This fall could mark the first time since 1979 that more undergraduate and graduate students attend Iowa State University than the University of Iowa, officials say.

I do wonder if athletic success is at least helping....but this makes all the ISU gear that I've been seeing make sense.:yes:

Just looks like an opportunity to me. More bikes on the market.

I read somewhere that they expect 10,000 incoming freshmen. There's going to be a lot of freshmen this fall.

I didn't realize our enrollment exceeded Iowa's in '79; I didn't think that had ever happened.

I rub ribs the wrong way.

I think Iowa City changing their drinking laws has something to do with it too.

One more reason we always see Ames on the list of best towns for small business and entrepreneurs.

I think this is the case too. A bunch of people from my high school only went to Iowa for the party atmosphere (even though they won't admit it) and all of them blew up on their facebook/twitter account when they announce the change of drinking laws freshman year.

I would be interested to know trend of international student undergrad enrollment at each school as well.

True, I remember hearing that Asian (Chinese, Indian, etc) student enrollment was up quite a bit.

We were at a fundraiser a few years back in Tx in which Mr. Geoffroy spoke of increasing international enrollment as a main strategy in growing ISU. Wife and I spoke out that we would have rather see donations and emphasis be focused on American kids and growing American jobs.

I know, not very PC.
