Schauffler College of Religious and Social Work.

Hide Profile

School founded in Cleveland in 1886 by Henry A. Schauffler for immigrant (women) home missionaries to Bohemian, Polish, and Slovak populations. The school evolved into a four-year college for young women of American and foreign birth in training for careers in education, social work, and religion. Its last students graduated in 1957 from the Schauffler Division of Christian Education at Oberlin's Graduate School of Theology. The Schauffler Division continued to award the M.A. in Christian Education until 1967, when the program merged with Defiance College in Defiance, Ohio.
