MISSION AND GOALS OF CRC
PREAMBLE
The founders of Crowley's Ridge College believed:
That God is
That He is our maker
That He has revealed His will to us
That He offers an earthly life of fulfillment and eternal life after death
Out of these beliefs grows a commitment to the pursuit of knowledge within a community of people who recognize God as the ultimate source of that knowledge. This commitment is expressed through the mission and goals of the College.
MISSION
Crowley's Ridge College is a private, two-year, church affiliated but autonomous, co-educational liberal arts college, providing for its students a balanced course of studies appropriate to the first two years of college.

The student population comprises both non-traditional and traditional residential and commuter students. The College is committed to a continual emphasis on the integration of scholarship, critical reasoning, and the spiritual dimension of life. Preserving a commitment to a tradition of small class sizes and a philosophy of open enrollment helps the College maintain a focus on the whole student as an individual.
