Whew! That was close call, interesting enough about 30 or so institutions were wanting to either buy them out or partner with them; however, it was decided by Montclair State to provide funding until they make the affiliation agreement or merger... Bloomfield has a niche market but a rapidly declining enrollment... can you believe it, just 1 single grad student and about 1300 undergrads.!?
