It is situated in Granville, Ohio, 27 miles east of Columbus, the state capital. Founded in 1831 as the Granville Literary and Theological Institution, Deni- •on University was incorporated under its present name in 1854. Since its founding Denison has cooperated with the Board of Educa- tion of the American Baptist Convention, but its teaching has always been nonscctarian, and it accepts students without regard to race or creed. Denison is accredited by the North Central Association of Col- leges and Secondary Schools as a degree-granting institution. It has been certified by the Association since 1913, when it appeared on the Association's first published list of degree-granting institutions. Denison ia also recognized and approved by the Association of Amer- ican Universities, the Ohio College Association, the Ohio State De- partment of Education, the American Association of University Pro- fessors, and the American Chemical Society.
