Abstract

IWU President Georgia Nugent says the closure of Lincoln College is an example of the challenging time in higher education. Nugent used to work at the council of independent colleges that tracks issues facing largely private liberal arts colleges. Sixty colleges have closed or consolidated since 2016 and in this interview with WGLT’s Charlie Schlenker, Nugent says that number is significant but perhaps misleading.
