The Chronicle: Deal to Save Antioch College Hits Snags, as Some Donors Balk
Some of the key players crucial to the plan to keep Antioch College from closing in June— alumni who have pledged millions to the cause— are balking at the deal that their association’s leaders reached with the college’s governing board late last week.
The donors say the agreement announced with great fanfare on Saturday does not give the historic liberal-arts college in Yellow Springs, Ohio, adequate independence within the overall structure of Antioch University, of which it is part. Such independence was a condition of their giving the money, they say. The college is the only residential campus within the university, whose five other campuses specialize in adult education.
