Westminster College

Westminster College During the mid-1800s, a small band of farsighted men convened to form a college for “the mental and moral training of youth.” They also pledged that “no person will be refused admission on account of Color, Caste or Sex.” This was a bold move on the eve of the Civil War. As Presbyterian Church representatives, the founders selected the name Westminster Collegiate Institute. In 1852, Westminster became the first integrated and unrestricted coeducational college in the country. Today it is one of America’s most admired small liberal arts colleges. Westminster remains on the cutting edge of teaching and learning while valuing the interaction between faculty and students. The New Wilmington campus has been home to successive generations of scholars who have gone on to excel ina wide range of endeavors. Westminster College serves as a tribute to the school’s past and present students, preserving the images of their specialmemories and favorite places.

Cornell University, New York, Campus History, Paperback

Cornell University, New York, Campus History, Paperback Cornell University in Ithaca, New York, was founded after the Civil War as a great experiment: a nonsectarian, coeducational institution where “any person can find instruction in any study.”In the mid-19th century, there were only a handful of colleges that accepted women and even fewer that were nonsectarian. The university charter specifically states that “persons of every religious denomination or of no religious denomination, shall be equally eligible to all offices and appointments.” Today, with colleges of hotel management and labor relations added to the more traditional majors in liberal arts, engineering, business, agriculture, and architecture, Cornell – both an Ivy League university and state land-grant college – truly offers a diverse program of study for a diverse collection of students.

Belhaven College, Mississippi, Campus History, Paperback

Belhaven College, Mississippi, Campus History, Paperback Plagued from its beginnings by fires, financial hardships, and the dismal days of war, Belhaven College in Jackson, Mississippi, has persevered into the twentyfirst century to become a leading liberal arts institution with one of the South’s most diverse small college populations. In this delightful journey into the school’s storied past, vintage photographs illuminate the beloved campus, early classes, annual events, and prolific leaders that friends and alumni of Belhaven will recall with fond memories. Founded in 1894 by Dr. Louis T. Fitzhugh, Belhaven College for Young Ladies occupied a large residence and spacious grounds formerly belonging to Colonel Jones Hamilton and named after his ancestral home in Scotland. Just seven months after it opened, the college burned to the ground on February 7, 1895. New buildings were constructed, and the college reopened in the fall of 1896. Fires would also wreak havoc on the school in 1910 and 1927; the school would go on to affiliate with the Presbyterian Church in the early part of the century; and the post-Depression years would find Belhaven facing an uphill struggle to continue operating with minimal funds. Shaken but not defeated, Belhaven continued to grow and with each passing decade gained more national recognition, whether through its renowned music program, its high standards of academic excellence, or the introduction of intercollegiate sports following the school’s first admittance of male students in 1954. Although the years have brought numerous changes and Belhaven now rests on the cusp of the computer age, the school’s commitment to traditional Christian values still permeates every aspect of a student’s education.

University of Richmond, Virginia, Campus History, Paperback

University of Richmond, Virginia, Campus History, Paperback For more than 175 years, the history of the University of Richmond has been linked to the history of the city of Richmond itself. These photographs tell the story of Richmond and a school founded by Virginia Baptists in 1830.It is the story of two campus locations with one unique mascot – the Spider. In 1914, on the site of an old amusement park, Gothic buildings emerged representing the search for knowledge among spires, vistas, and cloistered gardens. From urban to pastoral settings, these photographs record transitory moments as well as an enduring commitment to the city and education.
