Glen Helen was closed to the public on March 25, 2020, in connection with the COVID-19 outbreak. The Antioch College Board of Trustees stated in May 2020 that the college had no plans to reopen the preserve, since it could no longer afford to support the operation. Antioch held talks with the Glen's longtime nonprofit friends group, the Glen Helen Association (“GHA”), and on June 10 an agreement in principle was announced transferring the Glen to GHA for about $2.5 million, payable over 10 years. The transfer of ownership was complete by September 4, 2020. The parties agreed to work together to keep the Glen available to students and faculty as well as the general public.
