North College Thessaloniki - Historical Review

Historical Review

North College of Thessaloniki, Greece, was established in 1975 as "Makedonikos Ekpedeftikos Organismos - MEO" (Macedonian Educational Organisation). In late 70s the MEO was renamed North College.

Since its establishment, the North College of Thessaloniki operated as an Independent, non-profit-making, Liberal Studies College until 2009, under the legislative decree of the Hellenic Republic, 9/9.10.35.

In 1978, in co-operation with USA Academic institutions and in light of the growing demands of the local employment market, North College of Thessaloniki developed a relevant inspired academic system.

North College began its operation according to the trimester mode and on the basis of a clear modular system.

Until 1993 all courses lead to the Degree after three-year-studies, namely after the completion of a nine-trimester-course.

Famous quotes containing the words historical and/or review:

    The past itself, as historical change continues to accelerate, has become the most surreal of subjects—making it possible ... to see a new beauty in what is vanishing.
    Susan Sontag (b. 1933)

    The thanksgiving of the old Jew, “Lord, I thank Thee that Thou didst not make me a woman,” doubtless came from a careful review of the situation. Like all of us, he had fortitude enough to bear his neighbors’ afflictions.
    Frances A. Griffin, U.S. suffragist. As quoted in History of Woman Suffrage, vol. 4, ch. 19, by Susan B. Anthony and Ida Husted Harper (1902)
