(KAIR) -- Barton Community College in Great Bend appears to be maintaining steady growth for a sixth consecutive year, especially at their military sites, which includes Fort Leavenworth.
The end of the fall semester revealed a 6.5 percent increase over the fall 2011 semester, which is a nine percent increase since fall 2010, for all of Barton’s service locations combined.
Barton’s two military satellite locations serving Fort Leavenworth and Fort Riley continue to be assets to the college.
Fort Leavenworth’s campus opened only six months ago and has already proven to be a popular option for soldiers and their families.
The fall 2012 semester enrollment, which was its very first, landed at 147 students served.
It has already surpassed that number with 210 so far this spring.
Director of Fort Leavenworth Learning Services Michele Sumter said she anticipates the growth will continue.
