About

Jacksonville College
On July 20, 1899, a building site consisting of 18 acres was bought for Jacksonville College. The trustees gave a contract for a three-story brick building in May, 1899. This building was not completed for the opening session of 1899-1900. The upper story of the Templeton building on South Bolton Street was rented and school opened in September with an enrollment of 34 students, and before the end of the opening session, the enrollment increased to 85 students. Before the Christmas holiday the three-story brick building was completed and classes were moved to that location. Since that date all activities of the college have been at the present site.

In the original organization the college was organized on the senior college level, awarding the Bachelor of Arts Degree to its graduates. The college functioned as a senior college until 1918, when it was reorganized on the junior college level. The college has continued to function on the junior college level since 1918, awarding its graduates the Associate in Arts Degree and the Associate in Science Degree.
