History
History
The university was founded in 1946 by Yasuzo Shimizu. Its name is derived from that of pastor and philanthropist J. F. Oberlin, and the name also shows the university's historical ties with Oberlin College in Oberlin, Ohio, which the university's founder attended. In 2006, the English version of the school name was changed from Obirin Gakuen to J. F. Oberlin University. The junior college of Oberlin University was founded in 1950 and became coeducational in 1999. It was closed in 2007.
