History of Liberty & <strong>William</strong> <strong>Jewell</strong> <strong>College</strong><br />
Liberty, founded in 1822, is a town of more than 25,000. It is located about 20 minutes from Arrowhead<br />
Stadium and 30 minutes from the Country Club Plaza. Like <strong>William</strong> <strong>Jewell</strong>, Liberty has a lot of history.<br />
Information about that history is available at http://www.jewell.edu/liberty/history.htm. Other information<br />
about today’s Liberty can be found at http://www.ci.liberty.mo.us/.<br />
<strong>William</strong> <strong>Jewell</strong> <strong>College</strong> was founded by the Baptists of Missouri in 1849, and named in honor of Dr. <strong>William</strong><br />
<strong>Jewell</strong>, frontier statesman, doctor and benefactor. <strong>William</strong> <strong>Jewell</strong> <strong>College</strong> was among the first four-year men's<br />
colleges west of the Mississippi. The college became coeducational in 1921.<br />
The campus now consists of 149 wooded acres perched atop rolling hills northeast of Kansas City. Students at<br />
<strong>William</strong> <strong>Jewell</strong> enjoy the best of two worlds: a scenic campus, ideal for quiet study and contemplation, along<br />
with the energizing presence of a vital city just 15 miles away.<br />
