I do know Northeastern went from being a college with a reputation for being only for those who couldn't afford a usual liberal arts degree (and who had to pay their way with co-ops) to one that is prestigious and sought after. There was the snobby prejudice against it as a working class commuter school, although it was always quite good. The law school had the same rep--a place law enforcement went to get degrees rather than where Ivy Leaguers went to get rich but it currently has a first-rate reputation as a place for social justice, and a combo of traditional and returning students. NE isn't exactly a model for Antioch--it is huge, and the co-ops are professional--but anyone involved in its re-birth can probably help Antioch.
