For Immediate Release
CONTACT: press
March 31, 2008- In a meeting on March 30, 2008, the Antioch College Alumni Association Board of Directors unanimously passed a resolution calling for the University Board of Trustees to meet face-to-face with the Antioch College Continuation Corporation (ACCC) as soon as possible.
Nancy Crow, President of the Antioch College Alumni Board, said today in a statement: “We strongly urge the University Board of Trustees to sit down with the ACCC and have a meeting with all possible speed.”
She continued, “The continued operations of Antioch College are vital to the nation and to the world. We ask that the two Boards come together to consider all possible options.”
Recently, the ACCC and the University Board of Trustees broke off negotiations concerning the transfer of the College to the ACCC, an independent non-profit corporation controlled by nine distinguished College alumni.
Since the University Board of Trustees announced the suspension of operations in June 2007, Antioch College alumni across the country have rallied to their alma mater’s defense. Alumni chapters have grown worldwide. The Alumni Board is continuing with its fundraising and planning efforts.
