About Messiah College, Pennsylvania
Messiah College is a community of 2,841 people in Cumberland County, about 4 miles south of Mechanicsburg, and it takes its name from the school at its center. The Brethren in Christ Church chartered that school in Harrisburg in 1909, calling it the Messiah Bible School and Missionary Training Home to show its aim of preparing people for Christian service.
Its first classes met in the Harrisburg home of Samuel Rogers Smith, a businessman and church leader who served as the first president, and only 12 students enrolled that first year. Smith had moved his house and businesses out to the farm village of Grantham, and he gave land there for a campus. Old Main went up on that land, and in 1911 the school moved into it.
- Second junior college in PennsylvaniaDuring its first years the school offered high school classes along with a few programs in Bible study. It grew into a junior college by 1921, only the second one in Pennsylvania, and at that point it shortened its name to Messiah Bible School.
- Messiah College from 1951As four-year programs took hold, the school renamed itself Messiah College in 1951. It closed its high school in 1959, added liberal arts courses, and earned accreditation as a four-year college in 1963. In July 2020 it became Messiah University, on a campus that now covers 375 acres.
- Open to all from the startThe Brethren in Christ Church founded the school, but its earliest official statements welcomed students who weren't members of that church. The church no longer owns it, and today its students and staff come from many Christian traditions.
- Clinton and Obama in 2008On April 13, 2008, Messiah hosted the Compassion Forum, where CNN's Jon Meacham and Campbell Brown and members of the audience asked Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama about faith and politics. CNN carried the event live across the country. John McCain was invited as well but declined, pointing to a conflict in his schedule.
