What's the deal w/ College of Notre Dame- which borders Loyola?

<p>Apparently it is a tiny college- maybe 400? Why doesn't Loyola just absorb it like Boston College did with Newton?
What services or facilities do they share besides the library? Do the kids mingle?</p>

<p>The college is very tiny and my son who attends Loyola has no complaints about the library. It’s huge, beautiful and never ever crowded! Certainly not a reason to attend.</p>

<p>BTW the 2 schools do not share any other facility. N. D. is a girls college.</p>

<p>that’s where my MIL graduated from!</p>

<p>Newton sold itself to BC. Notre Dame does not seem in any hurry to do so with Loyola.</p>
