NEWBERRY COLLEGE
*
Had Bright Past, Has Brighter Present,
Will Ha>e Brighter
Futur
(By J. Henry Harms, President.)
Newberry college was established
bv rap Lutherans of the State in 1S.~0.
There is no doubt of it. if tlie ":athers"
could come back to Newberry today?58
years after its founding:?and
see the college in its present increase
and prosperity they would exclaim in
grateful praise aud wonder. Although
its buildings were swept away by the
ravages of the war and the college
had to be removed to Wali-alla for a
period of ten years, and although it
was reestablished at Newberry with
trembling fears on the part of some
and supreme courage on the part of
others in the year 1877, and although
the Lutherans of the State were and
are today numerically the weakest
among the leading denominations of
the State, Newberry college has prospered
phenomenally, and today ranks
with the leading ar,! most progressive
colleges of the South. Old
"grads'' coming back to Newberry
after a lapse o: years are surprised at
the changes that have taken place in
buildings and extensions of every
sort. Especially in the last 15 years
has the college grown in size, enroll
merit and general efficiency. More
than half o: the alumni have graduated
since the year 1900. And among
them are men prominent in every
walk of life, and in all other denominations
besides the Luetheran. Indeed,
although Xewberrv college is owned
by the Lutherans of the State, about
half of its enrollment every year is
made up of students of other creeds,
every stduent being unhindered in
the matter of denominational preference.
Turns to Technique.
Newberry colljege for many years
jj^ confined itself to the old line literarv
I and classical courses of instruction,
^ with Greek reauired for entrance as
"well as Latin and the other subjects.
But, aiming to fit the institution for
the widest possible service, the authorities
have from time to time added
courses of study, the chie*. of which
in recent times ias been the course
in electrical and mechanical engineering.
In 1906 Andrew Carnegie
presented the college with a threestory
engineering building, and this
new department was liberally endowed
by the citizens of Xewberrv.
"Newberry Tech" men are being em
pioyea annually oy tne westmgnouse ;
electric works in Pittsburg. The
college offers the usual science andj
literary courses found in the best col-|
leges. A preparatory department is
conducted in connection with the college,
in a building on the campus,
for young men not ready to entfer the
freshman class.
T'le college now owns nine buildings,
the centre of the group being
Holland hall, one of the most imposing
college buildings in the State. The
ca.myus> uuh uuxisibis 01 ou acres oil
an elevation on the outskirts of the
town of Newberry. Seventy-five thousand
dollars was recently added to
the endownment, making the total
productive funds about $150,000.
Plans are being laid now to erect a
Young Men's Christian association in
memory of Karl M. Counts, a senior
of last year, who died during the season.
A new gymnasium is also being
pianned, and a new athletic field
which will be one of the most complete
in the Soutlh.
Its Alumni Fund.
The alumni ot -Newberry number
over 5.000. They have always shown
a lively interest in their college. They
are organized into an alumni association
which meets annually. The association
presented the college with
a gymnasium and a professor's residence
and has given thousands o:
dollars to the supporf. of the college
for special objects and the endowment.
The alumni also maintain a scholarship
for poor, deserving students.
Friends, ex-students and graduates o:
Newberry hold a series of reunions
cnmmrir fAnr? i Ctot A o v* ^
^ouiiiin^i, lv/ui in tiiio otaic ana
one in Georgia. The best' known and
oldest of the reunions is the great Little
Mountain reunion on the first Friday
of August of each year. It is es
timated that a total of not less than
6.000 people-gather every summer at
these reunions under the "scarlet and
the gray."
The government at Xewberrv college
is less rormal than it is at most
colleges. And yet, lacking military
rigor, it is always firm and reasonable.
Students participate in disci
pline within certain limits, through a
student council elected by the student
body, toe discipline committee of the
factulty being always in close consultation.
Every month a "conference
for the common good" is held at which
students and professors assemble to
discuss in utmost freedom all affairs
touching the welfare of the college,
and many of the best achievements of

Strong in Sports.
Athletically the college has always
I stood in the first rank. In baseball i
| has won several championships in ta<
j State intercollegiate association. Ii
! 1911 it won all championships?ten
' nis, basketball and baseball. Las
winter Xewberry put out its first foot
, bail team, playing B. M. 1., Presby
terian college at Clinton (two games)
: Charleston college, Furman am
Davidson. It won all games ercep
the one with Davidson, losing by i
j score of 32 to 0. Furman was th<
| only other team that crossed New
berry's goal line. This fall Xewberr:
| will engage in gridiron contests witl
Carolina, Davidson, Wofford (at tin
State fair), the Citadel, Furman am
; pernaps uuiers. due irarrisii, a uur
|\?rsity of Georgia star will be New
i berry's physical director for the com
! ing session, and he is planning to keel
! up Newberry's splendid record. Th?
j college plays under the Southern assoi
ciation rules and no student may b(
1 a member of its varsity who is not z
; bona fide student or who is failing ir
j his studies.
.
Safe and Pleasant.
Student life at Xewberry is safe
guarded by thoughtful plans 'for theii
conduct and comfort. The Xewberrj
college club, an organization of graduates
and ex-students in the town ol

for the coming session to receive th(
young men into the homes of the
town. Perhaps there is no college
where the students and professors live
on terms oL? greater friendliness thai
; ?
I at Newberry and nowhere are the citi
: zens more genuinely interested in th<
I affairs of the institution. The students
I find it a good place to live in, anc

; safe college for anybody's boy.

"Xo doubt you m<?t our Constantin*

"He has lectured with a chassis cutout
at Roberts college."
-Mr. Osborn declared that he un- ]

made eleven visits to Constantinople
and had been there during three '
sieges. Both he aid Mrs. Osborn had

' The ex-governor's experience with
