Hillsdale, Michigan
About
Hillsdale College is a private Christian liberal arts college in Hillsdale, Michigan, United States. It was founded in 1844 by members of the Free Will Baptists. Women were admitted to the college from its foundation, making the college the second-oldest coeducational institution in the United States, after Oberlin College (1837). A conservative institution, Hillsdale's required core curriculum includes courses on the Great Books, the U.S. Constitution, theology, biology, chemistry, and physics. The college's mission statement identifies it as a "nonsectarian Christian institution". Since the late 20th century, in order to opt out of government mandates tied to funding, Hillsdale has declined both state and federal financial support.
