Columbia College Chicago to Relocate Library to Smaller, More Digital Space by Spring 2028

Columbia College Chicago is planning to relocate its library from its current location at 624 S. Michigan Ave. to a smaller space at 33 E. Ida B. Wells Dr. This move, not anticipated before spring 2028, reflects a broader trend in academic libraries towards digitalization. A 2025 survey by the Association of College and Research Libraries indicated that nearly 80% of academic library holdings are digital, with 98.2% of circulation being digital. The new library will be situated in the same building as the Center for Student Success and the Academic Center for Tutoring, aiming to provide easier access to resources for students. Library workers have already begun reviewing books and media for removal to accommodate the condensed space. The construction of the new library space will be funded by a $5 million grant from the Illinois Board of Higher Education, which also supported the Center for Student Success.

Bluefield University Outlines Federal Student Aid Reinstatement Process for Students on Academic Probation

Bluefield University Outlines Federal Student Aid Reinstatement Process for Students on Academic Probation

Bluefield University has detailed its policy for the reinstatement of federal student aid for students who have lost eligibility due to not meeting Satisfactory Academic Progress (SAP). Students can appeal their ineligibility if they were unable to maintain SAP due to extenuating circumstances such as hardship, injury, illness, or the death of a relative. The appeal process requires students to submit a SAP appeal petition, including an explanation for their failure to meet SAP and what has changed to ensure future compliance. They must also work with the Academic Center for Excellence (ACE) to develop an academic plan. If an appeal is approved, the student is granted a probationary period of one semester during which they will receive federal student aid. Students on warning or probation are eligible for reinstatement of federal student aid for one semester only. The university emphasizes that simply sitting out a semester is not sufficient to re-establish eligibility.
