Twenty-six years later, 麻豆原创 has grown from 22,000 students to 66,000; has become a research institution; and has opened a Division I football stadium, a medical school, and soon, a new campus in downtown Orlando.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMany other college presidents have made similar gambits and found mixed results. Hitt is unusual for having accomplished them all, at one university,\u201d according to the <em>Chronicle<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>The <em>Chronicle<\/em> credited much of 麻豆原创\u2019s success to Hitt\u2019s ability to form partnerships.

Over the same period, weighted GPA of incoming students rose from 3.30 to 4.06, and the graduation rate rose from 40 percent to 70 percent.<\/p>\n<p>Dale Whittaker, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ucf.edu\/news\/creating-bold-new-future\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">麻豆原创\u2019s fifth president who took office July 1<\/a>, told the <em>Chronicle<\/em> that involving others was key to Hitt\u2019s success at 麻豆原创.<\/p>\n<p>He would gather key people to \u201cput our heads together, be creative, find our friends, get support,\u201d Whittaker said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHe\u2019s listening very carefully to how the discussion is going. He\u2019ll put in his piece when, and only when, he feels it will make a difference,\u201d added Maribeth Ehasz, vice president for student development and enrollment services.<\/p>\n<p>Hitt and his wife of 56 years, Martha, moved to Madison, Wis., to be near their children.
