Oberlin preserves its minority access amid costs and activism
Oberlin College marked its 180th anniversary while spotlighting its historic hospitality to black students and ongoing efforts to maintain minority access. Enrollment stands at 235 black students of 2,743 with a 12 month cost near 12,600 dollars, and financial aid expanded to sustain diversity despite rising tuition. The school’s radical heritage and Afrikan Heritage House underscore a broader mission, though economists warn enrollment pressures and funding gaps threaten future diversity.
