Colorado Women's College

Robert Cameron, the pastor of Denver's First Baptist Church, who wished to open a women's college in the Western United States that would be equivalent to Vassar College in terms of prestige and academic offerings.

It received its accreditation from the Higher Learning Commission as Colorado Woman's College in 1932, which it maintained until its closing.

The campus newspaper was titled The Western Graphic; other publications included yearbooks and scrapbooks.

The original Colorado Women's College campus, located on Montview Boulevard in South Park Hill, was home to the Women's College until 2001, when it became the Denver campus of Johnson & Wales University.

In 2015, the University of Denver's chancellor, Rebecca Chopp, made the decision to discontinue the Colorado Women's College bachelor's degree program.
