Covenant College
COVENANT COLLEGE, accredited in December 1971, was
founded in 1955 by the Reformed Presbyterian Church,
Evangelical Synod. It is Christian in commitment, Reformed
in theology, evangelical in outreach, and offers a liberal
arts curriculum with several professional programs. With
some 70 contiguous acres of campus and holdings of more
than 700 acres, Covenant is being developed for an
eventual enrollment of 800 - 1000 students.
The College's 2100 ft. elevation on Lookout Mountain offers
the most spectacular view available from any point in the
Southeast. Its location is noted for great natural beauty
and historic interest dating back to the Civil War. More
than a million tourists visit the Lookout Mountain area each
year. The campus is open to visitors year-round. Majors are
offered in Bible, Missions, Philosophy, History, English, Music,
Biology, Chemistry, Natural Science, Psychology, Physical
Education, and Inter-Disciplinary Studies. There are minors
in the preceding subject areas and in Sociology, Mathe-
matics, Physics, and Education. Courses are also offered in
foreign languages and art.
Professional programs include Medical Technology, Nursing,
Engineering, Teacher Education (certified by the State of
Georgia), pre-medicine, pre-law, and pre-ministerial.
Though a liberal arts college, a prime goal of Covenant is
to educate qualified teachers to meet certification require-
ments in both elementary and secondary education. Covenant
is a vitally Christian College. It believes that "... in
Christ are hid all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge,”
and seeks to make that truth practical in every aspect of
college activity.
