Are college students returning? It varies, administrators say
Zanesville Times Recorder
ZANESVILLE - Local two-year colleges are trying to recruit new students after lower spring enrollment followed an abrupt change for on-campus learning. This year might’ve been a little tougher for returning students, said Jason Howard, Ohio University Zanesville director of enrollment. They knew what the experience was like and they enjoyed it, and all of a sudden when it all moves virtual, there’s a big adjustment.
But it wasn t all bad, Howard said. Remote learning turned out to be attractive to some students, a surprising observation amid mixed reviews for the screens-only classroom approach.
