Manchester College was founded in Roanoke, Indiana, as the Roanoke Classical Seminary in 1860 by the United Brethren Church. David N. Howe served as the last president of Roanoke Classical Seminary, which was moved to North Manchester to become North Manchester 1 College. He served as Manchester College's first president from 1889-1894 and is known as the founder. The school was renamed Manchester College in 1889 when it moved to North Manchester. In 1932, Manchester merged with Mount Morris College of Mount Morris, Illinois, a Methodist seminary founded in 1839. Manchester is a college of the Church of the Brethren. This continuing relationship is visible in the college's peace studies major - the first of its kind in the US, a campus-wide emphasis on service, and the welcome that students of diverse theological, political and socio-economic backgrounds find on campus.
