Closing a College is something a handful of VPSAs have experienced. And according to Moody’s the numbers are going to continue to rise in the years ahead. Dr. Laura De Veau has been there, and she has invited two Chief Student Affairs Officers to have a frank talk about their lived experiences closing campuses in 2023. Dr. Laura Lyndon was VPSA at Holy Names University (CA) and Eric Booth was VP for Student Development at Iowa Wesleyan University (IA).
