Emory & Henry College, a historic private liberal arts institution in Washington County, Virginia, is looking to the future as it enacts some employment cuts and changes on campus.  President Jake Schrum admitted during a conversation with the Bristol Herald Courier that even he’s upset with the seven position eliminations and three early retirements, but he said they’re necessary as the college moves forward.  Schrum said the landscape for pure liberal arts colleges is challenging, adding that the future doesn’t look bright for many small institutions across the country.
