About
Texas College is a private Christian historically black college in Tyler, Texas, United States. It is affiliated with the United Negro College Fund. It was founded in 1894 by a group of ministers affiliated with the Christian Methodist Episcopal (CME) Church, a predominantly black denomination, which was at the time known as the Colored Methodist Episcopal Church in America. They planned to provide for education of African-American students, who were excluded from the segregated university system of Texas. They planned a full literary, scientific, and classical education for theology, normal training of lower-school teachers, music, commercial and industrial training, and agricultural and mechanical sciences.
