Editorial

Advertising needed , -;.

Despite a projected increase in enrollment this year, we are being warned to -watch out for some lean years ahead. Because of these predictions a lot of time is being spent trying to find what will entise the new student to UMSL. Courses are being designed with -the question in mind, "Will this course have enough of a draw to -warrant trying it?" Careful studies are held before a new program is instituted to make certain that the support is in the community to keep the program going. UMSL is not feeling the pinch of lower enrollments -alone. Other area institutions are taking the same precautions. The difference is they are taking one more step. After they have developed the programs that -will attract -the students. They advertise it. They tell the prospective student, • 'This is what we can offer you." UMSL does not. I UMSL has three major competitor!> for students: The Sf. Louis Junior College District, state universities, and the military. Especially in the past few years, all three competors advertise heavily in the St.Louis area. The Junior Colleges have intergrated T. V. and radio spots to publicize their programs. The state universities, ie South West Missouri State, use radio blitzes several times a year and the military is now one of the biggest advertisers of any group selling anything anywhere. These institutions feel that advertising works. But the University of Missouri does not believe it needs to advertise. For UMC this may very well be true, Columbia is an established school with a good name recognition. But UMSL doesn't have that. UMSL is anew, growing college. Although we have the largest campus and undergraduate enrollment in the St. Louis area some residents don't even know we exist. Others feel we're a two-year college or a branch of the Columbia campus.

'C ..... _ & ...... ;0" ....

Even fewer realize the variety of offerings or quality of education to be found here. The average UMSL student comes from the Normandy area and knows about the campus from growing up near it. A low average of our students come from out of a 10 mile radius of campus. A special problem for UMSL is that many students here are returnees. There is no easy way, except mass advertising, to contact these prospective students as there is for the high school student. At Columbia very few students fit this category. UMSL Downtown, Target UMSL, and similar ·programs are attempting to help UMSL gain recognition throughout the St. Louis area. But they are not enough; advertising is the best means available to contact the prospective UMSL student. • .~etters to the editor encourag.ed IEttE rs Letters to the editor are encouraged and should be typed and double-spaced.
