College Fjord

College Fjord is a fjord located in the northern sector of Prince William Sound, Alaska. Sixteen tidewater glaciers, most named after renowned US East Coast colleges, make this a picturesque destination for cruise ships.

The names of fourteen of the College Fjord glaciers are Amherst, Baby, Barnard, Bryn Mawr, Crescent, Dartmouth, Downer, Harvard, Holyoke, Smith, Vassar, Wellesley, Williams, and Yale.

In 1964 College Fjord was the epicenter of the Good Friday Earthquake, the most powerful earthquake in U.S. history.
