Notre Dame de Namur University (NDNU) is seeking a new buyer for its 46-acre campus following Stanford University's withdrawal from acquisition talks, disappointing NDNU President Beth Martin. Despite the setback, NDNU aims to find a buyer dedicated to honoring the campus's historical significance and community mission. Stanford's decision arises from evolving challenges in the research university landscape and was compounded by NDNU's declining enrollment, which has lingered around 200-300. Stanford had plans to significantly increase student enrollment, reflecting community desires for campus revitalization.
NDNU President Beth Martin expressed disappointment with Stanford's decision not to purchase the campus but remains focused on finding a buyer who respects its historical significance.
Stanford's decision not to buy the NDNU campus stems from increased uncertainties and challenges faced by research universities, compounded by changing institutional dynamics.
