Re: [lace] Sweet Briar College to Stay Open
Our TV news said that it will be open for the next year while waiting for a judge's decision on litigation. Keep your fingers crossed that it will be in the college's favor. it's a lovely campus. I enjoyed the two Sweet Briar Retreats that I was able to attend. Alice in Oregon -- where we just finished the PNW Lace Conference. We had a good time, good weather, good food, and good friends. I learned the correct way to make a rolled tally. It looks so nice when done right.

[lace] Sweet Briar College to Stay Open
Our Arachne members, Elizabeth Kurella and Clay Blackwell will be celebrating! We've had recent Arachne correspondence about this College in Virginia, because an important private lace collection was donated to it for the academic use of students. Elizabeth had arranged this transfer of lace several years ago. Clay has organized Lace at Sweet Briar programs for several years. Members of Arachne had written how much they enjoyed these lace classes, the teachers, and the college facilities. Buried deep in today's Maine Sunday Telegram is an Associated Press news story: *Settlement sustains women's college in rural Virginia*. This reports that the Virginia attorney general announced a mediated settlement Saturday to keep Sweet Briar College open, using $12-million raised by determined alumnae to keep the college afloat in the upcoming academic year and sweeping out leadership of the 114-year-old school. It will be presented to a judge on Monday, June 22, for his approval and final settlement. For current information, you can plug the College's name into your Search site (such as G**gle) for the next few days/weeks. Lace-related background information is in our Arachne archives.
