"The Franklin Museum of New Athens, Inc., is a museum dedicated to preserving the history of Franklin College. In 1818, abolitionist John Walker, a minister in the Presbyterian Church, established Alma College, in New Athens, Ohio. Walker hoped that Alma College would instill religious and abolitionist beliefs in its students. In 1825, Walker changed the name to Franklin College. This new institution continued Walker's desire to educate students in Presbyterian and abolitionist beliefs."
