Trinity Christian College is a liberal arts college located in Palos Heights, Illinois, a southwest suburb of Chicago. The college was founded in 1959 by a group of Chicago businessmen who wanted to establish a college providing students with a Christian higher education in a Reformed tradition. Today, Trinity Christian College boasts a traditional student enrollment of just over 1,200 students and offers degrees in 30 fields. The college has also undergone extensive building projects over the past decade to become a modern, technologically rich institution. This college is not to be confused with Trinity International University in north suburban Deerfield. In 1952 Trinity Christian College was founded. By April 1956 this visionary group had drafted a constitution and incorporated the Trinity Christian College Association. The first board of trustees was elected in 1959, and they purchased the Navajo Hills Golf Course in suburban Palos Heights for the campus. After remodeling the former clubhouse and pro shop, the college opened that fall with a class of 37 students taught by five full-time faculty members.
