Don Bosco College was a Roman Catholic seminary located in the Town of Newton in Sussex County, New Jersey in the United States. Opening in 1928, it was operated by the Salesian Order (Missionary Society of the Salesian Congregation) until it was closed in the 1990s and its 179-acre campus sold to the Sussex County government on 22 June 1991 for US$4,209,800.〔Wright, Kevin (Newton NJ: Pearl of the Kittatinny – "The Horton Mansion Former Don Bosco Campus, now Sussex County Community College" ) (Retrieved July 10, 2012)〕〔(Sussex County Clerk's Office ) (Newton, New Jersey), Register of Deeds. ''Deed between the Salesian Society, Inc., a corporation of the State of New York being the parent company of Don Bosco College and the Salesian Society of New Jersey, Inc., and The County of Sussex, a political division of the State of New Jersey (10 May 1989, filed 22 June 1989)'' in Deed Book 1662, page 022 et seq. (Instrument No. 89-39284).〕 When the seminary opened, the campus consisted of the mansion of merchant, leather-goods manufacturer and railroad executive John A. Horton (1807-1858), built in 1857–1858, which became the "St. Joseph’s House of Studies" and improved to accommodate class rooms, dormitories, recreation rooms, and study hall to accommodate about fifty novices.〔 In 1930s, ground was broken on an imposing three-story, red-brick building which was dedicated in 1931.〔 Several other academic buildings and a gymnasium were constructed in the 1960s. Since the purchase, the campus has been converted and expanded as the main campus of Sussex County Community College (SCCC), a public two-year county college. Several new buildings have been built on the campus. ==References== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Don Bosco College」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
