#2 Do the seizing on the 31's so they can't pay loans, salaries and rent on the 1st.

#5 I think it’s a bonding company that has to pay now, not the university. Not sure what happens if they don’t have the funds.

#6 Speaking very generally, the surety on an appeal bond has to pay if the defendant doesn't. But then the surety can step into the shoes of the plaintiff and proceed against the defendant. Also, for a bond this size it's likely that the surety got a pile of collateral before signing the bond. It's sort of like mom co-signing your car loan if mom didn't like you very much. (boring, boring...)

#7 Not to mention, the cost of similar bonds for other similar institutions goes up because algorithm.

#8 Oberlin has a huge endowment and a lot of other assets.

They will survive. There will be a long running fund raising appeal however. Wonder how stupid their alumni will be.
