COLLEGE CLOSURES (S 2387) Senate 37-0, approved a bill that would require colleges and universities to post fi nancial information online in a publicly accessible fashion, undergo regular budgetary screening and alert state offi - cials if they face imminent closure. The bill was fi led in response to some college closures and mergers in recent years, most notably Mount Ida College which in April 2018 caught everyone by surprise with the unexpected announcement that it would shut down at the end of that school year. Under the bill, all higher education institutions would be required to alert the Board of Higher Education if they have any liabilities that create a risk of “imminent closure.” The measure also requires board members at every college and university to undergo regular fi duciary and accreditation training. If the board determines that a school does in fact face closure, the school would be required to create a contingency plan with details outlining how students can complete their programs, how their records would be maintained and how deposits would be refunded. The board would impose a fi ne of up to $1,000 per day if it determines that an institution has failed to comply with this new law. The board would also have the power to suspend state funding to the college or revoke degree-granting authority. “The Senate has continually placed an emphasis on education and making sure that students are aff orded every opportunity possible,” said Sen. Anne Gobi (D-Spencer), Senate chair of the Committee on Higher Education. “This bill adds necessary protections to make sure that students, faculty and staff are protected from abrupt school closings and provides greater transparency and accountability relative to the fi - nancial stability of all institutions of higher learning.” The House has already approved its own version of the bill and a conference committee will likely hammer out a compromise version.
