	Berea College - About Berea College - History (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
		The first catalog, issued for 1866-67, used the corporate name "Berea College," but the title "Berea Literary Institute" was printed on the cover because it was thought to convey better "the present character of the school." Enrollment that academic year totaled 187 -- 96 fl students and 91 whites.
		Berea's commitment to interracial education was overturned in 1904 by the Kentucky Legislature's passage of the Day Law, which prohibited education of fl and white students together.
		By 1911, the number of students seeking admission to Berea was so great that the trustees amended the College's constitution to specify the southern mountain region as Berea's special field of service.

	Berea College - Review of Admission, Undergraduate Program, and Student Life
		Berea College is a unique school located in the town of Berea, Kentucky that caters to financially needy students in the impoverished Appalachian region who show academic potential.
		The required courses at Berea span a large amount of subject matter; students are required to take courses in reading and writing, cultural studies, social sciences, the arts, natural sciences, Western tradition, contemporary Christianity, and holistic wellness.
		The town of Berea doesn't offer much besides a bounty of churches, and even though the campus is only about 40 miles away from the city of Lexington, it is hard to get there as students are not allowed to have cars on campus unless they are desperately needed.

	African American Registry: Berea College, an educational hallmark!
		Founder John G. Fee, a passionate abolitionist, declared that Berea was founded "in the midst of many privations and persecutions to preach and apply a gospel of impartial love..." Guided by this inclusive Christian message, Berea's founders had a vision of a college and a community committed to interracial education, to the Appalachian region.
		This heritage compelled Berea College to serve all persons regardless of race, creed, color, gender, or class and led the College to draw its students from two immediate communities: African-Americans freed by the American Civil War and "loyal" white mountaineers.
		A significant distinction in the Berea mission is that rather than following the typical tuition-based model, the College early on developed a work program so that its students could take advantage of a private liberal arts education-a tuition-free education otherwise unaffordable to them.
