1693 - College of William and Mary founded to educate Anglican clergy
From Today in Christian History by Studylight.org:
1693 - The College of William and Mary was founded in Williamsburg, Virginia for the purpose of educating Anglican clergyman. After Harvard, it is the second oldest institution of higher learning in America.
Sorry Studylight, but the University of Georgia is the nation's oldest college. :-)
