Judson Baptist College

Judson Baptist College was a private non-profit 4-year university that was founded to serve the growing baptist community in the Pacific Northwest. Founded in 1956 in the location where Portland Bible College is located today.[1] This college is considered defunct and non-operational, closing its doors in 1985 due to low enrollment and lacking funds.
History
In the early 1980s the college moved to The Dalles, Oregon, into the facility of the Columbia Park Hospital and Training Center.[2]
In 1985 Judson Baptist College closed its doors after falling enrollment and a lack of funds.[3]
The Columbia Park Hospital campus is now the campus of Columbia Gorge Community College.
Athletics and Culture
Judson Baptist is known to have had multiple sports teams in its history, such as baseball[4], basketball[5], and soccer. The school competed in the NAIA and NCCAA divisions of sports.[4] While there is little to no record online directly from Judson Baptist, there are a few sources of information from other institutions such as George Fox University and the Oregon Institute of Technology who have records of their teams playing Judson Baptist in the early 1980s. This includes records of a baseball game lasting 13 innings.[6] The school's mascot was the 'Lancers'. The college also had a college of music. Being a religious institution, much of the music that has been digitized are religious hymns and songs sung by the school's choir.[7]
