It's... an interesting plan. Hopefully they (and other) LACs take it as a warning.

This doesn't have an effect on sports - but Alabama A&M wants to buy Birmingham-Southern's campus. Along with that, they intend for the potential purchase to serve as the spiritual successor to BSC - which I think is neat.

And these are publicly funded community colleges we're talking about. Lakeland CC (Ohio) is in Lake County, northeast-ish of Cleveland, so it's not like it's out in the middle of nowhere. You'd think this, plus the closing of Eastern Gateway CC in Steubenville would raise enough red flags in Columbus to get someone to address these issues at the state level.

This article has some interesting stats - 13 DIII colleges have closed since 2020, resulting in a loss of 200 athletic programs. An additional 82 have been cut at colleges that haven't closed (though the article does mention some schools have been adding sports).

Lakeland is a member of the NJCAA. Community colleges closing makes me a little sad - those are for the betterment of the communities they serve and are maybe the last bastion of what higher education is supposed to be.

I found this article - it's behind a paywall, but it suggests more trouble brewing in Ohio.

Safe to say with only 8 academic faculty, they did not have sports lol.
