HI Darlene, Very interesting situation. Here are some ideas we came up with to address the realities of the economy. 1. Alert prospective students that they may have to look beyond Jacksonville for employment and that they might have to be creative like working a few days away from home each week. 2. Talk with employers who are at a distance and who may need court reporters. Ask them about incentives they can provide to your grads. 3. Ask employers to visit your school and talk about the benefits of living in their area. Hope this starts to generate a few more ideas for you. Best wishes, Susan
