Crossroads College (formerly Minnesota Bible College) is a four-year, coeducational Christian college in Rochester, Minnesota, which is currently a candidate for accreditation from the Transnational Association of Christian Colleges and Schools.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.crossroadscollege.edu/About/Accreditation )〕 In 2013, Crossroads College lost its accreditation with the Association for Biblical Higher Education. Crossroads is nondenominational and draws students from a variety of Christian denominations. Its strongest support comes from Christian churches and churches of Christ. ==History==
Its roots are in the International Christian Bible College (1913) founded by David E. Olson in Minneapolis, which later was renamed Minneapolis Bible College (1924), then Minnesota Bible University (1932), and Minnesota Bible College (1942). In 1971 it moved to its current location in Rochester. In 2002 it was renamed Crossroads College. Crossroads' original building is still a landmark in Minneapolis, standing at the corner of University Avenue and 15th Street, across from the main gates of the University of Minnesota. Affectionately named, "The Dinky Dome" because of the proximity of the building to Dinkytown in SE Minneapolis, the dome was recently sold to developers who will remodel the original building and add an apartment and shopping complex to the north of the building. The site is distinctive by its large pillars that face University Avenue, but also the large dome that sits above the building's three stories - this dome has served as a landmark for the area since 1913. Crossroads College's present campus in Rochester, Minnesota, is located in Southwest Rochester on of wooded land. Accessed via Mayowood Road and 16th Street SW near Apache Mall, this campus offers one of the best vistas of Southwest Rochester. On campus is an academic building overlooking a small lake, library and student center, music studio, and multiple townhouses for students. Football is played informally on the top of the hill over the campus, and broomball is played in the winter on the pond below the campus.
