The mission of the College of Humanities, Arts, and Social Sciences (CHAS) is to provide students with a strong liberal arts foundation for citizenship in a globalized community. As a community of scholars, the College seeks to create and maintain a climate that supports scholarship and promotes a common spirit of inquiry between teacher and student in an open framework of trust and mutual respect.

The College offers 17-degree programs. In addition, by offering courses to support the General Education program, the College provides students with a broad foundation in the liberal arts.

Central State University’s history begins with our parent institution Wilberforce University, named in honor of the great abolitionist William Wilberforce. Established at Tawawa Springs, Ohio in 1856, it is affiliated with the African Methodist Episcopal (A.M.E.) Church and is one of the oldest Black-administered institutions of higher education in the nation.

In 1887, the Ohio General Assembly enacted legislation that created a Combined Normal and Industrial Department at Wilberforce University. The objectives of this new state-sponsored department were to provide teacher training and vocational education, and to stabilize these programs by assuring a financial base similar to that of other state-supported institutions.
