2013 Jan 22

Eastern Connecticut State University recently released its list of newly enrolled students for the spring 2013 semester. Walter Leo of Manchester, CT, is attending Eastern this spring. Leo's major is Pre-Biology.

"We are pleased that Walter has decided to attend Eastern and has the opportunity to experience the benefits of our liberal arts education while enjoying student life on our beautiful campus," said Ned Harris, director of enrollment management. Harris notes that Eastern students come from 162 of Connecticut's 169 towns, from 26 other states and from 44 other countries.

Founded in 1889 as a two-year normal school training elementary schoolteachers for jobs in Connecticut schools, Eastern has grown to become a comprehensive, master's degree-granting institution of approximately 5,400 students recognized by such publications as U.S. News and World Report and the Princeton Review.

Approximately 60 percent of students live on campus, enjoying the small classes, more than 70 student clubs and vibrant campus culture found at Eastern. Focusing on undergraduate education as Connecticut's only public liberal arts university, the University combines a strong liberal arts curriculum with experiential learning opportunities - internships, student research and community service - to prepare graduates for successful careers in a variety of professional fields.
