Samford University is the largest privately supported and fully accredited institution for higher learning in Alabama.Founded by a group of educational, economic, and religious leaders, the school was chartered in 1841 and opened its doors on January 3, 1842, in Marion, Alabama, as Howard College. It has survived two destructive fires and the partial paralysis of the Civil War and Reconstruction. In 1887 it was relocated in Birmingham, and in 1957 the institution was moved to its present campus.
