  • Jean Gregorek: "Another Education Is Possible:The
    Another Education Is Possible: The Closing of Antioch College and the Story of the Nonstop Liberal Arts Institute Jean Gregorek Jean Gregorek is a former Associate Professor of Literature at Antioch College. Antioch College was closed by the Board of Trustees of Antioch University on June 30, 2008 after an intensive year-long struggle to save the 155-year-old institution. This was the fourth suspension of operations in the College’s history. Opening its doors in 1853, the College was declared bankrupt by 1858—the first of many insol- vencies, declarations of financial exigency, payless paydays, and salary cuts. Alongside this checkered financial history, however, the small liberal arts college carved out a well-deserved reputation at the forefront of both the Old and New Left and as a laboratory for progressive education in the U.S. When this precious legacy was put at risk, the victim of corporatizing trends in higher education, Anti- ochians united to fight back. Many of Antioch College’s educational experiments, seen as out- landish at the time, have now passed into common practice. From its inception the College employed female faculty and admitted women students to the same curriculum as male students; students of mixed race were accepted in the 1850’s and by 1863 the Board of Trustees had decreed that no student could be excluded “on account of color.” In the 1920’s, influenced in large part by John Dewey’s the- ories of applied learning and education for participatory citizenship, the College pioneered its highly successful “co-operative education” program, alternating on-campus semesters of liberal arts courses with semesters of paid work and research.
