Deetz said that while other VU programs are early in the enrollment process, there is growth there also. For instance, Distance Ed - ucation is up 12.7 percent in FTE enrollment. “One of the issues we addressed back in 2004 was enrollment,” said VU President Dick Helton. “There had been enrollment losses for several years so we focused on bringing students to not only Vincennes, but also the Jasper Campus, ATC, and univer - sity-wide. We went at this with a dedicated effort and we had a lot of people involved in trying to turn this enrollment around. We are very fortunate that has occurred. We feel good where we are but, as I share with our admissions counselors, we have to remain competitive, we have to remain committed to it, and we have to remain passionate about it - and I think we are doing that at this point.” Wednesday, September 8, 2010 MArtIn County JournAL page 11 Loogootee 7th grade Volleyball defeats rangers The Loogootee Seventh Grade Volleyball “The 7th grade always fight hard, they LLooooggooootteeee aanndd SShhooaallss team defeated Forest Park at home Tuesday, never give up.
