Mills is a women's college. This would mean the D3 Capital Athletic Conference that was renamed Coast to Coast Athletic Conference, after merging with the American Collegiate Athletic Association, is losing another member. The C2C membership will be down to seven.
Interesting.

-MBC will be included in the NBA All-Star Game celebrations (appears as though they may have donated money to MBC as well).
-MBC reached a $30 million dollar agreement to allow Hilton to build a luxury hotel on campus as part of a new hospitality management program at MBC.
Most of this all happening within the last few weeks. I'm really pulling for this school.
Given they went 18 years with no accreditation - this is an amazing turnaround and really speaks volumes about the power of grassroots efforts. There is no way this school should still be in operation, yet it is... Kinda cool.
I believe the accreditation process takes a few years to complete, but there's a good chance they will see the other side. I also read this will now enable them to apply for federal money, which will allow students to receive loans for tuition.
In short, they managed to save the college.
