The Herald-Dispatch on the effect the COVID-19 pandemic has on higher education enrollment:
The COVID-19 pandemic has been hard on higher education nationwide in many ways. That’s true in West Virginia, although perhaps not here as much as elsewhere.

While the state is seeing an increase in enrollment, Marshall University officials said it has been a give and take in adjusting while trying to navigate the new waters of the pandemic. They said COVID-19 could have effects that will linger in programs for several years, but it is too early to tell what those might be.
