While we were there, we drove in and around Antioch College. Antioch is known for it's liberal activism and general anti-conformist student body.
To quote Gordon's girlfriend "this place is a dump".
Well, it appears that Antioch has met with hard times. They announced they're closing the campus effective 2008. From the news release....
Given its small endowment and heavy dependence on tuition revenue, this low enrollment has threatened the College’s survival....
What they should have said was
"our university failed to graduate enough capitalist pigs to donate to our endowment and our 'socially conscience' alumni didn't care enough to give back to the school."
It's really a shame that the school's closing. It's actually a beautiful area and a great place for a school.
Hopefully, they'll make it back.
