It’s no secret that Christian-based and open-to-all Berea College in Kentucky was the first in the South to integrate and become co-ed. It’s also no secret that its low-income students are required to work on campus in supporting the mission and operations of the college, and it’s a good model to be considered by others for adoption, considering as reported, “No Berea student has paid for tuition since 1892.

Now, Berea is making history again.
