Christian College in Columbia, Missouri, appears here in 1912, when the school was one of the oldest women's colleges in the state and was affiliated with the Disciples of Christ. Columbia was a small college town in Boone County, shaped largely by the University of Missouri a short distance away, which drew students, faculty, and visitors to the same streets. Its economy also depended on farming and the surrounding agricultural trade, and the town's railroad connections helped move livestock, grain, and goods. For families in Columbia in 1912, the campus was a familiar landmark where young women trained in music, literature, and the sciences, and where the town's churches, social clubs, and public events often gathered.
