MACKINAC COLLEGE 1965 - 1970 To Learn, To Live, To Lead “Mackinac College began with the acute consciousness of a need. It was founded not on the small idea of establishing a new institution but on the big idea of learning how to meet a pervasive world crisis. It was founded with one central, dominating purpose: to create an education for men and women that would equip them for immediate, effective involvement in the compelling issues of the day." S.
