We have increases in the past two years in total enrolments. 18 universities show a gain this year of 1174, with 12 showing a loss of 846, for a net gain of 328 students. Whereas there is a slight gain for beginner language courses, there is an even more discernible gain for Intermediate. UBC has a very successful reading course, and Dalhousie has an equally large Culture in Translation course, leading to increases in the past two years in those areas. Enrolment in literature courses is up, while enrolment in literature in translation courses is down.
Graduate enrolment is up.
All in all, there is much here to be encouraged about.
