Antioch College is a private liberal arts college in Yellow Springs, Ohio. Founded in 1852 by the Christian Connexion, it began operating a year later with in 1853 Horace Mann as its first president. Antioch was later reorganized with Unitarian support, as an independent nonsectarian college. In 1920, College President Arthur E. Morgan restructured the College to introduce for students the co-operative education or work-study plan.
A separate campus of Antioch University, also located in Yellow Springs, Antioch University McGregor, established in 1988, offers academic programs for adults that are responsive to emerging societal needs.
Each program encourages critical thinking, provides opportunities for collaborative learning, emphasizes cultural diversity and an international perspective, and promotes the integration of life and work experience with academic knowledge. We believe that education is most effective when students, faculty, staff, and administration unite as a community of learners.
The college now has 650 students (2000) and is one campus of the Antioch University System.
Antioch College is a member of the Great Lakes Colleges Association.
