Any SUNY schools in trouble or decline?

SUNY Poly did get a bailout package a couple of years ago. Whether it will be able to make payments on the loan component of the package, whether the school is in financial trouble, I do not know. Right now it’s showing a decent endowment per enrollment, whatever that might mean. I believe state schools are dependent on the support of the state and NY state has been responsive to the needs of its schools. It’s the smaller private schools that are on worry lists in terms of viability. If a SUNY should fail, the NY system would step in to ensure that students are not left hanging. No such assurances with private schools.
