Hillsdale College is a private, conservative,[4][5] Christian[6][7][8] liberal arts college in Hillsdale, Michigan. It was founded in 1844 by members of the Free Will Baptists.[9] Women were admitted to the college in 1844, making the college the second-oldest coeducational educational institution in the United States. Hillsdale's required core curriculum includes courses on the Great Books, the U.S. Constitution, biology, chemistry, and physics.[4]

Since the late 20th century, in order to opt out of the US government's Title IX requirements, Hillsdale has declined government financial support. Instead, Hillsdale depends entirely on private donations to supplement students' tuition.[4][10][11]
