Antioch College

The world can’t wait. Neither can we.

At Antioch College, we don’t just study the future—we build it. Founded in 1850 as a radical experiment in justice and action, we’re a community of activists, artists, and innovators who believe education must be a force for urgent change. In an era of climate crisis, systemic inequality, and political upheaval, Antiochians don’t sit on the sidelines. We act.

This isn’t passive learning. It’s a launchpad for impact:

• Co-Ops That Matter: Alternate classroom time with full-time work in the trenches—organizing movements, designing sustainable farms, or shaping policy where it counts.
• No Ivory Towers: Our faculty are partners in change. Debate grassroots strategies in small seminars, then test them in real time through community partnerships.
• Take Over the System: From day one, you’ll help govern the college. Democracy isn’t theoretical here—it’s practice for transforming the world.
• The Climate Clock is Ticking: Our sustainability labs and farm aren’t just “green features”—they’re training hubs for the frontline.
• Justice Can’t Wait: Antioch was the first to admit Black students and women equally in 1850. Today, we arm students with the tools to dismantle inequity.
• Your Career Starts Here (Not Later): Graduate with 4+ co-ops under your belt—and a network of alumni leading NGOs, eco-startups, and social justice campaigns.

The world needs more than thinkers. It needs doers who’ll challenge power, rebuild systems, and fight for what’s right. If you’re ready to work—not just talk—Antioch is your base camp.
