Quote from: MightyGiants on April 30, 2024, 03:13:03 PMCovid seems to have had an impact on smaller colleges. Colleges made a lot of their money on dorm rooms and the like (which are run at a profit). When colleges were remote, that income stream was taken away. Even with the dorms reopening, more students seem to opt for online or remote learning over in-person.Excellent point. I completely forgot about the whole COVID debacle and its effect on small colleges. I think you're spot on. Still sad
My mother still works part-time for a small university in NJ. It's struggling badly, and from what she tells me, it wouldn't surprise me if it goes belly up in the next couple of years.
