About ABC - Office of the President

Letter from the President

Dear Students, Friends and Supporters:

I am honored that you would take time to visit the Arkansas Baptist College website. I know that God is getting ready to do some awesome things at Arkansas Baptist College, and I hope that, in some way, you will take part in this exciting and challenging journey.

Our historic college was founded in 1884, and through the years it has continued to be a beacon of light for those seeking higher education.

As the only Black Baptist higher education institution west of the Mississippi, ABC offers certificate programs, and two and four year degrees. Offering one of the most affordable tuitions in Arkansas, we strive to attract students who want a personal approach to their education with smaller classes, personal faculty ontact, a sense of community and an education integrated with spiritual principles.

As the college’s 13th President, I see Arkansas Baptist College as an enormous opportunity to reach out and touch those who are seeking love, encouragement, and education to fulfill God’s calling and purpose in life.

Where most institutions reach out to the most gifted students, ABC has a rich tradition of extending its hand to students who are themselves reaching out to a college to be elevated academically and spiritually. The mission of Arkansas Baptist College aligns with my personal life’s work: to make a difference in the lives of those who need it the most. I welcome this awesome venue as an opportunity for me to lead by serving our students and our community, because servant leadership is all about the students and the people we serve.

I invite you to browse our website, and see what we have to offer as an institution and as a leader in our community. At Arkansas Baptist College, we’re proud of our heritage, and proud of the fact that we are building a better tomorrow. . today.

Fitz Hill

President
