[QUOTE="Towgunner, post: 1453423, member: 12355"] This is happening. I live in New England and colleges grow on trees here. That said you have A list universities all the way down to Z. Many colleges are starting to close down or downsize. I heard several majors are being cancelled too for lack of attendance. This effect impacts the weakest first, like everything, so, we see this with the lower tier schools. You're right on that. I'm undecided on the top tier universities. They have massive endowments and their brand is very strong. But, I ask you, which one of the elite record stores are still operating? And then, of course, you have the woke variable, which seems to be strongest in the most elite universities. harvard got caught discriminating against Asians and when they were called out they doubled-down on their position. And so, harvard openly admits they discriminate based on race. Sure, they have their "reasons" but this can't last forever. Truth is persistent thing and, as I said, they're openly discriminating. This coming from a very "woke" institution, which clings to a radical non-discrimination policy, but, they openly discriminate. It doesn't matter if its Asians or Super smart space aliens. And then you have all the woke graff, which is doing no one any good especially the students. On one hand you have these massive institutions, with their loyal alumni, donations, endowments, research grants etc. But could this be a façade? The MIT or harvard campuses are impressive. A pleasant stroll around these places makes you think their here to stay. But, ecommerce has displaced far more square footage of retail then all of the sq footage of all the academic institutions by many orders of magnitude. [/QUOTE]
