On Nov. 30. of 2023, President Newkirk announced via email that the University of Redlands had entered talks to potentially integrate Woodbury University and its programs into the school. On Jan. 12, a second email informed students that a formal agreement between the universities had been reached. Since then, a handful of events were planned to allow students to ask questions regarding the acquisition. One of those events, a student town hall, was recently announced.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The student town hall is scheduled for tomorrow, Jan. 24, at 7 p.m. in the Orton Center. A virtual option on Zoom is available for those unable to attend in person. A link for the meeting can be found in the email sent on Friday, Jan. 19. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
