Atlantic Union College Closing
Two Massachusetts newspapers reported earlier today that Atlantic Union College in Lancaster, MA will close. Atlantic Union had previously closed in spring 2011 before reopening again for the fall semester 2015. It was unable to regain accreditation or provide a stable stream of revenue. The Fitchburg, MA Sentinel and Enterprise published reporting by Peter Jasinski, "Atlantic Union College announces it is closing after 140 years of operation."
Atlantic Union, affiliated with Seventh-day Adventists, was initially founded as the South Lancaster Academy in 1882. It became Lancaster Junior College in 1918 and the name changed to Atlantic Union College in 1922.
