[edit] History
Founded in 1976 by Marion K. Allman and Cyndi A. Mendell the school was based on the need for a practical, innovative curriculum; a course that keeps up with the times. The historic Gruen building was the first home of the college before purchasing a building in E. Walnut Hills and then recently the acquisition of the Tri-county facility.
In 1979, the school received accreditation and in 1983 became a charter member of The International Council of Design Schools (ICDS).
