Dean of Admission and Financial Aid Monica Inzer was quoted in a TIME magazine online article on Wednesday, Oct. 8, that addressed the effect of the current financial crisis on higher education. In "Colleges Getting Hit by the Credit Crunch," Hamilton was credited as having planned ahead "to accommodate a growing number of college students ... [that] will allow the university to maintain its full financial aid program." Inzer discussed the increased recruiting difficulties given the financial strains many families are currently experiencing. She said, "I think now people are saying, 'This is what we can afford, so before you get your hopes set on X College, let's talk to them,' We need to remind them how important education is as an investment."
