Two small, tuition‑dependent institutions announced closures and teach‑out arrangements this week as enrollment and financial pressures mount across the sector. The Labouré College of Healthcare in Massachusetts will end academic operations in August and has reached an agreement for Curry College to absorb its nursing program and some faculty pending approvals. Separately, Lourdes University in Ohio will close at the end of the academic year; trustees cited declining enrollment and mounting deficits and are working on teach‑outs and transfer agreements while appointing a final president to oversee the wind‑down.
