HAVERFORD, a township of Delaware county, Pa., U.S.A., and a village of the same name, 9m. N.W. of Philadelphia, served by the Pennsylvania railroad. The population of the township was 21,362 in 193o. It is a residential suburb and the seat of Haverford college, founded in 1833 by the Society of Friends. This is one of the few older colleges which have remained small. The enrol ment is kept at about 25o, while the endowment has grown to over $4,000,000, permitting a faculty of unusual size in proportion to the number of students, and a total expenditure for each stu dent of about twice the amount he pays for lodging, board and tuition. The Quaker spirit has been carefully cherished. Three times a month the college in a body attends the Friends' meeting.
