University description (as per official university website)
Marian College is a Catholic college dedicated to excellent teaching and learning in the Franciscan and liberal arts traditions. The college welcomes students of all faiths who seek an educational experience framed within the context of the Franciscan values of dignity of the individual, peace and justice, reconciliation, and responsible stewardship. Marian College grew out of the dedication and vision of Sister Theresa Hackelmeier and the Sisters of St. Francis, Oldenburg, who established a school in Oldenburg, Indiana, in 1851. After a number of transformations, the school became Marian College in 1936. The college moved to Indianapolis in 1937. On July 1, 2009, Marian College will become Marian University.
Marian College is located in the heart of Indianapolis, Indiana—one of America's largest and most vibrant metropolitan areas. Although only 10 minutes from downtown, the safe, beautiful campus is also perfect for people who enjoy peace and quiet.
