WHY LAKE ERIE COLLEGE?
Lake Erie College emphasizes the individual, not the "masses." Our classes are taught by professors, not graduate students. Classes are small, allowing students and professors to know one another. We can honestly say that everyone "will know your name." Not only will the faculty and the majority of the Lake Erie staff recognize you, but we also care deeply about our students' success, development, and happiness.
We provide an excellent, inclusive, highly personalized education grounded in the liberal arts tradition.
Guided by hope and care, our students are empowered to lead lives of personal significance and
professional success as global citizens.
Our Campus
Some of the prominent buildings on Lake Erie College's campus in Painesville, Ohio, have been around since its conception. Most notably, College Hall was where some of the first classes were held when the college opened its Painesville location in 1859. Other buildings have come and gone since then, but our campus remains a source of inspiration and historical significance for both our students and the surrounding community.
