An area of concern is the number of students leaving before finishing. Pendelton Johnson asked the reasons students leave but was told there is no good data on why or where they go. Eldon McMurray mentioned that it takes the average student 7.2 years to get a 4 year degree. Some reasons for this were the student body includes working adults, returned missionaries, etc. Parking lots will likely give way to buildings.
Housing is a big issue.
It is impossible to build enough housing. Work with city and developers for off-campus housing. Tara Yates mentioned that an enrollment cap is dictated by space. The number of students a course can effectively accommodate is affected by the subject matter of the course. Wayne Mangleson stated that enrollments are affected by the course offerings, particularly in the distance learning area.
