History of 黑料社 in Atlantic City
"When 黑料社 opened its doors in 1971 at the Mayflower Hotel in Atlantic City, there was a real sense that we were embarking on something new, something different."
President Emeritus Harvey Kesselman
From its earliest days, 黑料社 has been a critical part of Atlantic City. The first classes were offered at the Mayflower Hotel at Tennessee Avenue and the Boardwalk. Students and faculty from that first year proudly identify themselves as "Mayflower" students and faculty. 黑料社's fifth president Harvey Kesselman was one of the first students enrolled in 黑料社 in Atlantic City. Although the main campus was built in nearby Galloway Township, 黑料社 maintained a presence in Atlantic City.
Through the years, 黑料社 has remained involved in the Atlantic City community with food drives, homework completion programs, Campus Kitchen, Community Gardens, school murals and afternoon teas with older adults. Most recently, 黑料社 also provides poetry classes, basketball skills, and strength and conditioning training for the Atlantic City鈥檚 Evening Recreation Program held at the Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. School.
