Some news out of Ohio...
Eastern Gateway Community College outside of Steubenville is closing. This place was accused of using diploma mill tactics and financial impropriety.
Bluffton University is merging with University of Findlay. They're both private Christian schools in the same metro, but Bluffton is a small (~1,000 students) Mennonite affiliated school so I imagine that has a limited appeal. Their two most notable alumni are Hugh Downs and Phyllis Diller.

Also, some details on the coaches contract came out:
4% across the board pay increase retroactive to July 1. Another across the board 2.5% COL increase on April 1.
Minimum salary for full time head coach is $45,000. Minimum salary for full-time assistant coach is $40,000, which raises to $47,500 and $42,500 in 2026.
At the recommendation of the head coach, a full-time part-time assistant coach may be given the title “Associate Head Coach" for no additional duties, compensation, or benefits.
The president/designee may grant rollover contracts and annual extensions for a combined total of between 3 and 6 years for head coaches and 2 and 4 years for assistant coaches. Still no idea on what the standard term is for that initial contract. I've been told 1 year, 3 years, and 5 years.

Bloom, Lock Haven, and Mansfield reduced five college deans on each campus to three overall. There were deans at each campus for health, business, arts, education, and science. Now there are College of Health, Science and Technology led by Bloom's dean, College of Arts, Humanities, Education, and Social Sciences led by Lock Haven dean, and Zeigler College of Business led by Bloomsburg dean. Some other administrators are out, and most current deans will become associates and go back to classroom if they stay.

How bad are things at Penn State? They're offering a voluntary 12 months salary severance to most employees at their branch campuses. They'll also subsidize COBRA for 6 months so the insurance premium is the same as when working.
