Spokane College was the name of two colleges in Spokane, Washington. The first operated from 1882 to 1891, and the second operated from 1906 to 1929. The first Spokane College operated from October 1882 to October 1891 on 157 acres just north of the Spokane River.〔 It was founded by Colonel David Jenkins, a Civil War veteran, who later founded Jenkins College in December 1891. When it opened, tuition at Spokane College was $15.〔The Spovangelist, "(U-District Retrospective )." Last modified May 22, 2010. Accessed September 15, 2012.〕 Enrollment peaked at 200 students in 1890, but Spokane College couldn't compete with other nearby institutions: Gonzaga University, the Washington Agricultural College and School of Science (now Washington State University), and the State Normal School (now Eastern Washington University).〔 The second Spokane College was founded in 1906 by the United Norwegian Lutheran Church of America on Spokane's South Hill, and operated until 1929.〔"(South Hill college )." The Spokesman-Review, December 25, 1998 (accessed September 15, 2012).〕 The four-year liberal arts college also operated a law school.〔Brown, Ray. Westminster College, "(Colleges in Washington that have Closed, Merged, Changed Names )." Last modified September 5, 2012. Accessed September 15, 2012.〕 The college closed in 1929 when it was merged into Pacific Lutheran College (now Pacific Lutheran University). Spokane Junior College operated on the site from 1935 to 1942.〔 Spokane Junior College was a reorganization of Spokane University, which operated in the Spokane Valley from 1913 to 1933. The junior college closed in 1942 when it merged with Whitworth College (now Whitworth University).〔Gorseth, Royce. "(Price not as perfect as picture )." The Spokesman-Review, December 16, 1983 (accessed September 15, 2012).〕 During World War II, the building was used as housing for soldiers stationed at Fort George Wright.〔 The building was turned into apartments after the war, and was torn down in 1969 to make way for the Manito Shopping Center, which presently occupies the site.〔"(Shopping Center Site Readied )." Spokane Daily Chronicle, April 22, 1969 (accessed September 15, 2012).〕 == References ==
