Miles College

Mission Statement:

Miles College-a senior, liberal arts, church-related College with roots in the Christian Methodist Episcopal Church and in the tradition of the Historically Black Colleges-motivates and directs its students to seek holistic development that leads to intellectual, ethical, spiritual, and service-oriented lives. Guided by these core values, the Miles College education involves students in rigorous study of the liberal arts as preparation for work and life-long learning; in the acquisition of verbal, technological and cultural literacy; and in critical community participation-all as a prelude to responsible citizenship in the global society which they will help to shape.
