SOUTH CAROLINA COLLEGE.
Centennial of Opening January. 10,
19o5-Progam in full.
Closed in 1862, when its stu
dents were gone to the battle
field and its buildings .were
converted into a confederate hos
pital, the historic South Car
olina Coliege was reopened in
1866, now as the University by
Act passed December 19, 1865,
(anniversay of the orignial
charter), and young soldiers,
returned from War, flocked to
her halls to take up their de
ferred scholastic training. Until
1873 the University did a great
work educsting such men as
Joseph W. Barnwell, Dr. Gyll
Wylie, and Prof. Means Davis.
The dark days of Radicalism
passed, it-was reopened in 1880,
as a College of Agriculture and'
Mechanics, supported by the%
income of the Federal land scrip,
and in 1882, the Legislatur
having made an appropriaion,
and the faculty having- been)
greatly enlarged it began its new
life under its distinguished
President, Dr. John M.McBryde,,
who is now so sueces'sful at the
ead of the Virginia Polytechnic
ind has lately declired the presi
lency of the TJniversity of Vit
ginia. In the legislotion of 1865,1
ind 1879, and 1881, for the re
pening of tne College after the
War, the leader was Charles H.
3imonton, a first honor graduate,
mnd, like DeSaussure, who led in
he founding of the College ,a
reat jurist.
The semi.-centennial was cele
rated Decemper 4, 185.1 ,in con
ection with the commencement,
which before the war'was always
ield in December, the session
)peing in January as from the
beginning. Sijce the Legislature
was in session in December, and
ihere 'was great pride of State
uAia devotion to the . State Ol
egeiB most of Legisltols being
Nlinthe commencement was
d. aagreat State function, the
ting in a.body
k great commencemenit occasion
At which Dr. James H. Thornwell
President, addresse4 the gradq
ting class, and James L. Pet
bigru was centenuial orator.
How iuspiring to every stndeut
whose fortune it was to be in the
College at that time!
It so happens that, the time of
meeting of the Legislature hav
ing been changed by the Consti
tution of 1895, and the secs
and Tuesday in January, 1905,
falling on the 10tn day, the
actual centennial day of the Col
lege will 'witness very much the
same scene characteristic of the
ante-bellnm commencements of
the South Carolina College: the
Legislature will be present in
the spital angi can attend the
elebration in a body, w;th
Judges and State ofitlers, as in
the days of old. -Thus the
ceremonies will be the' most
impressive ever witnessed by this
generation of South Carolinians.
Truly it~ will be a privilege to be
a sadent of the South Carolina
College in the sssign of 1904-5.'
The .universities and' collegas
of the United States, and espe
cially the colleges and schools
within the State, will be invited
to send representatives and all
living alumnpi will be expected to'
be present. From New York,
Hugh Garden, Dr. Wylie, W. A.:
Barber, I. L. Withers, and
others; from Texas, D. F. Hous
ton, President of the Agricultural
College; from Mississippi, T. P.'
Bailey, Professor of Ethology in
the Stt University; from Ala-I
bama, Charls 4. prpwe1ll
Professor of English in the. Stata
University; from North Carolina,
W. C. Coker, Professor of Botand
in the State University; from'
Virginia, Professor Davidson,,
Pritchard and the McBrydes
these and many more whose
eminence in other States attests
te worth of the College since the'
War.
The exercises will continue
through Sunday, Monday and
Tuesday, January 8th to 10th.
On Sunday there will be centen
nial sermon in the morning by
the College Chaplain, and the
academic sermon in the evening
by the JRey. Jphp 4. Rice I D.D
