Presidents and chancellors have said this outright at open forums. And I didn't say all or any of the BE schools, but Catholic schools in general. But schools like St. John's--if other Catholics are shuttering--they will be hurt badly. The administrators planning things 10 years out are expecting Armageddon in Higher Ed. a decade out. And it's happening for a number of reasons. Georgetown will be OK. The others are going to suffer bigtime with the oncoming upheaval resulting from poor demographics, not enough funding, customers drying up. The fire has actually already started at the small regional privates. Look at places like U. Hartford, Sacred Heart, etc., to get a pulse of their health. Conn. College, Trinity and Wesleyan will be fine. Go below that tier, and the hurt has already started (elimination of departments and schools, firing of staff, bareboned budgets, contingent instructors). Some schools have already died. Look at Antioch College in Ohio, long considered a pretty good mid-tier private. Last year it admitted 9 freshman. 9!!!!! It's dead, buried.
