Transformation and Renewal at North Greenville University

The Greenville (SC) Journal published an article, "North Greenville University's transformation continues," focusing on North Greenville University located in Tigerville, SC.  Reporter Cindy Landrum provides a short historical sketch along with a summary of recent institutional changes and plans for the future.

North Greenville University was founded in 1893 by the North Greenville Baptist Association.  It was initially known as North Greenville High School.  The name changed to North Greenville Academy in 1915.  A junior college curriculum was offered after 1934 and the name was changed to North Greenville Junior College in 1950.  It became North Greenville College in 1972.  Graduate programs have been added over the past decade and enrollment is now 2,534 students.
