At the IUP Council of Trustees meeting on Thursday, President Dr. Michael Driscoll said he feels the student population this year will hold steady compared to last year.
Driscoll said that with the challenging financial times and a dwindling new student population, the fact that the number of students remaining just about the same is a victory for the school.
In other business, the council formally approved the mission statement for the proposed college of osteopathic medicine. Normally this is not a step that is handled by the Council of Trustees, but it was a required step for the accreditation by the American Osteopathic Association’s Commission on Osteopathic College Accreditation. Currently the school has “candidate” status with the commission.
