Burlington College to Buy Diocese Property

Burlington College announced that it will purchase the 32-acre North Avenue property from the Roman Catholic Diocese of Burlington. After months of discussions and negotiations, the College and the Diocese have signed a Purchase & Sales Agreement to close on the property within a year and to make it Burlington College’s new campus.

“This will be truly transformative for the College,” said Burlington College President, Dr. Jane O’Meara Sanders. “This new campus will enable us to broaden our academic offerings. We will be able to design editing suites, soundstages and studios for our popular film and photography majors. We will expand our art and music offerings. Our environmental studies, lake ecology and sustainability courses will have a living classroom. We will be able to offer many more events, art openings and guest speakers – all open to the community – on our own campus. The opportunities are limitless.”

Sanders also noted, “The new campus will provide an exceptional opportunity to combine the study of historic preservation and green build/design,” which will be a new focus of their design major. At this point, the College plans to focus on renovating the current buildings and has no plans to add any additional structures. “In keeping with its community mission, the land will remain open to the public and the College will continue the stewardship of this beautiful property,” said Sanders.
