Medaille will close Amherst campus at end of semester - Melinda Miller, Buffalo News

The changing dynamics of graduate education and a crushing budget deficit have caused Medaille College to shift gears and announce the closing of its Amherst campus at the end of this semester. College President Richard T. Jurasek said that the school will consolidate its instruction on what he calls Medaille’s “mother campus” on Agassiz Circle beginning in September. In presenting the school’s annual financial state of the college report Tuesday, Jurasek said the school, which has an annual budget of close to $60 million, had a deficit last year of $2.2 million and was projecting similar numbers for the coming year. http://www.buffalonews.com/feed/medaille-will-close-amherst-campus-at-end-of-semester-20140218
