ASHLAND, Wis. (WRN) — There’s little new information regarding efforts to keep Northland College open.

Earlier this month, the board of trustees announced that the liberal arts college in Ashland may be forced to close after the end of the current school year. The school must raise $12 million dollars by April 3rd to prevent that.

Students, alumni and faculty have criticized the board for a lack of transparency.

A Tuesday post on the college’s Facebook page did little to allay those concerns. The message from trustees said Northland still has a long way to go to reach the fundraising goal, and that next week will be critical.
