I want to extend to you my warmest greetings, and thank you for visiting our Alderson-Broaddus College website. I believe Alderson-Broaddus College may be of special interest to you. We offer a number of majors on our wooded, hilltop campus and a friendly, face-to-face atmosphere. We offer the special ambiance of a small liberal arts college in a beautiful natural setting, a college where faculty take a personal interest in you, where you are known and appreciated by the entire campus community. Established in 1871, Alderson-Broaddus is a liberal arts institution that is well known for its outstanding health-related programs, which include the nation's first four-year physician assistant program, West Virginia's first college nursing program, and five other health-related majors. But the College is noted for the soundness of its academic options across the board: Our music program is one of the most highly regarded in the region with our music majors routinely taking honors in state, regional and national competitions. Our teacher education graduates are among the most sought after in the region for the creativity and depth of understanding they bring to PreK-Adult teaching. Whatever the field Alderson-Broaddus will give you a thorough grounding that will prepare you intellectually, emotionally and spiritually for the challenges you will face in the twenty-first century. We take the spiritual dimension of your education very seriously. The College maintains close ties with the American Baptist Churches USA, encouraging students in a variety of ways to develop spiritually as well as intellectually. Come and visit our beautiful campus and discover firsthand what an Alderson-Broaddus education can do for you. I look forward to meeting you here on the hilltop! Dr. Stephen E. Markwood
