SUNO should be closed and merged with UNO

quote:

Facing financial turmoil after years of reduced enrollment and state budget cuts, Southern University at New Orleans plans to furlough some employees and increase teaching loads for the faculty, according to university officials.

The furloughs, which will go into effect next week, come nearly three months after the city's only public historically black university was placed on probation by its accrediting agency because of its financial struggles.


quote:

The Southern Association of Colleges and Schools' Commission on Colleges said SUNO lacked the resources to properly support its programs and services.


quote:

The probation means that SUNO will have two years to get on firmer financial footing or it could lose its accreditation, which could mean an end to federal loans and grants for students. The next review will be in June 2020.

It’s kind of hard to be financially sound when 5% of enrolled freshmen graduate.

Ahh, I see. It'll magically meet accreditation standards and stay open.

"I am suffering. We are all suffering," he said. "The classes are overcrowded and completely filled with students who are unprepared for a college education."

Yup it’s time to close this and merge it into UNO.

To steal from Chris Rock, SUNO is like a disco with books.
