Save Antioch College - The Portal

While this may sound out of left field, has anyone considered contacting The Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation? If they are truly committed to improving and providing education to the population at large, then perhaps they would be willing to assist in or provide a grant that would sustain the college through the proposed period of rebuilding. If this develops into a real possibility, then Antioch would certainly have to install a new president firmly vested in higher education, who would make decisions limited to the betterment of the institution and firmly committed to Horace Mann’s founding principles. The Gates Foundation requires a letter of inquiring prior to submitting any proposal. So, I am going to take it upon myself to come up with a something that I hope will pique their interest in getting involved. I’ll update you as things develop.

Respectfully,
