UA isn't afraid of
political issues

Yesterday The Daily Pennsylvanian reported on the projected decline in high-school graduates set to begin next year and last until 2015. The New York Times, reporting on the same study last week, noted that this trend could cause most universities to receive fewer applications and thus suffer from less selectivity among applicants.
