History
The original name of the college was the Maine Literary and Theological Institution. After Maine separated from Massachusetts, the new legislature conferred upon the school the right to grant degrees. Soon afterwards, in 1821, the college was renamed Waterville College. During the Civil War, the school was on the verge of closing due to many students leaving to fight the war. Gardner Colby, a Boston merchant and Maine native gave a large donation which prevented the college's closure. The college was renamed Colby College in gratitude[5].

In 1871, Colby College was the first all-male college in New England to accept women students. One of the buildings is named after the first woman student, Mary Low, who was the valedictorian of her class[5].

The original campus was located close to the center of Waterville, but the college outgrew it. In the late 1930s, in an effort to keep Colby from relocating to a different community, the city of Waterville deeded 500 acres (2.0 km2) on Mayflower Hill, near the outskirts of the city, to the college. Despite the Georgian Revival architecture and 19th century look of the present-day campus, nearly all of Colby College was constructed after 1950[5].
