During this first week as the new Project Manager at Miscellaneous State Technology University (MSTU), we hope you are as excited about your new position as we are to have you on board! By now, you are probably aware that a stated goal of the MSTU Board of Trustees is to increase enrollment by 5,000 students over the next five years, over its current base of 14,000 full-time undergraduate students. Since all students currently live and attend classes on our one campus, this is a major undertaking. While we all recognize that this goal, if achieved, will bring along major infrastructure questions and issues, that is not your concern for the time being. What is your concern, and your first project, is to determine why students decide to attend MTSU, why accepted high school students decide to matriculate elsewhere, and what changes MTSU needs to make in order to achieve the stated goal. You will meet with the Student Expansion Oversight Committee (SEOC) one week from today with your initial proposal on how to uncover the needed information and use it to develop a plan of action.
