THIS IS CATAWBA COLLEGE Catawba College was founded in Newton, North Carolina in 1851 by the German Reformed Church. In 1890, Catawba became a coeducational institution, with the first woman graduate completing her studies in 1893. Officials closed the Newton campus in 1923 and moved to its present location in Salisbury, re-opening in 1925. In 1957, the Evangelical and Reformed Church merged to form the United Church of Christ, with which the College maintains affiliation. Catawba seeks to serve the Salisbury-Rowan County community through its programs and services. The Roberston College-Community Center, a facility built as a joint venture with the community over 35 years ago, houses the Shuford School of Performing Arts and showcases musical and theatre productions from the college and the community. Similarly, the college’s athletic facilities have been enhanced be the local community and are available to the local residents as well as the students. In the more than 75 years since Catawba opened its doors in the Salisbury community, it has built a tradition of successful graduates who continue to honor the College by their achievements and enable it through their support to strengthen with each entering class. These graduates include physicians, attorneys, teachers and college professors, corporate executives, actors and musicians, social workers and others who contribute to our society in a variety of ways. From one building, three-quarters of a century ago in Salisbury, Catawba College today has grown to a campus of 27 buildings on 276 acres, with 189 acres devoted to an outstanding ecological preserve. Almost all of the buildings on campus have undergone renovations in the recent past and two new buildings, the Catawba College Center for the Environment and the Catawba Sports Center are now completed. Over 1,300 students representing over 25 states and several foreign countries attend Catawba. The student body is evenly divided among men and women.
