Barber-Scotia College

Barber-Scotia College is a private, co-ed, historically black college, located n downtown Concord, NC, just 6 miles from Charlotte Motor Speedway.

The College was founded in 1867 by Rev. Luke Dorland, who was commissioned by the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.), to ‘find a place’and establish an institution in the South, to educate the daughters of freed slaves.
The original purpose of the College was to prepare teachers and social workers to improve the ‘101 of the freedman and to provide a pool of leaders.’ Accordingly, subjects classified as normal, academic, and homemaking were offered in a pattern which anticipated state certification, but which always pointed to the collegiate level.
