Well our President Steve Stoute must be familiar with Loyola Chicago, having come to us from DePaul Chicago (the largest Catholic university in the USA). We can hope Health Science and Lyons stay with CU (a Jesuit institution). Someone must know what's going at CU that TPTB think the buildings should be sold. How's the $150MM development drive (silent portion) going? Anyone know?

P.S. Take a look at the "Probably not going to happen but..." piece of Sat. May 23rd. https:www/.luc.edu/arrupe/. "WELCOME TO ARRUPE COLLEGE" "An innovative two-year degree program that ensures affordability and supports the whole person". That's a part of Loyola University Chicago. Imagine that at CU. The whole piece is 13 pages long in color. Why not a program like that at CU in Health Science or Lyons in place of trying to sell those buildings.

ECC South is about to close. We have a shrinking population in WNY as well as in general enrollment. The best answer is to merge with a D’Youville or Daemen which offers a broader academic enrollment with our curriculum. It’s the survival of the fittest when it comes to college institutions. Canisius needs to be smart. Go Griffs!

Merger is honestly a pretty good idea; not as simple as LIU Post and LIU Brooklyn merging to make one LIU but look what that did to it's profile and Athletics - they've qualified for NCAAs in both MBB and BASE recently. I would advocate for D'Youville w/ that nursing program and keep/elevate the sports D'Youville has that Canisius doesn't (i.e. women's wrestling) for enrollment boosters for the University as a whole.

I understand why Canisius needs to opt in to NIL to keep up w/ the Jones's but doing so and putting roster limits on sports such as women's soccer is probably hurting enrollment/tuition dollars to the University as a whole.

So,good Monday morning.Here's a bit of news that popped up on line just now.Buffalo State U is eyeing land on Grant St. to purchase and hold for future expansion. "Canisius needs to be smart". Let's keep what we have.Go Griffs!

If it was about land we would have bough Medaille. It’s about building a sustainable enrollment to ensure the long term. There are already too many colleges / universities in WNY. The state of NY will support their own. Merger make the most sense. We need to do it before Niagara or Bona eye a campus in the city of Buffalo. Trust me this could happen very easily. We’re too small to maintain what we currently have. Go Griffs!

Can't/don't agree with you.CC/CU has owned Health Science and Lyons for years. CU is not"eyeing land---to purchase and hold for future expansion". CU already owns it. Highly likely to need it for growth.And why in heavens name would NU or SBU "eye a campus in the city of Buffalo"? Especially when "there are already too many colleges/university in WNY"? Go Griffs,indeed.

They would expand their footprint with the schools which have been mentioned. Bona & Niagara financially are just as desperate. Both schools are looking to stay viable & it’s beyond their current campuses.
