Sweet Briar at 300 Students and Counting in the Run-up to the Academic Year | Nonprofit Quarterly: "Over the course of twelve days, the brand new board of Sweet Briar College has met three times, including yesterday via teleconference, to make the decisions required to try to keep the college open. Again, one of the most immediate variables that needed to be dealt with was enrollment. The student body was at 700 last year, and the new regime was unsure how many students would enroll or re-enroll after the college’s former board voted to close the college last March—and after the ensuing struggle, where the outcome was iffy."

As Clock Winds Down, VA AG Herring Offers Help to Sweet Briar College Stakeholders - NPQ - Nonprofit Quarterly: "A few days after Virginia’s governor publicly expressed a willingness to try to help resolve the situation at Sweet Briar College and lawmakers called for an AG investigation into the college, Attorney General Mark Herring has also publicly offered to facilitate a conversation between the board who voted to close the college and stakeholders who are trying to stop the implementation of that decision through litigation.

In the letter, Herring indicates that he had reached out previously for the same purpose, but at least in this case, it appears both the board and the stakeholder group Saving Sweet Briar have accepted the invitation."
