Although nearly approaching its cen- ‘-nniai anniversary, the South Carolrna v’ollege shows none of the decrepitude >f old age, but rather increasing signs of vigorous life. A new departure of reat importance to the College and to the State has just been inaugurated. For some years the College has had a lepartment of pedagogy, fbr the train- iig of teachers; but last winter, for the first time, the Legislature created a number of endowed normal seholar- 4ilps, one for each county. It is the intention of the Trustees and Faculty to set these scholarships upon a high plane, and to seek thereby to qualify uperior young men for positions of leadership and influence in our public -vhools. However largely women may >e employed as teachers, the work of superintendence, direction and control must continue te be most largely in the hands of the men; and it is to supply these teachers of leadership and in fluence, in the community as well as in the schools, that the College will chiefly nm, through these scholarships.
