A now defunct Franciscan, 4 years liberal arts college that had once been known for its education and music programs. The school officially closed in 2020, citing the pandemic and financial challenges. These challenges included depreciating assets, falling enrollment, rising costs and excesses amongst the c-suite.
The troubles likely began around 2011, when where was a push to change an introverted student body into an extroverted one. This led to a lot of drama, where favoritism deprived many victims of abuse and harassment the help they needed while allowing rumors and accusations against others to go unquestioned. Issues of racial inequality also began to shine forth as the dorms, which were built around the 2009 class year, were predominantly African American, only for those students to have almost no representation in the graduations that took place during the school's final years. Students had called out the recruiting practices as being predatory, but the admins did not react until a former Dean used the situation to form the premise of her thesis, resulting in her removal around 2015/16.
Demolition of the main building and dorms began in 2022 after the Green Bay Diocese of the Catholic Church rejected a proposal to repurpose the school as an area wide, k-12 school. The diocese opted to build a new school, instead. Also around this time, the school's former president filed suit against the Franciscan Sisters alleging contract violations. This suit was dismissed.

It is a wannabe Lake Forest. Nobody knows if Knollwood is its own town or a part of Lake Bluff. Suzy Swirls is nice I guess?
They think their beach is better than Lake Forest’s but is 1/3 of the size...

A talented, multi-skilled angel who can build anything with his hands. He loves his friends and bugs and flowers and Christmas trees. A great guy to have by your side, because he is just a genuine funny guy that makes your day all the better. Admired and cherished by many, yet keeps a humble poise. Destined for a bright future. A ray of sunshine with an adventurous heart.

snotty kids think they’re better than everyone else. most un-diverse school in the state besides Verona. they’re really sick because Boonton is better than them at sports in the past couple of years. And last school year a girl and two moms from Boonton got tackled during a football game @ ML vs. Boonton and no one heard the rest of the story. sucks to suck but that town isn’t great
Person 1: I’m from Mountain Lakes (and they stand strong like it’s cool)
Person 2: Okay and why should i care?
