Elon Information

Elon History

Elon was founded in 1889 by the United Church of Christ (then called the Christian Church) as a small liberal arts college mainly for residents of the state. In 1923, a fire roared through campus, destroying most of the buildings. They were immediately replaced, and the school adopted the Phoenix as a mascot. Over the past few decades, Elon has expanded, seeking to encourage more out-of-state students to attend. Only about a third of its undergraduates currently come from North Carolina, and in 2001, the school changed its name to Elon University to reflect its new status as a research institution with graduate programs. It remains affiliated with the United Church of Christ.
