To truly reverse its closure, Antioch College needs to begin acting like it’s open, and begin building on its vibrant academic foundation to grow into a healthy, self-sufficient institution.

To make this happen, Antioch must immediately:

  • establish the College Advisory Board and invest it with real authority, including hiring a College President
  • remove internal barriers and begin recruiting and admitting new and transfer students for Fall 2008
  • restore tenure and remove the threat of firing that hangs over faculty and staff
  • maintain all academic and support services during renovations
  • hold leadership accountable for past decisions and statements
  • ensure an open and participatory decision making process
  • guarantee a commitment from leadership to operate on principles of openness and honesty
  • have leaders committed to the turnaround of Antioch College
  • call for respect in communications from all university officials so the College’s already challenging task isn’t made more difficult

Sincerely,

the Antioch College Action Network (more…)
