Historical Sketch of St. Philip’s College

Bishop James Steptoe Johnston, the son of a former slave owner and a member of the St. Philip’s Episcopal Church of the West Texas Diocese, founded St. Philip’s College in 1898. The 121-year-old school, which opened on March 1, 1898, began as a sewing class for black girls with fewer than 20 students in a house located in the area known today as the La Villita Historical Arts Village in downtown San Antonio.

Artemisia Bowden, a teacher and daughter of a former slave, later assumed leadership of the school. Under the direction of Miss Bowden over the ensuing 52 years, St. Philip's underwent monumental transformation, evolving from parochial day school to industrial school to a fully accredited two-year college offering a diverse curriculum. Changes included a move in 1917 from the school's original site to a new location just east of downtown, and an affiliation with San Antonio College and the San Antonio Independent School District in 1942 that marked the end of the college's era as a private institution.

Today, St. Philip’s College is a comprehensive multi-campus institution of the Alamo Colleges, joining four other colleges - San Antonio College, Palo Alto College, Northwest Vista College and Northeast Lakeview College - in meeting the educational needs of San Antonio’s growing and diverse community.

St. Philip’s College is both a Historically Black College and Hispanic Serving Institution.

With an enrollment of more than 13,000 credit students, St. Philip’s is among the oldest and most diverse community colleges in the nation.

Dr. Adena Williams Loston serves as the 14th President of St. Philip's College. She assumed the reins on March 1, 2007, on the occasion of St. Philip’s 109th anniversary.

Artemisia Bowden, Holy Woman

Artemisia Bowden, a teacher and administrator at St. Philip’s College for more than a half-century, received recognition by the Episcopal Church as a Holy Woman. The 78th General Convention of the Episcopal Church in Salt Lake City authorized adding Bowden’s name to the liturgical calendar in “Holy Women, Holy Men: Celebrating the Saints.” August 18 is her designated feast day. Dr. Adena Williams Loston, president of St. Philip’s College, said it was fitting the Episcopal Church recognized Bowden’s service. “Miss Bowden came to San Antonio as a very young person, with no relatives here or network. She had to establish herself in a new community, but she had the church which brought her here,” Loston said. “The only strong relationship she had was with the church.” A graduate of St. Augustine Normal School in Raleigh, North Carolina, Bowden, daughter of a former slave, taught for two years in North Carolina before becoming principal of St. Philip’s. “Our highest ambition is to send from our institution true, God-fearing women, who are not ashamed of the truth and whose characters are spotless,” Bowden wrote in a 1904 report on St. Philip’s. Loston said Bowden deserves the title “Savior of St. Philip’s” because she found ways to keep the school open after the Episcopal Church withdrew its financial support. “To raise funds, she took a quartet of singing students around the country, she bartered chickens and eggs, she discontinued taking a salary and brought her relatives to teach at no cost,” Loston said. Bowden earned a bachelor’s degree from St. Augustine College in 1935 and did graduate work at Columbia University and the New York School of Social Work. She received honorary degrees from Wiley and Tillotson Colleges. She retired in 1954. Today, Bowden is remembered through the Bowden Eye Care & Health Institute, open through the University of the Incarnate Word, and Bowden Elementary School in SAISD. St. Philip’s College has a Bowden Building as well as Artemisia’s, the classroom-restaurant that is part of the Tourism, Hospitality and Culinary Arts Department. Artemisia Bowden was named President Emeritus, St. Philip’s College, by Alamo Colleges Board of Trustees on Sep. 15, 2015.

ACADEMIC COSTUME AND REGALIA

Academic gowns represent a tradition which comes down from the universities of the Middle Ages. At that time they were a common form of dress for faculty and students.

The usual color for academic gowns is black, but the official color of the community college gown is blue. The bachelor’s gown has long sleeves; the master’s gown has slits in the elbows of the sleeves; and the doctor’s gown is trimmed with velvet bands. Caps, originally round, later became square mortarboards.

The hoods once served as cowls which could be slipped over the head for warmth. Hoods are lined with colors of the college or university from which the wearer received his/her degree. The trimming or color of the hood designates the degree.

St. Philip’s College Special Recognition Program

PRESIDENTIAL MEDALLION

The presidential medallion is worn by the President of the College/ University at all Commencement Ceremonies as a sign of honor and regard for the institution’s academic leadership. The medallion is imprinted with the official seal of St. Philip’s College, and is inscribed with the former presidents of the institution and their tenures.

MACE

Historically, the mace is a symbol of authority dating from medieval times when knights carried them during processions leading the way before their kings or other dignitaries. As the tradition grew, the mace became a ceremonial symbol of peaceful leadership, and maces were embellished with jewels and metals. Today, a college/university’s mace represents a symbol of authority and the mace bearer leads the ceremonial procession and is carried before the president or chancellor and platform-party dignitaries during commencement and inaugural and other academic ceremonial processions.
