Yellow Springs residents. Alumni Board President Nancy Crow and

Alumni Board and Board of Trustees Continue
Discussion
Much progress made
YELLOW SPRINGS, OH – The Antioch Board of Trustees today postponed a vote to consider lifting the
suspension at Antioch College, while agreeing to continue deliberations during this next week after an historic
collaboration with the Alumni Board.
The Trustees and the Alumni Board are committed to continued discussions in order to make every effort to
successfully resolve any and all remaining issues.
“It was our hope that the Board of Trustees and the Alumni Board would successfully resolve these issues ,”
said Art Zucker, chairman of the Board of Trustees. “However, we are dealing with very complex, long-standing
matters of critical importance and we simply need more time to deliberate. We are negotiating collaboratively,
and we are optimistic of a positive resolution in as rapid a manner as possible, but there was not enough time
to resolve the issues by the conclusion of this Board meeting.”
Nancy Crow, president of the Alumni Board, called the deliberations “incredibly positive, which portends a good
future. We have worked together in an unprecedented manner, and I am hopeful we can continue on this very
positive path. I am optimistic, as is our board.”

“Our decision to continue to meet and discuss, having already made much progress is a strong indication of
our forward progress,” Chairman Zucker said. “We have reached many positive agreements in recent days,
and this newfound collaboration between Trustees and the Alumni Board is gratifying, constructive and
considered by all parties as outstanding.”
