Antioch University

History

Antioch University’s roots began as Antioch College. It first opened its doors in 1852 in Yellow Springs, Ohio. Antioch’s first president, Horace Mann, was a lawyer and Congressman from Massachusetts, a well-known abolitionist and social reformer. He is considered the founder of public education in the United States, believing that a well-educated populace was essential to a strong democracy.

Education

Antioch University provides learner-centered education to empower students with the knowledge and skills to lead meaningful lives and to advance social, economic, and environmental justice.

Research

MERE has several educational initiatives that range from public contact (See: Mount Monadnock Summit Steward Program ) to research and citizen science for high school and college students (See: Adopt A Crevice Community).

We are also hard at work developing materials that hikers, families, classroom teachers, and other educational professionals can use to expand understanding of the mountain and the region. Below is an outline of a curriculum that is expanding and being developed. Check back as many of these entries transform to links.

Career

Antioch University is committed to creating and sustaining a workforce of highly qualified and motivated faculty and staff who are all dedicated to achieving the charitable and educational mission of the university. We proactively embrace best practices and workforce diversity and are committed to providing a positive, discrimination-free environment in which to work and one that encourages its employees to balance work and personal commitments.
