Hampshire College to Close Permanently

Founded in 1965, the college was known for its alternative curriculum and lack of traditional grades, leaving a lasting impact on its alumni.

The closure comes after years of financial instability and failed attempts to secure a long-term partner.

The administration has pledged to support current students in transferring to other institutions to ensure their education is not interrupted.

This loss is viewed as a significant blow to the landscape of progressive higher education in the United States.
