Mission Statement History of Kentucky Wesleyan College Our Mission Kentucky Wesleyan College, in partnership with the United Methodist Church, fosters a liberal arts education that nourishes and prepares students intellectually, spiritually and physically to achieve success in life. History The dream of an institution of higher learning held by Methodists from the first days of settlement in Kentucky came to fruition in 1858 when the Kentucky Conference of the Methodist Episcopal Church, South, voted to found a college at Millersburg. Classes began after the Civil War in 1866, and the first commencement, with a class of one, was in 1868. Begun as a training school for preachers, the curriculum expanded rapidly to include a solid basis of instruction in the liberal arts. The College introduced business classes, and by the 1880s, half of the alumni were employed as either teachers or businessmen. Millersburg, located on a branch line railroad, proved too remote for convenient student access. In 1890, the College moved to Winchester, in Clark County, which had by two major rail lines. A fund drive resulted in money for new buildings, and the faculty from Millersburg settled into the hospitable environment of the College's new home. The early Winchester years brought many changes. In a pioneering step, Kentucky Wesleyan admitted women as students in the early 1890s, becoming one of the first institutions of higher learning in the Commonwealth to permit co-education. Intercollegiate athletics also became a part of the Kentucky Wesleyan College scene with competitions in football, baseball and basketball, as well as a broad program of intramural sports for both men and women. P a g e | 8 A Wesleyan tradition began in 1905 when fire destroyed the main building. A limestone ornament that adorned the facade fell to earth, but remained intact. This bust of Minerva, the Roman goddess of wisdom, became a symbol of the Kentucky Wesleyan College spirit. Displayed in a prominent place on the Owensboro campus today, Minerva is a focal point for many Wesleyan student activities. World War I saw the re-introduction of a military science curriculum at the College, patterned

Many in Owensboro and Kentucky played important parts in its development. Although it is not possible to name all of them here, their contributions should be acknowledged. The list begins with the members of the Owensboro Citizens Committee on Education, and particularly the people who presided as chairs during the study period: Rodney Berry, Forrest Roberts, and Marianne Smith Edge. Their advice and suggestions were consistently helpful. The Owensboro Messenger-Inquirer distributed the community resident questionnaire as an insert in the paper and provided a cover story describing the study and the importance of completing and returning the questionnaire. The paper’s invaluable assistance was instrumental both to getting the questionnaire out in a timely manner and to the numerous responses that were sent back to this office – nearly 700 completed and usable questionnaires. The Greater Owensboro Chamber of Commerce and Economic Development Corporation provided lists of local employers for use in the employer surveys.

Declarations that the recession is over provide little comfort when economic indicators paint an ambiguous national portrait and the imminent possibility of defaulting on the national debt sparks only interminable debate devoid of solutions. In such a turbid atmosphere, local economic gains and successes garner less attention and very often remain ignored. Allowing a bleak national outlook to stifle local efforts contributes to overall decline and further weakens the role of local economic progress. For success to thrive, sometimes it must emerge from humble beginnings.
