History

edit

On December 13, 1831, John Pratt, the college's first president and a graduate of Brown University, inaugurated classes at the Granville Literary and Theological Institution.[5] Situated on a 200-acre (81 ha) farm south of the village of Granville; it was the second Baptist college west of the Allegheny mountains after Georgetown College, which was founded in 1829.[5] While rooted in theological education, the institution offered students the same literary and scientific instruction common to other colleges of the day.[5] The first term included 37 students, 27 of whom hailed from Granville; nearly half of these students were under fifteen years of age.[6] The school's first Commencement, which graduated three classics majors, was held in 1840.[6]

In 1845, the institution, which at this point was male-only, officially changed its name to Granville College.[6] In 1853, William S. Denison, a Muskingum County farmer, pledged $10,000 toward the college's endowment. Honoring an earlier commitment, the trustees accordingly changed the name of the institution to Denison University. They also voted to move the college to land then available for purchase in the village of Granville.[7]

In the years leading up to the Civil War, many students and faculty members at Denison University became deeply involved in the anti-slavery movement. Asa Drury, the chair of Greek and Latin studies, became the leader of a local anti-slavery society. Bancroft House, now a residential hall, served as a stop on the Underground Railroad for refugee slaves.[8][9]

The roots of coeducation at Denison University began in 1832 with the establishment of the Granville Female Seminary, founded a year before Oberlin College launched the first coeducational college in the United States.[10][11] The seminary was superseded by the Young Ladies' Institute, founded in 1859.[12] The Young Ladies' Institute was renamed Shepardson College for Women in 1886.[13] Shepardson College was fully incorporated into Denison University after a transitional phase in 1927.[14][15]

In 1887, Denison inaugurated a master's program, with resident graduates pursuing advanced studies in the sciences.[16] In 1926, the board of trustees formalized a new curriculum that made Denison University an exclusively undergraduate institution.[17]

In the wake of Shepardson College's incorporation, Denison University enlarged its campus. In 1916, the college hired the Frederick Law Olmsted & Sons architectural firm. The resulting "Olmsted Plan" laid a foundation for expansion that has remained the guiding aesthetic for subsequent growth. Expansion during this period included the acquisition of land to the north and east, the relocation of Shepardson College to the east ridge of College Hill, and the development of a new men's quadrangle beyond the library.[18]

While the college's origins were rooted in theological education, Denison University has been a non-sectarian institution since the 1960s.[19] By 2005, the college reached its present size of approximately 2,250 students.[20]

Campus

edit
 
Slayter Hall Student Union (1962)

The campus size is about 1,100 acres (450 ha). This includes a 400-acre (160 ha) biological reserve just east of campus, where professors of sciences, such as geology and biology, can hold class. The Denison Golf Club at Granville, an 18-hole course designed by Donald Ross, is just 0.4 miles (0.64 km) from the academic campus and was donated to the university in 2014.[22] In 2013, the university purchased and renovated the historic Granville Inn.[23]

The first building in the "Greater Denison" plan, Swasey Chapel, was built at the center of the campus. The chapel seats 990 and plays host to notable campus events such as baccalaureate services, lectures, concerts, and academic award convocations.[24]

There are 18 academic buildings on campus. Doane Administration Building, one of the oldest buildings on campus, and Burton Morgan are also on academic quad (spill-over academic building), but they serve administrative purposes. The Bryant Arts Center opened in August 2009. Also on the fine arts quad is Doane Dance Building, Burton Music, Cinema MIX Lab, Burke Performance and Recital Hall, and the Michael D. Eisner Center for the Performing Arts, completed in 2019.[25]

Doane Library today houses more than 500,000 books and bound periodicals.[26]

The campus landscape was designed by the Olmsted Brothers firm.[29] "Greater Denison" was designed based on a layout of quadrangles throughout upper campus, designed to mirror the building functions. This was envisioned to help foster a sense of community among campus groups.[30]

Students

edit

As of the 2023–24 school year, 2,300 students are enrolled at Denison, with a gender distribution of 49 percent male students and 51 percent female students.[2] They come from all 50 states, Washington, DC; and 79 countries, with 78% from out-of-state.[2] A full-time faculty of 292 professors makes the student-to-faculty ratio 9:1.[2]

Thirteen percent of students are first-generation college students, and 37% are multicultural students.[2] Denison was cited by The New York Times in 2014 as one of America's "Most Economically Diverse Top Colleges."[31] In that list, Denison is ranked at No. 11 in the list of the nation's top colleges and universities.[31]

With an endowment stated at over $1 billion in 2023, the endowment per student is over $400,000.[2] While the university will "meet 100% of all demonstrated need," the annual cost of attending is $83,400 for the 2024–2025 academic year.[32] Denison awards nearly $70 million in financial aid each year.[2]

Admissions

edit

Denison University is one of the few universities that guarantees it will meet the financial needs of all admitted students (including international students).[34] The university is need-blind for domestic applicants.[35]

In the admission season for fall 2023 entry, there were more than 14,500 applicants, with 17% of the applicant pool receiving offers to become members of the Class of 2027.[36] Recent trends show an expanding interest from international student populations, with application submissions increasing from 2,447 in 2019 to 3,255 in 2021. Enrollment among international students has also increased during this period, from 97 newly enrolled international students to 131 over the three-year span.[37] Among freshman students who committed to enrolling in Fall 2021, composite SAT scores for the middle 50% ranged from 1330 to 1550, while composite ACT scores for the middle 50% ranged from 30 to 35. Denison practices test-optional admissions. Consequently, the SAT and ACT information reported is not based on the entire student body and instead reflects the middle 50% of only those students who opted to provide their test scores. In Fall 2021, 76% of enrolled freshmen were in the top 10% of their high school classes. U.S. News & World Report categorizes Denison as "most selective". Roughly 15 percent of the incoming class are admitted through athlete recruits. Denison University implements the holistic review admissions process. In addition to the standard results, extracurricular activities, awards, honors, character, community contributions, enthusiasm, specialties, etc. are criteria that are factored into the application process.[38]

In January 2021, Denison University announced it has been selected as a QuestBridge partner college, becoming one of 48 universities in the country to be part of the program.[39][40]
