Antillean Adventist University
The Antillean Adventist University (AAU) (''in Spanish:'' Universidad Adventista de las Antillas) (UAA) is a private, coeducational, Christian, and non-profit university in Mayaguez, Puerto Rico. It is a part of the Seventh-day Adventist education system, the world's second largest Christian school system.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title= Seventh-Day Adventist Church )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://education.gc.adventist.org/about.html )〕
The university developed from the merging of two educational institutions: Puerto Rico Academy established in 1946; renamed in 1957 as the Colegio Adventista Puertorriqueño, and Antillian College which moved to Puerto Rico as a result of the Cuban Revolution. In 1989, the school's higher education program was accredited by the Council of Higher Education of Puerto Rico on August 18, 1989.
The university is sponsored by and affiliated with the Seventh-day Adventist Church, and is situated within 284 acres (1.1 km²) of mountainous land with a view of the Atlantic Ocean. AAU offers undergraduate studies in arts and sciences, and graduate studies in arts.
==History up to 1961==
Antillean Adventist University has its roots in Cuba of the early 1900s. After a disrupted educational attempt in 1911, the school became established in 1923. In 1939, the Inter-American Division of Seventh-day Adventists decided to move the campus to Santa Clara from Bartle, Oriente Province and to upgrade the institution to that of a junior college. It was the only educational institution in the Antillian Union which offered courses in Spanish above the primary grades. At the time, the Antillian Union of Seventh-day Adventists included the Bahamas, Cuba, Puerto Rico, Haiti, and Jamaica.
