Randolph-Macon Woman's College
Randolph-Macon Woman's College is a private liberal arts women's college located in Lynchburg, Virginia. Founded in 1893, the school enrolls 760 students.
RMWC offers programs of study leading to a bachelor's degree in business, education, health services, and the liberal arts.
The college was founded by William Waugh Smith, then-president of Randolph-Macon College, under Randolph-Macon's charter after failing to introduce co-education to the college; however, the college has been governed by a separate board of trustees since 1953.
Notable alumnae include Nobel Prize-winning author Pearl S. Buck and U.S. Senator Blanche Lincoln.
