This has been building at Akron for a decade. They had a delusional President who spent money hand over fist in an attempt to turn them into OSU (and used to publicly brag that they would shortly become the first choice public university for Northeast Ohio kids within a few years) and then walked away before the financial house of cards came tumbling down. Their enrollment has been declining for years. They built a 60M football stadium that's 80% empty most Saturdays. They can blame this on COVID all they want, but their day of reckoning was coming virus or not. I hope Kent State makes good use of their soon to be downtown branch.

Maybe UC should beat them to the punch and open up the UC-Northeast Branch.
