Passion, Purpose and Service
With each new school year, Guilford renews its commitment to advancing positive social change.
The College's history of real-world engagement dates back to when the Underground Railroad's path ran through our campus woods. That same determined integrity continues at Guilford today. Our students, faculty and staff pursue a range of socially responsible programs designed to meet the challenges facing the school, the greater Greensboro community and ultimately the world.
