History
Founding
Bates College was founded in 1855, as New England's first coeducational college. The founders were abolitionists and several of the institution's first students were former slaves. A decade into the statehood of Maine, due to the Missouri Compromise, the idea of a abolitionist institution came to Oren B. Cheney. Cheney, after graduating Dartmouth College, formed the Maine State Seminary in Lewiston, Maine. After the establishment of the seminary, it soon became an educational institution with the financial support of Benjamin E. Bates, who became the college's namesake. Benjamin E. Bates created a six-person faculty tasked with the teaching of moral philosophy and the classics. Historically, the college was partially offered as an alternative to educational counter-part Bowdoin College. From its founding, Bates had a reputation for academic exactness, and primarily educated the proletariat-class from the state of Maine. Some members of the faculty voiced concern over the college's prestige when the first black and female students arrived, however, " was a relatively progressive institution compared to other academic institutions". The college, under the direction of Cheney, rejected fraternities and sororities on grounds of unwarranted exclusivity. During the 1850's, U.S. Senator Charles Sumner, an american abolitionist, provided the school with its foundational principles. As a mentor and dear friend of Cheney, Sumner created the Motto, 'Amore Ac Studio' or 'With Ardor and Devotion'. Sumner was an influential and instrumental figure in the foundation of Bates. During the American Civil War, Bates played an important role in progressing the rights of blacks and the underprivileged. Because of this, many alumni served in the Civil War (1861–65).

In 1907, at the personal request of Chase and the Board of Trustees, the Maine State Legislature amended the college's charter.

During the late 1920's the Outing Club was established, and numerous academic buildings were constructed such as the Hedge Science Laboratory and the Muskie Archives. During 1943, Bates President Clifton Daggett Gray, established the V-12 Navy College Training Program catering to the educational and tactical needs of the U.S. Navy. It was during this time that future U.S. Attorney General Robert F. Kennedy enrolled along with hundreds of other sailer-students. In 1967, President Thomas Hedley Reynolds lead the idea of teacher-scholars at Bates, and acquired numerous academic, and recreational buildings. Most notably, Reynolds was integral to the acquisition of the Bates-Morse Mountain Conservation Area.
Bates College has changed the educational platform immensely by being one of few prestigious colleges to make the SAT and ACT optional in the admission process, in 1984.
Due to the rejection of Greek life on campus, during the 19th century the school has lead sanctioned social houses open to all Bates students.
