Jarvis Christian College, located in the rural East Texas town of Hawkins, is a private historically Black institution affiliated with the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ). Founded in 1912 through a collaboration between the Christian Woman's Board of Missions and philanthropist Major James Jarvis, the college began as an industrial school focused on training African American students. The 243-acre campus features traditional brick buildings and modern educational facilities surrounded by pine forests typical of the East Texas region. The college maintains its liberal arts foundation while offering career-focused programs in criminal justice, business administration, and teacher education, along with specialized programs in solar energy through its renewable energy research center. Jarvis Christian College provides on-campus housing in several residence halls and competes in the National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics (NAIA) as the Bulldogs.
