A few weeks before classes started, we had a chance to check out the Donda Academy campus founded by Ye (formerly Kanye West). The campus was named after West's late mother Donda West who was a professor and chair of Chicago State University's Department of English, Communications, Media and Theater.
While this fall seems to have been the first time the campus was actually in operation and holding classes in there, #DondaAcademy students will not be able to finish the school year as a result of Ye's recent controversies.
As of today, the Donda Academy campus has been shutdown. There is no telling if the campus will reopen or if Donda Academy is done for good.
If you are curious about what the Donda Academy campus looked like, make sure to check out this in-depth video for a full Donda Academy campus tour!
