Excerpt from the Wright State Guardian
In a Sept. 16 meeting, the Wright State University Board of Trustees discussed enrollment, finances and expansion of student opportunities.
President Sue Edwards stressed the importance of enrollment and retention. Edwards noted that first-time enrollment is up for the Fall 2022 semester, with 1,541 students this year compared to 1,394 the previous fall.
The Board also approved three new lease agreements.
- The first lease agreement will make the University an educational partner with the YMCA of Greater Dayton’s new Northwest Dayton Health and Wellness Campus. This lease will provide Wright State with a space at the Northwest Dayton site.
- The second agreement leases University space to the Ohio State Auditor. Upon moving the Western headquarters into this space, the State Auditor will be offering internships to students. The Auditor currently has similar agreements with other universities, including Kent State and Ohio University, according to a representative from the State Auditor’s office.
- The final agreement will negotiate the lease of undeveloped property that the university owns along Colonel Glenn Highway.
