Eastern Nazarene College in Quincy, Massachusetts, to eliminate all 125 jobs as it closes
Eastern Nazarene College in Quincy said its planned closure will eliminate all 125 jobs, according to a mandated WARN report the school disclosed last week.
The college, described as a small Christian school with just over 500 students, said last month that it will cease operations before the end of the year. In its filing to the state about the layoffs, Eastern Nazarene said the closure will begin in late August and continue through next spring.
Almost all of the 125 layoffs will take effect during that period. A small number of positions may remain active after that time to help close the facility.
The college most recently reported 25 full-time faculty members and 82 part-time faculty members, according to the U.S. Department of Education. Its enrollment was 535, and its graduation rate was 35%.
