==History==
Winthrop University was founded In 1886, when the Peabody Education Board, headed by Robert C. Winthrop, provided $1500 to form the "Winthrop Training School" for women teachers. That year the school opened its doors to twenty-one students in Columbia, S.C., and nine years later in 1895 moved to Rock Hill, S.C.. The school's name had changed in 1893 to "Winthrop Normal and Industrial College of South Carolina". The college opened its admissions to minority students in 1964 and became fully coeducational in 1974. Evolving from a 'training school' to a 'college', and finally to become a comprehensive institution with a graduate division, this growth was reflected in the school's name change in 1992 to "Winthrop University". 〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Winthrop University Chronology )
