The New York Sun: Antioch College Will Close, Beset by Financial Woes

Antioch College of Yellow Springs, Ohio, known for its liberal ethos and strong liberal arts curriculum, will close next year because of financial difficulties.

The announcement by the college that low enrollment and a small endowment meant “the College’s resources are inadequate to continue providing a quality education for its students beyond July 1, 2008,” prompted sadness among New York-based graduates of the college.
