STFX president Dr. Andy Hakin said the rise in rankings is a great affirmation for the type of school they are trying to create.
STFX finished 10 overall in last year’s rankings, which are based on scores compiled from five key categories: Students, Faculty, Resources, Student Support and Reputation. StFX fared well in several other areas such as Library Acquisitions, Student Awards, Social Sciences and Humanities grants, Faculty Awards and Student/Faculty ratio.
Hakin thanked faculty, staff, allums, and students for their efforts. StFX is hosting an Open House on October 19th for potential students wanting to know what STFX is all about.
