Enrollment has been declining for a few years across the entire Art Institute system (they're a nationwide school), and these things snowball -- nationwide, they've just recently fired hundreds of their full-time instructors, which means less dedicated part-timers will be taking over the fewer and fewer classes that are left. I'm a student at another campus and I constantly worry that my school will close before I can finish my decree. They are in turmoil. An instructor told me that recently there was a campus wide meeting at which all employees -- faculty and staff -- were asked for ideas how to turn the school around... which means they have no idea what they're doing.
