What Are College Admission Counselors' Perspectives in 2009?

Today's Campus (formerly Greentree Gazette) shares a collection of very brief quotes from conversations it overheard at the National Association for College Admission Counseling annual meeting recently, in Baltimore. Some examples: "Using sophisticated econometric models, we predicted enrollment to be down 10 percent this year.  That didn’t happen." - Kevin Crockett, CEO, Noel-Levitz; and "This is not the bad year.  By the time everyone realized (in Spring 2009) that this economic situation was not a blip, they had already committed (for Fall 2009).  Next year will be the test."  -Brian Niles, CEO, Target X.
