National Labor College Summary

The following paragraph provided courtesy of wikipedia.

The National Labor College is a fully accredited undergraduate facility affiliated and subsidized by the AFL-CIO to provide its members with the opportunity to receive a college education. The National Labor College was first established as the George Meany Center for Labor Studies in 1969, with an undergraduate program initially sponsored in conjunction with Antioch College. The program became an independent undergraduate institution and was named the National Labor College in 1999, and by 2004 had become fully accredited by the Middle States Association of Colleges and Schools, and the Meany Center officially renamed the National Labor College (George Meany Campus). In the fall of 2006 the new Lane Kirkland Center opened on the National Labor College campus, to provide upgraded facilities expected of a 21st century university, and to greatly expand the College’s hosting capabilities. The National Labor College publishes Labor’s Heritage, a journal of scholarly research and news about the labor movement and labor history.
