STRATEGY 3: THE CHESS GAME 6
OTHER EDUCATIONAL MODELS (OEM)
WHITNEY
STOWE
New programs envisioned as “Other Educational Models” (OEM) are intended to open the institution to students and educators who may not otherwise have access to the knowledge base of teachers and administrators at the academy. Like executive education programs at other institutions, the OEM model might eventually have both an academic and residential component housed within a complex of existing buildings, or mini campus, with Graham House as the center. Whitney, French and Stowe could accommodate short term student and/or professional residencies. An adaptive reuse strategy for OEM is thought of as a pilot project to allow time for the program and space needs to evolve.

“Echoing its location at the transition from campus to townscape, the OEM mini-campus will provide an environment where innovative ideas and practices will be launched for use well beyond Andover Hill.” Graham House
