Gordon College looks into leasing at Mack Park for Office & Residence

According to The Salem News, Gordon College, a private Christian college in Wenham, is inquiring into leasing a vacant building in Pack Park in Salem, MA for a potential office and residence hall for students.

Gordon College already has lease agreements with the city to run programs at Old Town Hall and Pioneer Village. In the spring, it plans to launch a new academic program in historic interpretation linked to those two programs and wants to open an office in the city and secure living quarters for five or six students with an adult supervisor.  It has similar off-campus, satellite programs in Lynn and Gloucester.

The academic program will run from May through November, offer courses right in Salem and provide college credit. College administrators feel it is important for the students to experience Salem by taking courses here and living nearby.
