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. 8 A Wesleyan

  • ACI Members Step up to Help Students Enrolled at Macmurray College Jacksonville College to Close After 174 Years April 14, 2020
    ACI members step up to help students enrolled at MacMurray College Jacksonville college to close after 174 years April 14, 2020 Several ACI colleges and universities in Central and Western Illinois have stepped up to help students enrolled at Jacksonville's MacMurray College when the college closes at the end of the academic year in May. In late March, the board of trustees of MacMurray College decided to close the 174-year-old college, citing longstanding financial problems, compounded by declining enrollment, rising competitive costs and a small endowment. The COVID-19 health emergency complicated matters, but it was not a principal reason for the closure, said Board Chair Charles O'Connell. The college has 527 enrolled students, and the closure means that students not graduating will need to enroll at another college to complete their degrees. To help MacMurray College students, staff negotiated transfer agreements with several colleges and universities within a two-hour radius of the school, according to the Jacksonville Journal- Courier newspaper. At least six institutions are ACI members: Blackburn College, Carlinville; Eureka College, Eureka; Illinois College, Jacksonville; McKendree University, Lebanon; Millikin University, Decatur; and Monmouth College, Monmouth. According to the Journal-Courier, academic credits MacMurray students have earned will be valid after the college closes. Partner institutions will offer transfer agreements and scholarships, said MacMurray College President Beverly Rodgers. They have also agreed to waive policies for transferring MacMurray students that would require them to attend a minimum number of class hours to graduate at each partner institution, Rodgers added. MacMurray College is a former ACI member institution.

    CHARTING A NEW COURSE: HIGHER EDUCATION IN OWENSBORO AND DAVIESS COUNTY, KENTUCKY A REPORT TO THE OWENSBORO CITIZENS COMMITTEE ON EDUCATION SEPTEMBER 2005 WILLIAM CHANCE [email protected] N O R T H W E S T E D U C A T I O N R E S E A R C H C E N T E R 4218 Leavelle NW, Olympia, Washington 98502 phone: 360-866-4651 fax: 360-866-4652 e-mail: [email protected] or: www,nored.us CHARTING A NEW COURSE: HIGHER EDUCATION IN OWENSBORO-DAVIESS COUNTY, KENTUCKY ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS This study was conducted over the course of a year, from May 2004 to May 2005. 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.
