About Greensboro College

Rich in tradition and history, Greensboro College was originally chartered in 1838 as one of the earliest women's colleges in the South. "For more than a century and a half, Greensboro College has advanced the status of women, helped realize a progressive vision of North Carolina, and inculcated thousands of students with the ideals of enlightened Christianity through a commitment to Methodism and the liberal arts." Since becoming co-educational in 1954, Greensboro College has helped both men and women to unlock their potential through a continuing emphasis on community, respect, and pride.

Written by Miss Letha Brock in 1913, the poem Our College Home remains representative of the depth of emotion and sentiment which so many alumni have for Greensboro College.
