Earlham College is a liberal arts college in Richmond, Indiana. It was founded in 1847 by the Quakers and has approximately 1,200 students. The president is John David Dawson, succeeding Douglas C. Bennett who retired in June 2011 after fourteen years in office. In keeping with Friends' belief in equality, everyone addresses each other at Earlham by his or her first name, without the use of titles such as "doctor" or "professor"; likewise, "freshmen" are referred to as "first year (student)(s)".
While Earlham is primarily a residential undergraduate college, it also has two graduate programs — the master of arts in teaching and the master of education — which provide a route for teacher licensure to students with liberal arts undergraduate degrees.
Earlham College is listed in Loren Pope's book, Colleges That Change Lives. In 2009, Forbes ranked it 91st of America's Best Colleges.
