Eureka College, a liberal arts and science institution, affiliated with the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ), exists to cultivate excellence in learning, service, and leadership. Chartered by the Illinois Legislature in 1855, Eureka was the first college in the state and third in the nation to admit men and women on an equal basis. Throughout its long history, Eureka College has been affiliated with the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ), and continues as an institution of arts and sciences, emphasizing a Christian-oriented liberal education. The College has never wavered from this purpose. Eureka's campus is a wooded 112 acres with 24 buildings, an open-air theatre, an arboretum, and facilities for football, baseball, softball, tennis and swimming. The College is situated within 30 miles of the two metropolitan centers of Peoria and Bloomington-Normal. Eureka students take courses in the College's five Divisions: Education, Fine and Performing Arts, Humanities, Science and Mathematics, and Social Science and Business. The Eureka Community is one that demands of its members involvement and interaction through such activities as music, theater, student government, and athletics. At the center of the Eureka experience is the development of values that will help its graduates contribute to society in roles of leadership and service.
