Reinhardt College

From Wikipedia, The Free Encyclopedia

Reinhardt College is a private four-year co-educational liberal arts college located in Waleska, Georgia, with a satellite campus in Alpharetta, Georgia. Reinhardt is affiliated with the United Methodist Church.

History

In the early 1880s, Captain A.M. Reinhardt and his brother-in-law John J.A. Sharp envisioned a school in Waleska that would give students an opportunity to advance beyond the primary grades. A devout Methodist, Captain Reinhardt requested the North Georgia Conference of the Methodist Church for help in establishing such a school. The Conference chartered Reinhardt Academy in 1883, naming the Reverend James T. Linn as its president and first teacher. In 1884, the institution held its first classes for twelve students in an old wood shop. In its early years, the school provided instruction for all ages and grade levels and a curriculum designed to train teachers and ministers. The academy gradually evolved into a privately supported two-year college and was accredited to offer associate degrees as a Level I (two-year) institution by the Commission on Colleges of the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools in 1953. In 1994, the Commission on Colleges accredited Reinhardt as a Level II (four-year) institution; in that same year, the school awarded its first bachelor’s degrees in business administration.
