Radio Iowa reported last week that UD President Jeffrey Bullock has said the his college is not ready to decide on a future SJ(C?) partnership. The story goes on to say that he will report to his board in May, and a decision could be ready by the end of 2010.
Here's the link.

Sheldon Jackson College was and will be a financial sinkhole. Their President probably doesn't want this mess on his hands, who would blame him. This project is an unnecessary side-bar for him--our nostalgia for the old school is not enough for him to sign a check to get the old girl working again. It's time for us to just get a life and move on. The good thing is we were able to experience SJC and its seducively magical space. Sure we want to have "the little school on the island" continue after all the energy we put into it while we were there, but maybe she wants to pass on into history. If you love something, sometimes you have to let it die a peaceful death. Say the funeral service and move on.
Can you post today's announcement by the Dubuque group? It appeared in the Sentinel.

The above article is shocking! And no one informed students of this before we went there. Scary.
The word is that the Trustees finally used some critical judgment in looking at the Dubuque proposal - and did not let Dobler ramrod their decision.
