STOCKTON UNIVERSITY ATLANTIC CITY
Continuing Studies Program Does AC Through Walking Tours
Around 30 people braved a heat wave on a tour through Atlantic City鈥檚 former 鈥済ayborhood,鈥 now known as the Orange Loop, on Friday, July 22. Thanks to the occasional ocean breeze and some shadowed areas along the route, participants of the program, sponsored by Stockton鈥檚 Office of Continuing Studies, learned about Atlantic City鈥檚 cultural history.
Diana Strelczyk, assistant director of the Office of Continuing Studies, developed the walking tours in the summer of 2018 after seeing an article about Levi Fox, adjunct professor of General Studies and Atlantic City historian, leading tours of former casinos. Strelczyk thought a similar tour, but encompassing all of Atlantic City鈥檚 history, would be a lot of fun, and that led her to develop the program with Fox.
