Eastern Nazarene College, a private liberal arts college in Quincy, announced on Tuesday that it is closing due to financial issues.
“We know this news will come as a shock and disappointment to many, especially those whose lives have been transformed by their affiliation with Eastern Nazarene College through its rich history,” Dr. David W. Bowser, board of trustees chair, said in a statement.
Eastern Nazarene College, which was founded in 1900, has “faced significant financial headwinds in recent years” with the board of trustees and multiple presidents pursuing alternatives to closure, according to the institution.
