More on Antioch College
Description from Wikipedia:
Antioch College is a private, independent liberal arts college in Yellow Springs, Ohio, United States. It was the founder and flagship institution of the six campus Antioch University system. Founded in 1852 by the Christian Connection, the college began operating in 1853 with Horace Mann as its first president. Its educational approach blended practical work experience with classroom learning and participatory community governance, and students received narrative evaluations instead of letter grades. The enrollment during the most recent academic year in which it was open for classes (2007-08) was under 200 students.
The College closed in June 2008. However, the Trustees passed a resolution on June 7, 2008 stating "that the Trustees request the [Alumni] Association create the necessary process, plans, and resources for the development of an independent four-year, residential, liberal arts college in Yellow Springs, Ohio, and a business plan for the transfer of assets from the University, and to present those plans to the Trustees for their consideration and approval and that the Association present its timetable for implementing this request to the Trustees." On July 18, 2008, the Dayton Daily News reported that the directors of the Antioch College Alumni Association and trustees of Antioch University have "agreed on the framework for a plan to create a new, fully independent Antioch College."
