[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is the tip of the iceberg. In 20 years time, many schools will be shutting down. [/quote] The sky is not falling down. Just look at the acceptance rates for many SLACs. There are many more applicants for many colleges, including foreign applicants, than spots for a lot of schools. Some will close as some have always closed. SB's model is out of date. Women's colleges have either gone co-ed or have extremely health endowments like Smith. You don't see many (any?) all-male colleges out there either. Add to that SB's rep, deserved or not, as being a post-finishing school for elite white girls, and its time has passed. That will be true for other schools of course but we don't need to go global over it.[/quote]
