Quitman Male and Female College was a Methodist institution of higher education that operated in Quitman (Cleburne County) from 1870 until 1898. By 1891, this three-story brick building was constructed on a new, fifteen-acre campus. After the college closed in 1898, the building became part of the Quitman Public School and was used until it was destroyed by fire in 1932.
