All I'll say is this as a Hampshire Alum: Miriam Nelson outright LIED to Alumni out here in the Bay Area at an event in December of 2018, telling us that Hampshire was doing well. BAM! A few weeks later, she announces that Hampshire is in dire financial crisis, and needed to find a merger partner in order to remain open. That galvanized all of us as Alums, let me tell you. And I'm glad Nelson eventually resigned, because she wasn't being honest.
