally lowered enrollment standards between 1994 and 2003. Setting higher standards for the college is better for all of us, as the perceived worth of our diplomas are in direct correlation to SUNY Plattsburgh's reputation for a high quality education. Kudos to current President John Ettling for raising the bar.
