SDSU President and Rotarian Dr. Barry Dunn addressed the Brookings Rotary Club today, updating members and guests on several important university-related topics: enrollment (it's up, and we'll know just how much on September 11); residence halls (they're at capacity); scholarships (greatly increased, thanks to a tremendous Bold & Blue campaign); and campus infrastructure improvements (part of the campus master plan). Dr. Dunn also spoke about the university's strategic plan and SDSU's pursuit of R-1 status, dependent upon research funding levels and Ph.D. degrees conferred. President Dunn also noted SDSU's status as the state's safest campus, and while he touted the campus and Brookings police for their work in keeping the campus secure, he also gave credit to the young people on campus: "It has to do with the students we attract. They make great decisions." Thank you, President Barry, for your leadership and for a great presentation! GO JACKS!
