Prospect. University officials perceived that the program would draw students and re- sources from Northeastern ' s business program, since it would be located in an area that the University draws its students from. The University took the unusual step in calling together other schools to op- pose the program. Northern Illinois University, Roosevelt University, Concordia College, Elmhurst College, North Central College and the Lake Forest School of Management joined Northeastern in asking the Illinois Board of Higher Education not to approve the new location. GSU decided to place the program in the Northwest suburb to halt its downward turn in enrollment in past years that have caused the University to terminate staff and reduce its bud- get. Provost John Cownie commented, Northeastern feels that the G.S.U. proposal constitutes an attempt to place a competing undergraduate program in Business and Management within the area served by our Commut- er institution. The reason G.S.U. wants to open a branch in the northwest suburban area is to offset the problems of dropping enrollment, in their Southern Cook County location. Said Cownie, To place such a program in another public institution twelve miles and perhaps thirty minutes from our campus, squarely within the area which we serve, is clearly not in the interests of Northeastern. Continued Cownie, we feel that Northeastern faces a continuing strug- gle to obtain resources adequate to sustain and build its program in Busi- ness and Management. We would also argue, however, that students would be better served by providing them with a quality education . . .We do not feel it makes good sense for public higher education in Illinois to begin launching
