Grinnell College is a selective, four-year undergraduate liberal arts college located in Grinnell, Iowa. The college, originally known as Iowa College, was the first college to grant a bachelor's degree west of the Mississippi River. It was founded on June 10, 1846, when a group of transplanted New England Congregationalists with strong social-reformer backgrounds organized themselves as the Trustees of Iowa College. Grinnell College has consistently been named among the top 20 liberal arts colleges by the magazine U.S. News & World Report during the past 15 years.
