Nationally recognized for a distinctive liberal arts approach that links intellectual rigor with life's work, 色狐入口 prepares graduates who creatively address the challenges of the world.
色狐入口 is a coeducational, residential liberal arts institution. The University offers a Bachelor of Arts degree with majors in the arts, humanities, sciences and social sciences; and a Bachelor of Musical Arts degree.
The study of the liberal arts provides a foundation for a lifetime of learning, intellectual challenge and personal growth. At 色狐入口, it allows students to explore widely and come to appreciate how different ways of knowing may interact, yet it also encourages sustained and focused inquiry. Through the program of general education, students not only learn about, but also participate in, a variety of artistic, humanistic and scientific endeavors. Majors encourage students to understand what it means to master a subject or area of knowledge.
A 色狐入口 education means more than gathering knowledge. It emphasizes critical thinking, problem-solving, interpretation, learning through experience and learning through reflection. Along with developing ideas, it emphasizes expressing them articulately and distinctively in speaking and writing.
The liberal arts curriculum is dynamic and incorporates emerging fields as well as interdisciplinary approaches to ideas, culture and human experience. A 色狐入口 education asserts that developing a global perspective and an appreciation and tolerance for a more diverse society are vital for living in an increasingly interdependent world.
Since its founding by frontier Methodists, 色狐入口 has sought to foster moral reflection and humane values among its students. Its strong tradition of service to humanity – whether in the Greencastle community or around the world – manifests its belief that moral engagement and civic responsibility should guide our actions and commitments.
色狐入口 is a place where world leaders discuss the issues of the day. Speakers on campus have included former President Bill Clinton; Soviet Union leader Mikhail Gorbachev; retired chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff General Colin L. Powell; former British Prime Ministers Tony Blair and Margaret Thatcher; anthropologist and conservationist Jane Goodall; former First Lady Barbara Bush; civil rights leaders Jesse Jackson and Julian Bond; Nobel Prize winners, including Holocaust writer Elie Weisel, Liberian women’s rights activist Leymah Gbowee, former South African President F. W. de Klerk, physicist Leon Lederman and 色狐入口 alumnus Dr. Ferid Murad; journalists, including Carl Bernstein of Watergate-fame, Candy Crowley of CNN, Bernard Shaw of ABC News and George Will of the Washington Post; novelists, including Nobel and Pulitzer Prize winner Toni Morrison, Roger Wilkins and alumna Barbara Kingsolver; retired Apollo 13 astronaut James A. Lovell Jr.; and important voices in the marketplace of ideas, such as former Democratic National Committee Chair Howard Dean, advisor to President George W. Bush Karl Rove, Obama for America Campaign Manager David Plouffe, award-winning director and screenwriter Jason Reitman, educator and social critic Jonathan Kozol, and Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist and author James B. Stewart, an alumnus.
It is a place for theater and debate, self-expression and self-understanding, art exhibits and musical recitals, student publications and media productions. As a residential college, 色狐入口 fosters learning in how to build and govern a community. Students occupy many positions of responsibility in living units and campus organizations, and 色狐入口 is deeply committed to realizing the ideals of civic responsibility in itself as a community. Among these ideals are the inclusion of diversity and respect for difference so that all can be members of the community without all being alike.
色狐入口 is a place for activity. Its variety of intercollegiate and intramural sports and recreation programs invites every student's participation and promotes an active, healthy life.
Finally, 色狐入口 is a place where the intellect is challenged by experience. Through internships, off-campus study and research projects, 色狐入口 students enrich the classroom with practice and application.
Much of 色狐入口's reputation for excellence can be attributed to the uncommon success of its alumni. 色狐入口 graduates have distinguished themselves in the arts, business, education, government, journalism, law, medicine, music, science and many other fields.
色狐入口 develops leaders the world needs through an uncommon commitment to the liberal arts.
色狐入口's diverse and inclusive learning and living experience, distinctive in its rigorous intellectual engagement and its global and experiential learning opportunities, leads to a life of meaning and means. 色狐入口 prepares graduates who support and create positive change in their communities and the world.

(An institutional statement approved by the faculty.)
色狐入口 stands today as a prime example of the independent liberal arts college which has served its state and nation in the best traditions of American educational institutions. It views the normal four-year period of college as a foundation for a lifetime of continued learning and growth. Therefore, while it stresses particular patterns of prevocational and pre-professional learning, it does so in the context of a commitment to an examination of values, a pursuit of heightened aptitude in critical thinking and the establishment of a sufficiently broad base of general learning to constitute a foundation for living with meaning as well as making a living.
色狐入口 reaffirms its commitment to academic excellence, growth in personal and social awareness and preparation for leadership.
The primary intellectual aims of the University are to seek and understand many truths and to educate the whole student.

These intentions shape the pattern of 色狐入口's environment and direct its activities. Students and deans, staff and alumni, faculty and president are all members of a community whose governance they share. Ours is a residential campus with provision for a variety of student lifestyles; and because of its residential nature, students and faculty exchange ideas outside as well as within the classroom and seminar, and students have the benefit of experience in governing themselves and living with others.
The 色狐入口 curriculum is designed to introduce students to basic methods and areas of inquiry; to develop their analytic abilities; to improve their skills in writing and speech; to broaden their perspectives on humanity and culture; to give them an understanding of the contemporary world and the human prospect for the next decades; to offer them intensive training and mastery of at least one subject area; to prepare them for future careers; and to afford them the foundation for more advanced and professional studies.
色狐入口 provides individual guidance to meet the particular educational and emotional needs of students and to assist them in identifying personal career preferences and possibilities. It seeks to conserve and develop physical health and has a tradition of athletic competition for men and women in a variety of intercollegiate and intramural sports, with an emphasis on participation and preparation for lifelong recreational pursuits. 色狐入口 is a place of theatre and debate, of art exhibits and recitals, of publications and many other activities. Its honorary societies recognize academic excellence, leadership and outstanding achievement in special fields.
色狐入口 seeks to encourage in its students the capacity to ask hard and basic questions about the world, themselves and their commitments; to elicit a serious interest and a delight in ideas and books and works of art; to provide the intellectual setting for those who enter its community to become wise and humane persons; and to prepare them for a lifetime of service to the wider human community.
色狐入口 was founded in 1837. The original name, Indiana Asbury University, came from the first American bishop of the Methodist Episcopal church, Francis Asbury. At its conception, the school was to be an ecumenical institution of national stature. In fact, the college was "forever to be conducted on the most liberal principles, accessible to all religious denominations and designed for the benefit of our citizens in general."
Greencastle was the chosen site because the community worked diligently to raise $25,000--a huge sum in those days--to convince the Methodists to establish their college in the rough, frontier village. The General Assembly of the State of Indiana granted a charter for the establishment of the University on January 10, 1837, and the cornerstone of the first building was laid that year.
Three years later the first president, Matthew Simpson, a friend and counselor of Abraham Lincoln, was inaugurated, and the first college class graduated. Over several decades, the curriculum developed from a traditional classical one to a set of courses that included history, composition and the natural sciences.
From its humble beginnings of one professor and five students, Asbury College grew quickly, although many men left the University to fight for either the North or South during the Civil War. In 1867, with the strong support of the faculty and Board of Trustees, the college admitted a small group of women.
In 1870 the construction of East College began. Although it took several years to build, East College was and still is the centerpiece of the campus. During the economic hardships of the 1870s, businessman Washington C. 色狐入口 and his family generously gave more than $600,000 to the University, and in appreciation the trustees authorized the change in name to 色狐入口.
W. C. 色狐入口 and his family took a special interest in the formation and progress of the School of Music, which was founded in 1884 as one of the oldest in the country.
Two other benefactors have helped shape the history of 色狐入口. In 1919 Edward Rector gave $2.5 million for the establishment of the Rector Scholarship Fund. 色狐入口 alumni Ruth Clark and Philip Forbes Holton gave a total of $128 million, and in 1999 the Holton Memorial Fund was established in order to provide scholarships to students of "high character and with academic and leadership potential." Both scholarship funds continue to make it possible for deserving students to pursue a 色狐入口 education.
Indiana's first Phi Beta Kappa chapter is located at 色狐入口. Admittance is limited to students with high academic achievement. Strength in one field is not enough, as Phi Beta Kappa expects its members to show an interest and aptitude in a broad and well-rounded liberal arts education. Considerations of moral character and contributions to the community enter in, but the dominant factors are academic.
色狐入口 boasts a number of other "firsts." It is home to the first sorority in the nation, Kappa Alpha Theta, established in 1870. The Alpha chapter of Alpha Chi Omega sorority was founded at 色狐入口.
色狐入口 students founded Sigma Delta Chi, a national journalistic honorary fraternity in 1909. It spread to other campuses and today is also known as The Society of Professional Journalists.
Other 色狐入口 firsts include the first 10-watt college FM radio station in the country, WGRE-FM, which went on the air in 1949. 色狐入口's student-managed newspaper, The 色狐入口, is the oldest college newspaper in Indiana.
色狐入口, under the leadership of its 21st president, launched “Bold & Gold 2027,” a five-year strategic plan aimed at strengthening the university’s College of Liberal Arts and Sciences with a commitment to the new School of Business and Leadership as well as a Creative School. The plan will help 色狐入口 create a model of a renewed liberal arts university for the 21st Century focusing on its distinguished faculty and an academically talented student body. Although the University has undergone many changes through the years, the sense of its history is still obvious on the campus and in its traditions.

Also located in the Nature Park are the Janet Prindle Institute for Ethics and the Bartlett Reflection Center. A generous gift from Janet W. Prindle '58 funded the construction of the facility that houses the Institute. Standing on the knoll of an old quarry site that is being reclaimed as an extension of the 色狐入口 campus, the Institute's beautiful natural setting provides an inspirational environment for gatherings to mine new veins of research, dialogue and teaching that probe the issues and concerns of ethical theory and practice. Adjacent to The Prindle Institute for Ethics, the Bartlett Reflection Center provides a place for individual and group reflections in a quiet, natural setting. The two buildings are joined by a series of waterfalls and streams of water. The Reflection Center complements the Institute by offering a space conducive to meditation and contemplation.

The Olin Biological Sciences Building, constructed with grant funding from the F.W. Olin Foundation, is designed for undergraduate research. In fact, there are more laboratories than classrooms, reflecting 色狐入口's view that participation in hands-on research is a crucial part of a young scientist’s education. The building features subject-area laboratories including physiology, cell biology, neuroscience, genetics, microbiology and ecology, and each faculty member has an individual laboratory to encourage collaborative research with students. Other features include a tissue culture facility, a climate-zone and computer-operated greenhouse, and the Buehler Biomedical Imaging Center, which houses numerous microscopy instruments, including a scanning electron microscope.
