Lincoln College to close after 157 years due ransomware attack

stapp · May 10, 2022

Lincoln College, a liberal-arts school from rural Illinois, says it will close its doors later this month, 157 years since its founding and following a brutal hit on its finances from the COVID-19 pandemic and a recent ransomware attack.
This decision was made even harder with the college having survived multiple disasters, including a major fire in 1912, the Spanish flu, the Great Depression, the World Wars, and the 2008 global financial crisis.
However, a December ransomware attack was the final straw that made the decision to shut down on May 13, 2022, one that just couldn't be avoided.
