I'm guessing those words have  never been strung together before.

That does seem rather odd when talking about academia. 
 
The College dates from June 10, 1846, when a group of transplanted New  
Englanders with strong Congregational and social-reformer backgrounds organized 
 as the Trustees of Iowa College. A few months later, Iowa joined the 
Union.  

The first 25 years of Grinnell's history saw a change in name and  
location. Iowa College moved farther west from Davenport, Iowa, to the town of  
Grinnell, named for an abolitionist minister, Josiah Bushnell Grinnell.
