Changing Lives

Western Maryland College was born from the ideas of one man, Fayette Buell, who sought the support of many to make his dream of a co-educational liberal arts school become a reality.

For more than 150 years, WMC and then McDaniel has thrived because of the support of so many invested in the success of our community.

The 1867 Challenge is an opportunity to showcase the spirit of generosity that has made the Hill such a special place to live and learn.
