I went to grad school at EIU, and currently have a brother on staff there. Funding was restored this summer, so the staff and faculty are cautiously optimistic. I have family and friends who work at other colleges, and they are also optimistic. Chicago State has other problems unrelated to funding, so their path to recovery may be difficult.
My stepson graduated from a town very close to Charlestown, and many in his class went to schools in Indiana, Iowa, and Wisconsin. He bucked the trend and stayed in Illinois. He's at DePaul.
