Mission:
Carson-Newman College offers a Christian, liberal arts education in an environment that encourages open intellectual inquiry and deeper spiritual maturity. Students receive a personalized education in small classes. Caring faculty and staff mentors get to know and nurture each student. We seek to instill Christian virtues in our students and inspire them to use their unique gifts for a lifetime of service.
Vision:
To become a premiere Christian liberal arts college with a world-wide impact.
History:
The college is named for Baptist layman James Harvey Carson (1801-1880) and the Newman family, represented by William Cate Newman (1809-1890). Carson-Newman College was founded in 1851 as the Mossy Creek Missionary Baptist Seminary. The College officially became Carson-Newman College in 1888 upon the joining of the all-male school Carson College with the all-female Newman College.
