Millikin University is an American co-educational, comprehensive, independent, four-year university with traditional undergraduate programs in arts and sciences, business, fine arts, and professional studies, as well as non-traditional, adult degree-completion programs (PACE) and graduate programs in business administration and nursing. Millikin's campus is in Decatur, Illinois and serves approximately 2,400 students with student/faculty ratio of 11.6 to 1 and an average class size of 21 students. Founded in 1901 by James Millikin, a prominent Decatur businessman, it is historically affiliated with the Presbyterian Church (USA). That affiliation no longer exists. The Decaturian, also known as the Dec (official nickname), is the bi-weekly student newspaper. The Decaturian was established in 1903 and its issues are archived online from 1903–1951, made possible by the Digital-Decaturian Project. The Decaturian usually produces 10, 12-page issues a year, with 2, 16-page issues. The paper is currently in two-tone color. The Deprav is produced in the spring and is the April Fool's edition of the Decaturian.
