Inside Higher Ed: Antioch Protest at 1 Dupont
Some Antioch College alumni, among those pushing for independence for the college from Antioch University, turned up Wednesday at One Dupont Circle — the Washington home of many higher education associations — to seek more support. They passed out leaflets urging people to write to Antioch’s board, which was meeting Wednesday but came to no conclusions about the fate of the college. Larry Rubin, one of those passing out information, said “the issue facing Antioch College is the same as what faces higher education across the country. Should the goal be education or simply to maximize funding for an institution? We’re saying higher education can weigh in and support the transfer to a corporation of alumni who will make sure the right kind of education will continue.”
