| Mission | |
| School mission: | Berea College serves students who possess great academic promise and limited financial resources. Berea College charges no tuition, providing all students with the equivalent of a full-tuition scholarship. All students must work at least 10 hours per week in one of the most ethnically diverse liberal arts colleges in the U.S. The first college in the south to educate black and white, men and women in the same classroom, Berea continues its progressive march into the future with such initiatives as the Ecovillage, a housing complex designed on sustainable living and building principles, and the Center for Excellence in Learning Through Service (CELTS), which provides oversight and direction for all service activities. Ultimately, Berea seeks to graduate service-oriented leaders for the Appalachian region and beyond. |
