Founded in 1881 by the African Methodist Episcopal Church, Morris Brown College holds the distinction of being one of the first higher education institutions in Georgia to be owned and operated by African Americans. This pioneering spirit has been a hallmark of the college throughout its history, as it has played a crucial role in providing educational opportunities to generations of African-American students during times when such opportunities were limited.
Today, Morris Brown College continues to uphold its legacy with a current enrollment of 253 students. The college offers a range of programs, including certificates and Bachelor's degrees, with a focus on contemporary and relevant fields. Notable among its offerings are majors in Organizational Management and Leadership, Global Management and Applied Leadership with a unique concentration in Esports Performance, and Hospitality Management. These programs reflect the college's commitment to evolving with the times and providing its students with the skills needed for success in the modern world.
Despite its lack of campus housing, Morris Brown College maintains a vibrant community atmosphere. The college's motto, "To God and Truth," underscores its dedication to moral and ethical education, while its mascot, the Wolverines, symbolizes the resilience and determination that Morris Brown has exhibited throughout its challenging yet inspiring history.
