McKendree University is a private university in Lebanon, Illinois, about half an hour from St. Louis, and is affiliated with the United Methodist Church. Founded in 1828 as Lebanon Seminary, it is described as the oldest college or university in Illinois. It was renamed McKendree College in 1830 for Bishop William McKendree, and became McKendree University in the 2007-08 academic year. It offers more than 50 undergraduate majors, several master's programs and a doctorate in education, with more than half of classes enrolling fewer than 14 students.
