Downward Trend

While Prince College was thus shining in the educational horizon, fate dealt a cruel blow to its upward path. The student population which has progressively risen to more than 2000 by 1960, registered a decline, ultimately dropped to an alarmingly low of 9 students in 1997. The College was faced with a threat of closure by the department of education in 1998. The reason or reasons for this disastrous situation have not surfaced, and it can only be presumed that a combination of factors including bad governance, inefficient administration and political maneuvering are responsible
