School Description
Provided by Lewis College of BusinessLewis College of Business (LCB) is an open admission, two-year College offering both academic and technical programs. The College awards certificates and associate degrees that provide easy entry into the job market or give transfer privileges to a senior college.
Lewis Business College was founded at the beginning of the Great Depression in 1928 by Violet T. Lewis, a double minority—an African-American female. Dr. Lewis was possessed with the idea of providing education at the post- secondary level in office occupations, for African-American young adults in Indianapolis, Indiana. Due to the segregation laws at that time, the private and public post-secondary schools in Indiana did not accept African-American students.
Lewis Business College, later reorganized as Lewis College of Business, not only offered an educational experience to those seeking training; but, also Lewis Business College felt the commitment and responsibility to financially assist those students who desired an education but lacked the financial resources.
Today, Lewis College of Business offers educational preparation in Liberal Arts and three career areas: Business Administration, Computer Information Systems and Office Information Systems. The academic programs at Lewis have traditionally combined theoretical and practical methods of instruction.
During the past 70 years, over 2,500 students have graduated from Lewis College of Business, and close to 27,000 students have attended this institution. Upon graduation, the majority of the alumni immediately enter into the world of work, while others continue their education. Lewis College of Business has always impressed upon its students the value of continued growth through education. The acceptance of this counsel is evidenced by the alumni who have earned Bachelors, Masters, and Doctorate degrees.
