Bryan College

During the Scopes Trial, William Jennings Bryan expressed the wish that a school might be established in Dayton to teach from a Biblical perspective. Following his death on July 26, 1925, a national association was formed to establish such an institution in Bryan's memory. William Jennings Bryan University admitted its first class in 1930. Now known as Bryan College, Bryan is an accredited, independent institution offering Associate's, Bachelor's and Master's degrees. Bryan College is founded upon the belief that God is the author of truth; that He has revealed Himself to mankind; that it is His will for man to come to knowledge of truth; and that an integrated study of the arts, sciences, and the Bible will lead to the balanced development of the whole person. The mission statement of Bryan College is "Educating students to become servants of Christ to make a difference in today's world."
