| CAMPUS SUMMARY |
 |
Atlantic Union College had its beginnings as South Lancaster Academy, a secondary school begun in 1882. It became Lancaster Junior College in 1918 and Atlantic Union College in 1922. Its early degrees were BTh and BRE degrees, but in 1933 the college was authorized to grand the BA degree and in 1954 the BS degree. In 1990 authorization was received to grant the MEd degree.
AUC, a Seventh-day Adventist institution, exists primarily to prepare its students for lives of service within the church and in the wider community by providing them with an education founded upon the historic tenets of the Christian faith. The mission therefore is that of developing in its students respect and love for intellectual pursuits, personal, ethical, and social responsibility, faith in a loving and beneficent creator God, understanding of and appreciation for human diversity and dedication to a life of service. |
