March 31, 2008- In a meeting on March 30, 2008, the Antioch College Alumni
Association Board of Directors unanimously passed a resolution calling for
the University Board of Trustees to meet face-to-face with the Antioch
College Continuation Corporation (ACCC) as soon as possible.

Nancy Crow, President of the Antioch College Alumni Board, said today in a
statement: "We strongly urge the University Board of Trustees to sit down
with the ACCC and have a meeting with all possible speed."

She continued, "The continued operations of Antioch College are vital to the
nation and to the world. We ask that the two Boards come together to
consider all possible options."

Recently, the ACCC and the University Board of Trustees broke off
negotiations concerning the transfer of the College to the ACCC, an
independent non-profit corporation controlled by nine distinguished College
alumni.

Since the University Board of Trustees announced the suspension of
operations in June 2007, Antioch College alumni across the country have
rallied to their alma mater's defense. Alumni chapters have grown worldwide.
The Alumni Board is continuing with its fundraising and planning efforts.
