The NYT citation given for Harold Lloyd's inspiration says they redeveloped Superman in 1934 and began a four-year quest. I've changed the time references here to reflect that. current

- 23:1323:13, 7 May 2022 diff hist −25 Northeastern University →Network campuses: Changed "financial and declining enrollment troubles" to "financial troubles," because I believe those are the same problem - declining enrollment causes closure only when it dramatically decreases income. (also, it reads more smoothly to me this way)
- 23:1223:12, 7 May 2022 diff hist −75 Northeastern University →Network campuses: Removed "In September 2021, the merger was finalized, creating the Mills Institute," because the deal has yet to receive regulatory approval, and the Mills Institute has not yet been created.
- 23:1023:10, 7 May 2022 diff hist +2 m Northeastern University →Network campuses: Changed "faced financial and declining enrollment troubles" to "claimed." The Mills College board and administration have been challenged repeatedly to produce evidence of financial troubles, even to the extent of being sued by some of their own trustees. They went to court to avoid releasing financial documents to those trustees, and have yet to show evidence of the need for closure.
