orehouse College is an academic incubator where the best of the past

and the future converge to create a one-of-a-kind academic village. The

ageless words of Martin Luther King Jr., a 1948 alumnus, are inscribed

on the walls of the chapel named in his honor. The steady gaze of Benjamin E.

Mays—the College’s sixth president who was credited with being the architect of

the school’s international reputation for excellence—peers across the manicured

lawn of Century Campus where, each spring, approximately 500 predominantly

African American men graduate. Historically, Morehouse has graduated more

African American men than any college in the nation.

Men of Morehouse are educated in facilities that are equipped with the latest

technological advances for 21st-century learning, such as the Walter E. Massey

Leadership Center’s smart boards and the state-of-the-art digital music

laboratory in the Ray Charles Performing Arts Center.

Welcome toMorehouse College

Campus Visitors Guide

Morehouse is a member of the Atlanta University Center Consortium, along

with Spelman College, Clark Atlanta University and the Morehouse School of

Medicine. That means our students have all the advantages of a small-college

experience—a small student/teacher ratio, a mentoring culture—while enjoying

the diversity and energy of a university-like setting.

The College’s sprawling 66-acre campus sits in the heart of Atlanta, a dynamic

international city that is home to many popular cultural attractions, including The

King Center, the Georgia Aquarium, Centennial Olympic Park and the CNN Center.

Atlanta is also a college town with students attending a number of institutions such as

Georgia Tech, Emory, Georgia State, Oglethorpe and Agnes Scott.

All of these elements come together to create a collegiate environment uniquely

suited to develop global leaders who will change their communities, the nation and

the world. On this historic campus, the iconic leader of the civil rights movement

was inspired, an Oscar-nominated filmmaker directed his first major production,

the first Rhodes scholar from a historically black college was named, and countless
