About Judson College

According to Wikipedia, Judson College was a private women's college in Marion, Alabama. It was founded in 1838 and suspended its academic operations on July 31, 2021. History It was founded by members of Siloam Baptist Church in 1838, making it the fifth-oldest women's college in the country at the time of its 2021 closure. Judson was named after Ann Hasseltine Judson, the first female foreign missionary from the United States to Burma . Businesswoman Julia Tarrant Barron and General Edwin Davis King, with the support of other members of Siloam Baptist Church, enlisted the help of Dr. Milo Parker Jewett, a recent graduate of Dartmouth College and Andover Theological Seminary. Jewett had come to Alabama with the goal of establishing a school for young women that would provide them with the same quality of education that young men received at Harvard and Yale. Jewett became the first president of Judson and later of Vassar College. Judson has been affiliated with the Alabama Baptist Convention throughout its history and received funding from the convention.
