Spring Hill College Archives
Founded in 1830 by Michael Portier, Mobile's first Catholic bishop, Spring Hill College is the first institution of higher learning in the state of Alabama, the first Catholic college in the Southeast, the third oldest Jesuit college in the U.S., and the fifth oldest Catholic college in the U.S.
Bishop Portier originally purchased 300 acres of land, six miles west of the City of Mobile, to establish a seminary and boarding school. His vision was to provide boys under the age of 12 with an education in classical and modern languages, mathematics, geography, astronomy, history, belles lettres, physics, and chemistry.
In 1847, Bishop Portier invited the Fathers of the Lyons Province of the Society of Jesus to take possession of the College, and, like other Jesuit schools, Spring Hill began to follow a European model of education in which students began attending at nine years old and proceeded through both secondary and collegiate levels.
