The Glenville State-WVU proposed collaboration has apparently been put
on hold. The
schools say they are waiting for the state's Higher Education Policy
Commission to
develop some policies on how institutions might merge.
Glenville State is in serious financial trouble and is seeking ways to
survive. Student
enrollment is dropping and money is not available to maintain the
campus
infrastructure. President Thomas Powell has taken a pro-active roll in
dealing with
the college's problems.
The guidelines were presented to the commission this week and a draft
will be made
by April 25th. |
