Pine Manor College (PMC) is a private, liberal arts college located in Chestnut Hill, a suburb of Boston, Massachusetts. It was founded in 1911 and currently serves almost 500 students, 75% of whom live on the campus. PMC was rated the nation's most racially diverse liberal arts college by ''U.S. News and World Reports.'' Pine Manor alumnae represent 60 countries and all 50 U.S. states. ==History== The college was founded in 1911 as Pine Manor Junior College by Helen Temple Cooke, as part of the Dana Hall School in Wellesley, Massachusetts. It was a women-only institution at a time when even wealthy women were generally denied access to higher education. In 1965 the school moved to a estate in Chestnut Hill. The estate, then known as Roughwood, was the residence of Ernest B. Dane, at that time president of the Brookline Savings and Trust. Many of the school's buildings are original to the estate and have been renovated to accommodate the college. In 1977, the school expanded its mission to offer four-year bachelor's degrees, and became Pine Manor College. In September 2014 PMC welcomed its first co-ed class, as it admitted men for the first time in its 103-year history. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Pine Manor College」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
