Are Catholic colleges in your area closing?

Asked by jca2 (16312points) December 1st, 2023

Here in NY, there’s been an announcement that a college in Albany is closing, permanently. I was looking at the FB post about it, and someone commented that Catholic universities are not doing well, and that this is the 3rd one to close in New York state.

I didn’t know that the other two closed. I think they were relatively small, as is this one, the third. I know a bunch of Catholic schools (elementary, high schools) closed after the scandals with the pedophile priests, because the Catholic church was losing money and losing enrollment in the schools.

Are Catholic colleges and universities in your area closing?

I’m not Catholic so I have no skin in this game, I’m just curious.
