f ? Miss Euphemia E. MeCIintock. Southern School News. As president of the College for Women, Miss Euphemia McClintock enjoys the distinction of being tne only woman in South Carolina at the head of an institution for higher learning. Indeed, the list of college presidents for the entire South includes iess LlictlJ. uuc-uau UU^.CU ?> uiuou ill charge of colleges of the first rank. To hold an exceptional position presupposes an exceptional personality, and certainly in this instance tae personality is in keeping with the position. She is probably the best known woman educator in South Carolina. In answer to the request ot' Southern School News for an interview, she received us graciously in her office, from which she so capably adminis ters the affairs of ber organization. The daughter of the prominent Associate Reformed Presbyterian church ^ pastor, Dr. E. P. McClintock, she was born in what was known as the King's Creek community of :\'ewb rry county. She was reared in an atmosphere of educational interest. Her father was chairman of the board of trustees of Erskine college, and it is of interest that he was the donator of the land for the establishment of Mt. Bethel Academy in the community in which he lived. Miss McClintock attended this school until her father moved to New berry. She then went to the Newberry Female Academy, where she had the' privilege of study under Capt. A. P. Pifer and Mrs. W. Y. Fair, each of whom had an excellent reputation as a teacher of young women. Entering the Woman's College of Baltimore, which has recently become known as Goucher college, she was graduated 5-ii 1CQQ in tV>o oo^Anri fOaco whiph thp institution sent out. At the time its various organizations were being planned and Miss McClintock had the pleasure and honor of assisting with the originating of their student government. She worked there four / years, her major work being in the departments of Economics and Sociology. After graduation Miss McClintock coached private pupils in the town of Newberry ror two years. ?tev. n. r. Pell was pastor of the Presbyterian church at Newberry, and when he was B invited to become president of the Colli lege for Women in Columbia, he asked * her to come with him in the office of lady principal. She worked with him for six years, and succeeded him as president of the College for Women in 1901. During: the summers she lias done work at Harvard, at the University of Chicago, in Paris, and at Columbia University. Other summers (she has traveled both in this country and abroad. Du^ng Miss McClintock's administration. th? caDacitv of the college 'has been doubled. Two new buildings have been erected, one of which, in recognition of her services, the trustees have appropriately named McClintock Hall. The attendance has been more than doubled, there bung last year three hundred and eleven students enrolled. While Miss Mc Clintock does not think that the character of a school should be judged by its numbers, she believes that the character of the academic work has also been strengthened from year to year. She takes due pride in the fact that so many of her graduates have pursued their work into the highest" universities and have become prominent in this and other States in use ful fields of labor. k Miss McClintock has always taken T great interest in social matters. She is one 0? the founders of the South Carolina conference for charities, of which Mr. A. C. Jamison, of Greenwood, is president. Also she is on the executive committee of the associated charities of the city of Columbia. For twelve years she has been a member + nnmrnitfoo nf flip V UI lUfc! CACt Ull t C tyiULmn,vv -. W. C. A., directing w<>rk in North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia, FloriL da and Virginia. Besides she is a V member of the National Sociological congress, of the National Historical society, and of the National Geographical society. Miss McClintock is one of the few .women in the country who have been honored with membership in the honorary fraternity, the Phi Beta Kappa. She was for some years ? ?^ f KrtQrH nf trn<:tpps; a in cmuci \jl iuc v. ^ of Goucher college. . Miss McClintock comes ofc a family of educators. She is closely related to Dr. McCain, of Erskine college, this State, and also io Dr. John T. Young, of the American college in the P.hilliDDines. She^ is more distantly I related to Dr. W. D. McClintock, wiio is with the English department of the University of Chicago. Her sister is ^ at the luad of Miss McClintock's L School for Girls, an institution of established reputation in Boston. The present session's splendid opening and very promising attendance at the College for Women bear testimony to the success Miss McClintock's ad m ministration has attained. But. essentially aggressive, she will not I rest content with the fine work already l done.
