Austin College

Austin College is a private liberal arts college affiliated with the Presbyterian Church USA located in Sherman, Texas. The college was founded in 1849 in Huntsville, Texas by Princeton-educated missionary, Daniel Baker. The college moved to Sherman in 1876 and went co-educational in 1918, merging in 1930 with the all female Texas Presbyterian College. The school is named after Stephen F. Austin. Sam Houston served on the original board of trustees for the school. The college was the first in Texas to grant a graduate degree, and also is one of the oldest colleges in the state. Austin College offers a five-year teacher education program, and has a very strong pre-med program. The school also has a decent music program, including an A Cappella choir http://artemis.austincollege.edu/acad/music/choirfront.html, a local Symphony Orchestra made up of students and local musicians, and assorted smaller musical ensembles.
