What kind of students applied? Not just SAT & GPA, but what are their goals? What do they think higher education is supposed to do for them?

I'll bet no one cancelled their applications to the Ivy League schools to go there.

The R1 status really impacts our graduate student recruiting and enrollment. I believe this has improved/increased. It also hugely impacts UL's ability to recruit new companies to interview our graduates along with giving the faculty a much more competitive position to win more grants. Both are also up.

Checks notes: does graduate tuition fee parameters have same restrictions as undergrad? Maybe we can add a separate athletics fee to them? Aren't most grad students subsidized anyway, so would be a simple transfer from academic $ (they are increasing) to athletics $???
