  • The Contribution of Wofford College to Methodism by Charles F
    The Contribution of Wofford College to Methodism By Charles F. Marsh Benjamin Wofford, a local Methodist preacher in South Caro­ lina, made the following bequest in his will dated February 1,1850: For the purpose of establishing and endowing a college for literary, classical, and scientific education, to be located in my native District Spartanburg, and to be under the control and management of the Methodist Episcopal Church 1 in my native State, South Carolina, I order $100,000 to be delivered to trustees, half, if so much shall be required for lands and buildings, and the balance solely for the pur­ pose of an income-producing endowment ...2 As a result of Wofford's devise the cornerstone of the Main Build­ ing of Wofford College was laid on July 4, 1851 and the institution opened for its first session on August 1, 1854. Since Wofford's will stipulated that from the outset the school was to be under the con­ trol and management of the Methodist Episcopal Church,l it has always been closely related to Methodism in South Carolina. Now it is difficult to assess adequately the contribution of Wofford or any other church college to the denomination to which it belongs. The impact of an educational institution is mainly in terms of human factors. The influence exerted and the service rendered by its students, faculty, administration, trustees, and alumni constitute the contribution of a college in church and state. Though the registrar's office at Wofford keeps through the years a record of the grades made by students, and though the alumni office maintains a file on their accomplishments after graduation, neither can provide more than a minimum of facts and statistics on which to base an estimate of the full contribution made by the college to Methodism.
