This is my bet for winner winner chicken dinner.
Four year colleges are in trouble. They were in trouble before the coronavirus. Now?
Look at how much colleges and universities are struggling with just
one semester going out of whack financially. What are they going to do if enrollment drops a steady 8-10% over the next few years? Sure, some of them will be fine because there will always be enough families with money to send their kids to school. But there aren't enough of them to keep all these schools afloat indefinitely, including the Greek organizations on them.
I wondered a while back if some of the NPC groups were trying to pivot a bit for the future based on rebranding, verbiage, etc. Not even just to keep up with the times, but to be viable as a woman's organization if things went sideways with college enrollment and cultural trends.
I have nothing against community colleges. My daughter may very well start at one. I lived at home and commuted to a Big Ten university so I have nothing against commuter students either. But putting NPC organizations on community college campuses is one of the most daft ideas I've seen floated on this board lo these many years.
If the NPC groups think they need to go to community colleges to survive, sorority life as we've known it is basically done.
