Moved from out West back to a midwest state where the "college" in this public college town has lost almost 50% of its enrollment. The locals at the U act like this is no big deal, but the effects are pretty clear - many of the technical majors are now taught by adjunct faculty who are on semester contracts and get no benefits, and many dorms sit empty and mothballed. Meanwhile we have 17 legal cannabis despensaries in a town (without the students) of 20K. I guess this tells where everyone's priorities are these days.
