Northland College in Wisconsin is seeking a $12 million lifeline from donors to keep its doors open. If it fails to raise the money by April 3, the college will likely close, officials announced Monday.
“A recent, comprehensive review by the Board confirmed the College does not have sufficient resources or the financial stability to continue current programs and operations beyond this academic year,” university officials said in a news release announcing the fundraising effort.
The small, private liberal arts college is known for its emphasis on environmental studies. It enrolled 518 students in fall 2022, according to the Department of Education’s Integrated Postsecondary Education Data System. That’s a slight dip from fall 2017, when it counted 645 students—its highest enrollment in the last decade. More
CO2 BAD!
Trees GOOD
Trees need CO2
Give these Asswipes a 30 Foot radius when the Liberal mind Assplodes!!
Yeah, I can see those starbuck’s baristas alumni, forking over 12 million to keep the environmental studies skrewl open.

“environmental studies”
You mean like ‘environmental toxicology’ which is a very serious subject?
No? Alrighty then. Bye bye.
If it ends in Studies, it’s not a real degree.
Re-branding, as slutty marketeers call it, might be helpful to this little leftist university located in some snow hole up in Wisconsin.
I suggest:
TreeSex University
F**K A Badger University
Mooselim University
GAB (Guns Are Bad) University
Free Palestine University
Joe Biden Perv U
Northern Wisconsin University of the Blind
Karl Marx Memorial University
They could also name it after Bullwinkle’s alma mater Wassamattu.
$12 million is a big ask. Better schools have close while owning a fourth the amount with an academic year to get the books in order.
Maybe the college can start an OnlyFans page.
Do the smart thing, Northland. Allow loggers to come in and cut down some campus trees for needed cash. Then, replant with seedlings. It’s simple.
The trees can grow back, know what I mean? They can be a source of continual revenue for those with a profit oriented, survival type of outlook.
Was Bernie Sanders’ wife running the place?

Best name for a university: KamanIwannaLay U. It’s in Hawaii.
I think named for Duke Kaman…something-or-other.
That’s better than Wassamattu.
The faculty better learn to code.
They’ll get it from Biden.
They won’t collect enough to stay afloat, but what they do collect will be used for “golden parachutes” for the administrators who caused the collapse. It’s standard corporate practice.
I’m disappointed in you ALL! Not a single “cheesehead” joke.
