Predominantly Black college to shut down after Covid-19 and cyberattack burdens

Description (Dublin Core)

This is a news story from CNN by Omar Jimenez. After more than 150 years, Lincoln College in Illinois will be closing its doors due to struggles on cyber attacks and COVID. This college is significant because it was the only college to be named after Abraham Lincoln when he was still alive, according to the US Department of Education.

COVID created many economic burdens for the college with the transition to remote learning. COVID also created drops in enrollment.
