The Bloom-Wilson Intercultural House

Harriet's House

Located at 565 College Drive in Powell, the Bloom-Wilson Intercultural House:

• Provides a “home away from home” for students from far away.
• Promotes programs that demonstrate mutual respect and cooperation between cultures.

NWC’s strong humanities program and international initiatives was recognized by the National Endowment for the Humanities as a model project for rural communities. That’s why the NEH awarded Northwest College with a grant in August 2011 to help facilitate the creation of an Intercultural House. This grant has allowed NWC to buy a home located next to campus, renovate the home, and establish an endowment to support ongoing programs.
