Antioch College
Antioch College is a private, coeducational liberal arts college in Yellow Springs, Ohio. Founded in 1850 by the Christian Connection, the college began operating in 1852; politician and education reformer Horace Mann became its first president. It was the founding, constituent college of Antioch University, which Antioch College remained a part of until 2008. The College remained closed for three years before reopening in 2011, and fully separated from the university as an independent institution by 2014.
Antioch is one of only a few liberal-arts institutions in the United States featuring a cooperative education work program mandatory for all students. Democracy and shared governance, especially as a means to activism and social justice, are at the heart of the college. Since 1921 Antioch's educational approach has blended practical work experience with classroom learning, and participatory community governance. Students receive narrative evaluations and academic letter grades.
Antioch College is a member of the Great Lakes Colleges Association,〔(【引用サイトリンク】 url= http://glca.org/our-colleges )〕 the Colleges That Change Lives,〔(【引用サイトリンク】 url= http://www.ctcl.org/colleges/list )〕 the Global Liberal Arts Alliance,〔(【引用サイトリンク】 url= http://liberalartsalliance.org/members )〕 and the Southwestern Ohio Council for Higher Education.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 url= https://www.soche.org/members/soche-members-map )〕 The College has produced two Nobel Prize winners. José Ramos-Horta, the 1996 laureate for Peace, obtained his Master of Arts at Antioch in 1984. Mario Capecchi, the 2007 laureate for Medicine, earned the Bachelor of Science from Antioch in 1961.
==Academics==
Antioch College offers nine majors leading to the Bachelor of Arts degree: Anthropology, History, Literature, Media Arts, Visual Arts, Performance, Philosophy, Psychology, and Political Economy. Additionally, Antioch offers two majors leading to the Bachelor of Science: Biomedical Science and Environmental Science. Students may also develop a self-designed major in either the arts or sciences. Courses are offered on a quarter-based academic calendar. All students are required to take at least two courses in each of the Antioch-designated Liberal Arts traditions: the Arts, Humanities, Sciences, and Social Sciences, as well as four interdisciplinary "Global Seminar" courses from the topics of Water, Food, Energy, Health, Governance, and Education. Additionally, students must achieve "novice-high proficiency" in a second language. Antioch College currently offers coursework in Spanish, French, and Japanese. Students may test out of taking the language requirement by taking the American Council on the Teaching of Foreign Languages Oral Proficiency Interview (OPI), or have passed an AP exam with a score of 4 or 5. Students must also complete a co-op program in each year.
