Southern Vermont College, which operated from 1926 to 2019, was situated on 371 acres on the slopes of Mount Anthony in Bennington, Vermont. The campus, anchored by the historic Everett Mansion, a 1911 colonial revival structure, overlooked the Green Mountains and Bennington Monument. Originally founded as St. Joseph Business School, the institution evolved into a private liberal arts college that offered bachelor's degrees in areas including nursing, criminal justice, and business administration. The college maintained a residential campus with traditional dormitory housing until its closure due to financial challenges and declining enrollment. The former campus property has since been acquired by Southwestern Vermont Health Care for potential future development.
