Jean Barman, in her book Growing Up British in British Columbia, notes that the creation of New Westminster’s Columbian Methodist College was perhaps one of “the most ambitious private educational initiatives in the latter years of the [nineteenth] century” (8). When the denominational college was created, its founders believed they were creating the nucleus of the provincial university with which they would federate. However, the landscape of higher education in Canada had dramatically changed by the early 1900s. University boosters instead favoured a new government-controlled model of higher education in uenced by American state universities; religion and its traditions were now incompatible with this model as the leading force in a modern university. Columbian College stood little chance of ful lling its educational ambitions and began a struggle to survive as a denominational college, theological school, and then as a private high school. Its demise during the nancial troubles of the 1930s was not unique, although many religious colleges adapted and have survived to this day. Resume Dans son livre, Growing Up British in British Columbia, Jean Barman souligne que la creation du Columbian Methodist College de New Westminster, etait sans doute parmi « the most ambitious private educational initiatives in the latter years of the [nineteenth] century » (8). Lorsque le college confessionnel a vu le jour, ses fondateurs croyaient creer le noyau de l’universite provinciale avec laquelle il fusionnerait. Neanmoins, le portrait de l’enseignement superieur au Canada avait radicalement change au debut des annees 1900. Sous l’in uence du modele americain, les champions de l’universite ont plutot favorise un nouveau modele d’enseignement superieur sous controle gouvernemental; rendant le maintien du role central de la religion et de ses traditions incompatibles avec l’universite moderne. Dans ce contexte, le Columbian College avait peu de chance de realiser ses ambitions academiques et il a commence a lutter pour sa survie en tant que college confessionnel, ecole technique, puis comme ecole secondaire prive. Bien qu’il ne soit pas le seul etablissement a disparaitre durant la tourmente nanciere des annees 1930, de nombreux colleges religieux ont toutefois ete en mesure de s’adapter et de survivre jusqu’a ce jour.
