Callison College welcomed its charter class in 1967 and students studied in a non-Western culture for a year. Callison merged with Pacific’s Raymond College, but eventually shuttered in 1982. Callison left a legacy of excellence in international and intercultural education and engaged alumni. In 1987 Pacific founded the interdisciplinary School of International Studies (SIS) that has continued the excellence started by Callison College.
