Atlanta Christian College
From Wikipedia, The Free EncyclopediaAtlanta Christian College (founded 1937) is located in East Point, Georgia. It exists to educate men and women for service in the church and society to the glory of God.

Atlanta Christian College offers degrees in Humanities, Biblical Studies, Preaching and Biblical Studies, Human Relations, Early Childhood Education, Business, Music, and English. The school is dedicated to cultivating students with a solid Christian worldview.
History
The heritage of Atlanta Christian College (ACC) includes the stories of two short-lived institutions, Lamar College (1913-15) and Southeastern Christian College (1915-25), both of which were supported by people of the Christian churches of Georgia and on both of which Judge T.O. Hathcock served as a trustee. This heritage also includes the earliest efforts to bring ACC into existence. Judge and Mrs. Hathcock provided land (part of the farm inherited by Nora Head Hathcock), a building, and financial resources for the Christian School (1925-27) and, beginning in 1928, for Atlanta Christian College.
The Great Depression forced the college to close in 1930, but the founders of ACC were determined this would not be the end of the story. Since 1937, when the doors opened once again, ACC has operated continuously. The school stands in tribute to the vision and tenacity of her founders and of those who have shared their sense of mission and devotion.
