General Information I General Information History Agnes Scott had its beginnings in the faith and vision of a small group of Presbyterians in Decatur, Georgia. The organizing of a Christian school was undertaken in July of 1889, and, under the influence of the Reverend Frank Henry Gaines, minister of the Decatur Presbyterian Church, it was decided that the school would be primarily for girls and young women. Founded in that year as the Decatur Female Seminary, the school occupied a rented house and had slightly over $5,000 of subscribed capital. There were four teachers and sixty-three students, and the work offered was of grammar-school level. In the spring of 1890, Colonel George Washington Scott, a leading Decatur businessman, gave $40,000 to provide "a home" for the school. Colonel Scott had earlier provided 40% of the initial capital, and his gifts to the new school constituted the largest sum given to education in Georgia up to that time. In recognition of his interest and support, the Board of Trustees changed the school's name to Agnes Scott Institute in honor of Colonel Scott's mother. Within ten years the Institute was accredited as a secondary school. In 1906 it was chartered as Agnes Scott College, and the first degrees were awarded. The College was accredited in 1907 by the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools and thus became the first college or university in Georgia to receive regional accreditation. In 1920 the College was placed on the approved list of the Association of American Universities and in 1926 was granted a charter by the United Chapters of Phi Beta Kappa. Agnes Scott is also a charter member of the American Association of University Women and of the Southern University Conference. Throughout its history, Agnes Scott has sought to maintain the ideals first ". voiced by its founders: . the formation and development of Christian character" and "a high standard of scholarship." The College is proud of its Presbyterian heritage and continues an informal affiliation with the Presbyterian Church in the United States; but it has been since its founding an independent institution governed by a self-perpetuating Board of Trustees. Its academic program has been based on a firm adherence to the traditional liberal arts disciplines supplemented by academic and extracurricular opportunities designed to meet the changing needs of women in our society. From modest beginnings, the permanent assets of the College have grown to almost $60,000,000 of which some $40,000,000 is in endowment. From a single house on a small lot Agnes Scott has expanded into twenty buildings on some one hundred acres. In its ninety-two year history it has been served by four presidents: Frank Henry Gaines (1889-1923), James Ross McCain (1923-1951), Wallace McPherson Alston (1951-1973), and Marvin Banks Perry, Jr. (1973- ). Agnes Scott College Purpose Agnes Scott was founded for the purpose of "establishing, perpetuating, and conducting a liberal arts college for the higher education of young women under auspices distinctly favorable to the maintenance of the faith and practice of the Christian religion." In a rapidly changing world of increasing mechanization and complexity, the College continues to put its faith in the life of the mind and the spirit and in the liberating power of knowledge.

  • The Classicists of Ohio Wesleyan University: 1844-2014 © Donald Lateiner 2014
    The Classicists of Ohio Wesleyan University: 1844-2014 © Donald Lateiner 2014 When Ohio Wesleyan could hire only four professors to teach in Elliott Hall (and there was yet no other building), one of the four professors taught Latin and another taught Ancient Greek. This I was told in 1979, when I arrived at Sturges Hall to teach the Classics. True or not,1 the story reflects the place of Greek and Latin in the curriculum of the mid-1800s. Our first graduate, William Godman, followed the brutally demanding “classical course.” The percentage of faculty teaching Greek and Latin steadily declined in the Nineteenth and most of the Twentieth century. New subjects and new demands attracted Wesleyan students. Currently we descry another Renaissance of antiquity at Ohio Wesleyan in Classical Studies. Sturges Hall itself was opened in 1855, its original function, as you see in the photo on the left, to serve the campus as library with alcoves divided by subject. Thomas Jefferson and John Quincy Adams studied and revered Greek and Roman writers, their demanding languages, and their culture. Ben Franklin was not interested. For many decades, mere admission to Harvard College required a solid knowledge of Greek and Latin. One of Ohio’s sons who became President of the United States, James A. Garfield, was both a student and a teacher of Greek and Latin. Legend holds that he could write Greek with one hand, Latin with the other--at the same time. I doubt it, but Thucydides tells us humans usually doubt that others can achieve what they know they cannot.

I wanted the weekend to be a celebration of YHC’s rich history and exciting future. I think we accomplished that! My sincere thanks to all who participated in the inauguration and homecoming programs and to all on campus who planned the events and worked so hard to make sure everything flowed smoothly. I also wanted the weekend to benefit YHC, so we combined a great alumni evening with a benefit dinner to raise funds for enhancing the beauty of the campus and planting trees—21 native specimens that will honor the 21 presidents of the college.We raised more than $10,000 in our Gala for Green and will start planting three groves of beautiful, large trees in the spring. If you missed homecoming weekend, you also missed a great opportunity to reflect on our past, present and future. We honored the decades of service by Dr. and Mrs. Harry Hill by naming our newest residence hall for them, we recognized the achievements of many alumni at our Gala for Green, we paid tribute to more than 40 years of dedicated service by the Mullins family, and we looked ahead by breaking ground on a 200-bed residence hall. It was a great weekend of celebration.
