On December 4, 1844, Michigan Central College, under the auspices of the Free-Will Baptists, enrolled five students and began classes near this location. Earlier, the newly chosen president, David M. Graham, a graduate of Oberlin College, had been duly settled in a log hut near the old Indian burying ground. In 1845, the college moved to the M-60 site and remained in operation until 1855, when it moved to Hillsdale and became Hillsdale College.
