Masslive: Hampshire College is seeking a “long-term partner” to help it weather financial pressures that have beset small liberal arts colleges across the country.
“There are bruising financial and demographic realities in play, and we’re not immune to them,” Hampshire College President Miriam Nelson wrote in a letter released Tuesday morning.
The exact form that partnership would take is unclear, and Nelson wrote that the college currently has a balanced budget and a $56-million endowment. But in a signal of the situation’s seriousness, the college is considering not admitting a freshman class this fall — a decision it hopes to make before its Feb. 1 admissions notification date.
“This decision has significant ethical implications, and must take into account the welfare of our prospective students and community as a whole,” Nelson wrote.
As recently as Monday, the college was still recruiting students for admission to its Fall 2019 class on Facebook.
Who would’ve ever guessed that a fake college that doesn’t give out grades and is most well known for producing Trigglypuff wouldn’t be built to last? I’m sure lots of schools will be lining up to take their transfer credits in social justice basket weaving though. I’m not even being facetious, you can literally major in “queer studies” at Hampshire College.
Let’s celebrate the death of Hampshire College by going over some of their greatest blunders in the last few years.
- Hampshire College student Jennie Chenkin openly plots to throw stink bombs during conservative panel at UMass.
- Jennie Chenkin threatens to sue Turtleboy for blogging about her recent criminal activity in Westfield.
Hampshire College bootleg lawyer threatens to sue Turtleboy for blogging about Jennie Chenkin, Trigglypuff, and others.
- Jennie Chenkin writes 2,000 word email demanding that her school sue Turtleboy Sports, which goes viral and gets covered by Breitbart and Barstool Sports.
- Hampshire students revolt after Asian doctor gets chosen as commencement speaker, because Asians don’t count as minorities, and they demand Obama, Beyonce, or a BLT-123 instead.
- Hampshire College virtue signaling shit turd who started a GFM to go to $70K a year school, lambasts “Hampshire College’s capitalist, sexist, rape culture, racist, prison industrial complex, transmisognistic” in graduation speech he wasn’t supposed to give.
- Hampshire College students put flat at half mast after Trump wins, and then burn it.
- Hampshire student goes on Tucker Carlson to defend flag burning and makes his school a nationwide joke.
- Hampshire student threatens to assault any students who voted for Trump and won’t pay her reparations.
- Mob of flag waving Patriots, many of which are wearing Turtleboy gear, show up to protest protesters at Hampshire College.
- Rich white kid from Dover named Alec Larson, who attends Hampshire College and previously posted that the police should kill themselves, immediately runs to the police because mob with American flags tells him he is welcome there.
- Hampshire College students block traffic over imaginary death threats they never received during the flag protest.
- Hampshire College student pretends to be a flag waiving Nazi in Northampton to make it seem like Trump is bring Nazis out of their shells.
- Ratchet Hampshire student viciously attacks female basketball player from visiting team because her braids are cultural appropriation, and she doesn’t get expelled for it.
- Hampshire student starts GoFundMe and raised $11K to build tiny house for Syrian refugees, then sneakily tries selling the house on Craig’s List for $10K because he never researched anything about how the refugee process works.
- Hampshire College administrator won’t let black woman speak on campus because she supports the second amendment.

- Hampshire student threatens to kill professors and students, then whines in viral video and raises money after she gets expelled.
Here’s an idea – maybe if you didn’t employ a lawyer who spent her workday threatening to sue Turtleboy for blogging about the public behavior of students, then you’d have money to stay financially solvent.
How will the world ever survive without this school acting as a SJW factory? Who will our tax dollars go to now? Who will lecture me about what pronouns I’m not allowed to use? Who will take my order at Chick Fil-A? What will Trigglypuff do with her degree in non-binary dance therapy?
RIP Hampshire College.

UMass will probably buy it — GRRRRRR……
My only regret is we won’t have this in Mass for another 30 years. Sex sells, buy honey I’m to work to fuck 25 strangers for money.. see you in a week. How many guys are in a serious relationship with a woman who prostitutes and they have no idea. They probably can’t believe their good luck in meeting a successful business woman or whatever she makes up.
Where the fuck am I supposed to send my offspring now? This is bullshit! I want protests, blockades and we’re going streaking through the quad. Someone, fast alert universal hub to send out a tweet and and we can set up a protest on boston common tonight. Lets shut down mass ave and 93 again! Then lets road trip and shut down the pike, northampton and bring your pussy hats people!!! I want justice! Bring your black lives matter and antifa gear as well! No Justice No Peace!!!
Where’s trigglypuff going to hang out at now?
They’ll have to bring a bucket loader in to move her elsewhere
With a few investors we can turn Hampshire “college” into strip club and gun shop and possibly a legal brothel in the future.
Would you really want to fuck one of those SJW or even see them naked?
One word would clear them out WORK, wouldn’t hire them to clean an outhouse.
A few of the hippy chicks would make great whores they already are it’s what they have been doing on their parents $70k a year besides extacy and smoking weed.
“Knowledge for the sake of knowledge“ college is all fine and well if you don’t graduate from there with over $100,000 in student loan debt. Then your days of wine and roses are quickly over, The ugly real world lays its heavy hand on your shoulder… it’s that moment when you find out bitching about white patriarchy is not going to land you a job that pays $75k, even half that. These small private liberal arts colleges are pricing themselves out of existence. The only people that can afford to attend them are people that don’t need to get a job after they graduate anyway.
Morons
Fat, ugly, and stupid. Everyone of those turds are a triple threat!
True story: I used to work at UMASS. I had two students in my class from Hampshire College. One was pretty intelligent, but he was probably the most socially inept person I have ever run across. He was completely incapable of carrying on a normal conversation about anything. He could write well, articulate his thoughts on paper, and aced every exam. Yet when you talked to him, it was a classic “lights on, but nobody’s home”. The other one was not quite as socially inept. but pretty close. Now that one couldn’t string together a coherent written statement to save his life. Couldn’t spell simple words and had no concept of proper grammar usage. We had a hard time giving proper evaluations on their progress in our program because Hampshire doesn’t give grades or GPA figures. It is no shock that they are going under. When you spend over 200K for a worthless degree that might land you a job on the fry grill at McDs, people are probably going to avoid your college.
Karma in action
Poor SJWs getting left behind by the mothership. I’m sure faculty pensions will remain firmly solvent and let’s be honest; for them it was always about the money. The diplomas on the other hand are worth less than their frames. It’s a harsh lesson but in the real world there are no safe spaces.
With Rao’s Coffee Shop bailing out of Mt Holyoke last September, I think RCS is one place that won’t be hiring any Hampshire refugees.
Mt. Holyoke at least attempts to teach you something that is viable. If RCS wouldn’t put up with that bullshit there, I doubt a HC degree is going to cut it with RCS.
70k a year for a queer studies degree seems like a bargain, can’t understand why that’s not working out for them at Hampshire College I was born in the mid sixties and I’m truly starting to lose my mind at what is going on around here. Pension bs, 123 lgbqt, sanctuary cities, Liz , Marty , Maura, Ayanna, Rachel, etc etc etc. w t f is wrong with people? Can these nitwits not see the destruction that is going on??? I wish I could travel back about 35-40 years and freeze time. Keep voting D if you like it, cuz they are coming for every one of our rights as citzens. I was planning on staying here 8-10 years for my kids, but every day that goes by I realize I’ll be lucky to make it 5.
It’s not even the 70K. There are certain jobs where there is a finite need for warm bodies to fill positions. Queer studies most likely results in a job in academia. I doubt that the ones that already doing that are going to quit. I’m sure they know their job is safe as long as they want and that their expertise is useless in the “real” world.
Same for things like a degree in 14th Century Hungarian Lit. Probably a couple of dozen jobs in the US doing that. Most likely one of those couple of dozen taught you for your degree in it. Again, those people are not going to bail out. Should there be jobs in 14th Century Hungarian Lit? Yeah, but the world doesn’t need too many.
The government (state and Feds) put the screws to private schools like ITT, McCann, Wyotech and Devry. In most cases rightfully so. They took your money and you maybe got what you paid for. But, those are dirty profit based businesses. It defies logic that “Normal” institutes of higher education get a pass until crap like this happens. The main reason is the ITTs of the world make no claim of knowledge for the sake of knowledge. Their business was getting you equipped for a marketable skill.
Hampshire College touts itself as knowledge for the sake of knowledge and educating yourself to make money is dirty. Until of course they need money. Those other places are “Trade” schools.
There’s a poster in the comments to this story on MassLive who says he/she/it received a very good education from there and is doing well in the Valley “Community”. My guess with he/she/its teeth clamped on the government teat.
“PS. I don’t work as a basketweaver. I have been recognized for my work as a young professional in the Valley and have produced many community focused projects that ya’ll do enjoy. 50% of folks don’t graduate, a reflection of the fact that you need to have *it* to complete your degree. The 50% are also the folks who make Hampshire headlines. Reconsider your biases.”
Or it could be that the 50% that don’t graduate are fucking imbeciles. That doesn’t mean the 50% that do, can do anything.
Woody Allen: “Those who can’t do, teach. And those who can’t teach, teach gym.”
Only a couple dozen? Who am I going to go to for recommendations on what to read?
under wrong post of course
Look at the pictures of all those students, does anyone really have to wonder why they are going to shut down? I mean… WTF? they are lucky they were open for as long as they have been…..
Small, worthless private colleges are closing at an increasing rate. Every one that goes away is a boost to our society. The education industrial complex has hit a wall. The asshole administration and faculty of these places have spent decades dehumanizing industrial workers who have lost their livelihoods due to financialization by the globalist elite. Now its their turn.
So sweet.
They should offer Chik-Fil-A the school’s cafeteria contract (rather than giving it to Sodexo) and make millions.
Isn’t it time to start a “conservative arts college?” I’m sure plenty of faculty and students could be found. No SJW’s need apply! Oh, wait, that’s discriminatory. Yeah, go ahead and apply; doesn’t mean you have a right to work or attend. Last I checked, Liberty University was doing just fine, thank you very much.
I wish Triggly Puff had the persistence of Maude the Fraud. So much potential entertainment wasted.
Hampshire College should merge with Williams College. Williams College was in the Huffington Post’s Top 5 colleges against free speech. Yes, The Huffington Post. LOL
I happened to like Hampshire college.
I’d say the dearly departed Trump University provided more value to its paying customers than this communist shithole.
I think clown college provided more value to its paying customers than this communist shithole.
They should merge with Trump University.
It’s long been expected that the next shoe to drop in finance would be student loans. When your degree comes from an institution like Hampshire you basically have no collateral. It’s the participation trophy of degrees and the market is saturated. Colleges and Universities that graduate students who are more fragile than they were when they arrived as freshmen are all destined to meet the same fate.
And this is why comrade Bernie was such a rock star with debt-choked millennials. He was gonna erase their student debts with a stroke of the pen, and stick it to the fat cats in the process. That’ll make a guy popular won’t it?
Hampshire College endowment: $56 million.
Harvard University endowment: $39.2 billion.
Shows there’s a limit to leftist ideology. You can graduate Harvard as a lefty tool but still make big bucks. Queer studies, not so much. Even lefty parents want their kids to be able to do something. The dollar plays no favorites.
Check out the sociology professor from Hamp who looks like she’s in her 50s or 60s. Purple hair and part of the “Resistance” movement.
I was wondering how long it would take before you got to this one.
The Hampshire whale who wailed on the white girl on the Maine basketball team because the white girl had her hair braided is my favorite.
Williams College sounds like they are also close to being in the same boat. go to TheCollegeFix and “The next Evergreen State”.
For fun, look up the bios of the Hampshire faculty. About half aren’t qualified to pour coffee.
How do you survive if you are going to stop freshman from getting on board. Your revenue drops by 25% right off the bat. Freshman is sexist but I’m too lazy to come up with the alternative.
I personally delivered (978) my condolences (-902) to the President, Miriam E. Nelson, (-4856).
I could not hide the happiness in my voice.
Well they can raise tuition to $170K per year. Maybe charge $150 admission to the Eric Carle Museum? Just a couple of ideas
This is the best news ever. But where will these poor oppressed students find another safe space..
Starbucks?
Servicing the train station bathroom glory-holes with both ends. Seriously now, most of these “student’s” parents had the cash to send them to Harvard but the brains to flunk out of community college.
Must be something strange in the water out there. Or have there been any UFO sightings that people haven’t reported to the authorities?
