The newly expanded college planned to move to Little Rock, Arkansas, but the city of Conway was able to raise $150,000 to keep the school. In 1930 the name was briefly changed to Trinity College but reverted to Hendrix College after opposition by students, alumni and townspeople. The financially troubled "Galloway Woman's College" in Searcy, Arkansas was absorbed by Hendrix in 1933 during the Great Depression.
Dr. Karen K Peterson became the college’s thirteenth president on June 1, 2023.
