No, it's not going to do that, SH. "The development group" isn't really a single business of any kind, either public or private, so there is no "it" to go into bankruptcy.

"Its" partners are the University of Pennsylvania, which is nowhere near bankruptcy, and the Hilton chain (there've been no large-scale collapses in the hospitality industry yet, although these are certainly tough times for restaurants and probably for hotels as well). Perhaps there are other real-estate operators with tiny stakes.

Unlikely the Campus Inn matters enough to any of its participants to thrust them into insolvency. Failure of the project might mean a few people who are working on its plans may be cut by their employers or have their careers dampened.

Of more importance to the rest of society, it would cause several major business contracts not to be written and hundreds of people not to get new jobs, precisely as we slide into a global recession. These are the kinds of economic issues at stake for policy-makers in this controversy.

Hi,

Could someone spell this out for me?

Does this mean the campus inn development group is going to file for
bankruptcy?
