Saint Michael's College, Liberal arts college in Colchester, Vermont, US.
Saint Michael's College is a private liberal arts institution spread across a 440-acre (178-hectare) campus near the Green Mountains and Lake Champlain. The grounds contain academic buildings, residence halls, and recreational facilities that support student life and learning.
The Society of Saint Edmund founded the institution in 1904 to establish Catholic education in Vermont. Over time, it developed from a small school into a firmly rooted college serving the region.
The college maintains a Catholic educational tradition while welcoming students from all faiths to engage in academic and community activities. The campus serves as a space where different perspectives and religious expressions coexist in daily campus life.
Undergraduate programs offer over 40 majors and minors, with graduate options in fields such as education, psychology, and teaching English. The expansive campus can be explored on foot, though visitors should expect hills and pathways throughout the grounds.
During the 1950s, the college sheltered Hungarian refugees and provided them with English language instruction after political turmoil in their homeland. This generosity toward international students became part of the institution's lasting character.
