Alice Lloyd College is a four-year liberal arts work college in Pippa Passes, Kentucky. It was founded by the Cambridge, Massachusetts-born journalist Alice Spencer Geddes Lloyd in 1923, initially under the name Caney Junior College, as an institution which would educate leaders for Appalachia locally. It became a four-year, bachelor's degree-granting institution in 1980. Alice Lloyd College is accredited by the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools (SACS).
Their choir is called the Voices of Appalachia. They assist in collecting donations at various parts of the United States.
