Current State of HAC

[TheOldJudge]

Does anyone on the forums know anything definitive about the long-term stability of Hyles-Anderson College?

I ask because an acquaintance told me several months ago that the enrollment numbers stand somewhere between four-hundred (400) and four-hundred-and-fifty (450) students.

Is this true? If so, is such a decline sustainable for more than a few years?

This has been addressed several times. Your numbers are probably close to accurate. However, there seems to be disagreement on whether a college with so few students can remain viable. Personally, it seems difficult to believe the doors could remain open operating under the model that existed for the first thirty years, but with online courses and the ability to shave costs, who knows? One thing is certain, it is a shell of the school that existed in its first twenty years.

Several years ago the staff retired and left . The grade of classes is unknown. I don't follow what they preach or live.

This would be normal when the founder dies.

If the college or church was important wouldn't you think to plan ahead? Yes its going to change but put people in charge that love the ministry and people.
