About

Our Story & History

Adrian College was chartered more than 160 years ago, on March 28, 1859. We sprang from a Wesleyan Methodist theological institute, and we remain affiliated with the Methodist Church to this day.

Institutional Research

The Office of Institutional Research and Assessment handles both institutional research and assessment for Adrian College. We support assessment of student learning, accreditation, program review and institutional effectiveness.

Ribbons of Excellence

In 2007, the academic community at Adrian College adopted the idea of the ribbons to represent its standards of excellence. From the long-standing tradition of the ribbons attached to the shepherd’s crook at graduation, these new ribbons of excellence have been developed to support the College’s mission statement.
