"Nova Corp., reeling from a false advertising scandal, is planning to close at least 200 of its 900 or so schools later this month to turn around its struggling operations, sources said Thursday.
The nation's largest language school chain is mainly targeting money-losing branches, but some of the 200 branches are being closed for failure to pay rent, according to the sources."*

I hope that none of the Japan Forum members will be affected by this move, either as a teacher/employee or as a student.
