I think this is part of the fail as there are just too many blogs there.
I just noticed that too. She had one of the more informative blogs. I wonder if her credit card referrals withdrew at the end of last semester...

Does anyone know if she plans to start a new blog?

I'm willing to bet there is a "contact" option on her blog and I know there is one on the Boarding Area home page. Why not ask her instead of speculating here?

And, should she return to producing content, why would you presume that she'd launch a new blog rather than pick back up with the existing one? Why rebuild from scratch when there is already an infrastructure there??

You make way too much sense.

I was just guessing that a competent blogger would continue unless business obstacles appeared, but people also make changes for other reasons. Maybe blogging is not as fun for the writers as it is for readers.

The incompetent ones do, too.

And there's a decent chance that the obstacles were "real life" business related rather than blog business related. That seems to usually be the case in this crowd.
