Go woke, go broke: College Edition

Birmingham-Southern will likely know their fate this week. They have asked Alabama lawmakers for $37 million to stay open. If they do not get an influx of cash, they will close in May.

Faculty are meeting with students this week to discuss transfer options.
BSC has been on the woke train for years. Their homecoming festivities featured a drag show just this past fall. A few years ago, a Christian group was kicked off of campus, only to be let back on after a group of influential donors threatened to pull donations.
Here's what these small woke colleges in the South (Looking at you Trinity, Centenary, Millsaps) fail to realize. You can't go full woke. Your alumni base that went to your schools when you were a cut above academically are mostly conservative. The woke brigade that you has been marticulating for the last decade can change their social media profile pictures but they can't give money to save you.
This has been happening for a while. COVID sped it up. Millsaps and Centenary are next. Centenary's adding football as a last ditch effort.

Let it close. I don’t think anyone will notice it’s gone.

Any chance this happens?

Are those 2 BSC students that burned down all those country churches still in jail?

The president of millsaps just left to take over at Sewanee. Sewanee will take a while longer (since the endowment is much bigger), but it’ll be destroyed soon as well.

BSC was a cut above everyone in state even your other little private schools like Samford and Montevallo. I'm old enough to remember guidance counselor calling it "the Harvard of Alabama" and everyone agreeing it was the most selective and prestigious school in the state. I don't think it's even top 10 now.

A private college wants $37 million from taxpayers.
Ahh...frick no.

It’s going to be a blood bath for small private lib arts schools. They are obsolete.
