On March 23, the students and faculty of New Jersey’s Bloomfield College received a letter from the school’s president, Marcheta P. Evans, addressing concerns that the financially struggling college might be forced to close its doors.
“I write today to share with you an important update on Bloomfield College and our pathway moving forward,” Evans wrote. “It is with great pleasure – and no small degree of relief – that the Bloomfield College Board of Trustees has authorized me to finalize and execute an agreement with Montclair State University through which Montclair will provide financial support to Bloomfield College, if needed, to ensure the College can remain open through the 2022-23 academic year as together we work toward our goal of establishing a permanent relationship before the end of the next academic year.
