| CAMPUS SUMMARY |
 |
Talladega College is a small, private, independent, four-year, co-educational, liberal arts college located in Talladega, Alabama. Among the oldest of the historically black colleges and universities, Talladega College, with assistance of the American Missionary Association, was founded in 1867 by descendants of the slaves who helped build what was to become its first building, Swayne Hall-now a historic site.
Talladega is a college where fostering leadership is a traditon. Since its founding in 1867, it has sought to instill in it graduates the values of morality, intellectual excellence and hard work. The College seeks to nurture the whole person through close, personal relations between faculty and students and by providing experiences that develop a strong personal value system and a sense of responsibility to local community and to the world.
Talladega College is located in an historic district of the city of Talladega, Alabama. The campus is on a plateau about 700 feet above sea level in the heart of a fertile valley in the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains. The campus is a quiet place-away from the distractions and fast pace of urban living. Neighboring cities offer many cultural and entertainment outlets, as well as shopping, restaurants, and theatres. The College is 25 miles east of Birmingham, Alabama , 85 miles north of Montgomery, Alabama and 115 miles west of Atlanta, Georgia, the world's next international city. |
