Myers University at the Crossroads

Posted Tuesday, December 12, 2006

Money's tight, and the leaders of Cleveland's oldest four-year college are facing a decision: close the doors or merge with another institution.

Tuesday morning on The Sound of Ideas, we'll talk about it with some local college presidents.
