  • Lafayette College is a private coeducational liberal arts and engineering college located in Easton, Pennsylvania, USA. The school, founded in 1826 by citizens of Easton, first began holding classes in 1832. The founders voted to name the school after General Lafayette, then in a farewell tour of the country, as "a testimony of respect for [his] talents, virtues, and signal services... the great cause of freedom" (initially Marquis de Lafayette until June 1790, when he abolished and permanently renounced both the nobility and aristocratic title). The student body, consisting entirely of undergraduates, come from 37 U.S. states and 57 countries. In its 2010 edition, U.S. News & World Report ranked Lafayette 35th out of all liberal arts colleges in the nation, while Barron's ranked it among the top 65 "Most Competitive" colleges and universities. Lafayette's endowment is one of the 100 largest in the country, indicating significant wealth, especially for an entirely undergraduate institution. Its 23 Division I sports teams participate in the Patriot League, with its football team claiming the league championship from 2004-2006.
