    A soft-spoken and gentle man, Paul Graham doesn’t seem like a troublemaker. Yet in Yellow Springs a half century ago, Graham made considerable trouble for those who stood in the path of equal rights for all.

    Bill Carter is a data guy. He’s already looking forward to the release, still years away, of the 2020 U.S. Census. And meanwhile, he’s digging into demographic data from community colleges, SAT and ACT testing agencies and other sources to identify and target prospects for Antioch College’s next class — students who will enroll in the fall of 2017.

  • Antioch College— New spokesperson, old ties

    By Audrey HackettNovember 17, 2016

He recently posed in front of his “brainstorming” wall in his new office. (Photo by Audrey Hackett)

    Thirty-six years after graduation, Mark Reynolds is back at Antioch College. The former theater and communications major, class of 1980, now occupies an office on the fourth floor of South Hall.

    By Dylan Taylor-LehmanOctober 27, 2016

    Antioch College President Tom Manley spoke with freshman Eva Westermeyer at a meet-and-greet event earlier this month during welcome week. Westermeyer is one of 44 students in this year’s incoming class, hailing from 15 states. Thirty-nine percent of the class of 2020 are students of color, and 46 percent are the first in their family to attend college. (Photo by Dylan Taylor-Lehman)

    At just 44 students, Antioch College’s incoming class, the class of 2020 represents a moment of both promise and peril for the college.
