Antioch...

Many of you have emailed me with concerns about Antioch's closing, esp. after that fantastic NPR story by John McChesney. It is true. And probably unnecessary. It's all about a mismanagement and the movement away from institutions staffed enfranchised faculty to degree mills staffed by adjuncts.
The alumni board has created a fund to try to save the undergraduate college by removing it from the control of the university board: you can follow the progress at http://antiochians.org/. Please donate to the fund (the US Bank account number is in the upper left of that page). We've raised almost 1/2 million this week, but need to raise something like 39.5 million by this time next year.

PS: if you happen to have any openings for a librarian, I know a few that could use a job!
