I am sure that most of you remember the protests at the University of Missouri where the football team threatened to boycott games unless the university president was fired.
The basketball team did not participate, but based on their performance this year, they may as well have...
Anyway, it seems that negative stigma from the protests are having a dramatic negative affect on freshman enrollment and in overall student retention - they are looking at a 25% drop in enrollment. Mizzou is facing a $32 MILLION budget shortfall. No job cuts have been announced, but they have implemented a hiring freeze.
Can't say that I am surprised, I would not let my kids attend that shitshow of a university right now...
I hope the protesters are happy with the concessions the school made.
