atoddh is right. The loss of future grant money, combined with the legal fees associated with the current troubles and the possibility of grant repayments, may finish the U.
The Pittsburgh banking community and probably UPMC are salivating over the possibility of buying the campus.
No doubt they will be in cahoots with a certain local Bishop and his hospital, which "forgot" to file a required form stating that they were spending $4 million to buy the Mount de Chantal property.

eileen:All of that would be great news if there were not Federal fraud charges pending.It will cost WJU a fortune for defense and probable fines.

On Tuesday we learn that the principal of Central Catholic is leaving, now today, we read that the president of WJU is leaving - any connection?

Fleming is the 6th President since 2000. Seems to be some instability at WJU.
