Stetson University is a private, nonprofit university with four colleges and schools located across the I-4 corridor in Central Florida, United States, with the primary undergraduate campus located in DeLand. In the 2016 ''U.S. News and World Report''s guide to America's Best Colleges, Stetson ranks as the 5th best regional university in the South〔(【引用サイトリンク】title= )〕 and is the only college in Florida on list for best undergraduate teaching in the South. The Stetson University College of Law ranks No. 1 nationally in trial advocacy.
Other recognitions include being ranked No. 7 nationally in ''Washington Monthly'' magazine’s "2015 College Guide” to master's universities, a ranking based on a combination of social mobility, research and service; and being named a military-friendly school.
==History==
Stetson University was founded in 1883 by Henry Addison DeLand, a New York philanthropist, as DeLand Academy. In 1887, the Florida Legislature enacted the Charter of DeLand University as an independent institution of higher learning.
DeLand University's name was changed in 1889 to honor hat manufacturer John B. Stetson, a benefactor of the university, who served with town founder, Henry A. DeLand, and others as a founding trustee of the university. Stetson also provided substantial assistance to the university after DeLand, on account of financial reverses, was no longer able to do so.
Stetson University was affiliated with the Florida Baptist Convention from its founding in 1885 until 1907, when the Convention was defeated in its effort to force Stetson to amend its charter. From 1907 to 1919, the Florida Baptist Convention operated Columbia College in Lake City, Florida, but it failed for lack of adequate financial support. According to Gilbert Lycan, a Stetson history professor who wrote the university's official centennial history in 1983, the relationship between Stetson University and the Florida Baptist Convention was reestablished in 1919,〔Lycan, Stetson University: The First 100 Years (1983), at pp. 123–139, 187–209〕 and continued until 1995, when it was officially terminated.
