This involves not just football but a marching band as well with the hopes of adding 150-200 students. Very ambitious for a school with an undergraduate enrollment of 1850 students. Xavier?s new med school will add graduate students but it?s impact on annual undergraduate enrollment will only be felt for prospective pre-med students which, arguably, will not be a number in a higher range than those interest in football and/or marching band. With the continuing decline in the pool of college age student, the attractiveness of adding football at Xavier remains or so it would seem.
