    Universities brace for a permanent wave of closures as #coronavirus pushes schools to the brink — https://finance.yahoo.com/news/universities-brace-for-a-permanent-wave-of-closures-as coronavirus-pushes-schools-to-brink-153123471.html [finance yahoo com]

    Interesting article. Follow the link to the full article on “Education Dive” and you can read the statements of many of these campuses announcing their closures.

    It isn’t really just #COVID-19 that is causing this. It is decades of tuition increases (partly due to the availability of federal financial aid) that have pushed students past the point where a college / university education is a good investment. Hopefully, this will grab the greedy education publishing companies by the unmentionables and squeeze tightly.
