Harding Administration - Education
Education
Warren Harding attended local schools in Caledonia, Ohio. He never brought the same energy to his studies as he did to physical labor. His grades were average.
In the fall of 1880 he entered Iberia College in Iberia, Ohio (also known as Ohio Central College)—a small two-year school only six miles from his hometown. Iberia had gone into decline by the time Harding attended the school and had little to offer in the way of advanced education.
The most important experience of Harding's college years was his coeditorship of the school newspaper. It became the basis for his interest in journalism and publishing, activities that were to dominate his life in the decades after his graduation from college.
