Some schools become universities for the wrong reason, Oswald said. Farris does not subscribe to that theory. Stockton already offers six master's programs, including holocaust and genocide studies, nursing, physical therapy, business studies, occupational therapy and instructional technology. About 360 students are enrolled in those programs, which started in 1997. Farris would rather focus on the school's programs and fund-raising than a name change that is little regarded on campus.
Outsiders see the name.
But we already have the authority to do what any university would do. People just believe a university is better. All rights reserved.
