.VIRGINIA UNION UNIVERSITY
r \ irpinia l'TTkm UniX,rs1tv Is a IfrbtU school!
Situated its it is, ifl Richmond one of the South's
chief. culture cities; and 'provided as it is, with
!i i ?t-:it grey granite buildings of magnificent'design,
and [ ossessing as it does, scholastic traditions which
?re n li ln. K- through the years,, tiie school is easily
one. of. the best providing for adueation among Negroes.
"By their fruits shall yn__kno\v them" is as
true of educational institutions as of men; and it
is by this standard that we adjudge Virginia Union
i" Ik- a great school. Her students anil graduates
have gone into all parts "of the natibn and wheree\er
they are found they are achieving and pursu.
iug after it manner which shows that their training
has been the best. For a long time Virginia Union
was.chiefly known for the fine calibre of theelogi-cnl
training offered and it has come about that the
foi einost pubpks of the Negro Baptists churches of
t the country are supplied by men who have been
trained at Union. A list of these great preachers
w. uld be long. -Within recent years however the
( energies of the school have been turned also to
.'science and arts and education and in these fields
j Unions sons and. daughters are making for tliem?selves
and their n+rrnr mater a name!
it is <loul>U'ul if*4.here is jx school for- Negroes,

which- this -school, is most noted. Students and
teachers van get together at Union. bec ause there |
: is no suppression nor repression of students of libiial
tin.light. It is this freedom of expression that J
marks nf 111:1 ntiiw.<1 no?Union's si lldents that j
