CEDARVILLE COLLEGE. GENERAL INFORMATION. HISTORY. The Cedarville College was chartered with full power by the State of Ohio in J anuary, 1887. On Wednesday, September 19, 18g4, the College opened for instruction in the mansion formerly owned by Rev. Hugh McMillan, D.D., where over a third of a century ago he conducted an academy, from which were graduated many noted per– sonages. The accommodations not being sufficient for the needs of the growing institution, in the second year the present building was erected and opened on the site pur– chased several years before. Both the building and the campus are the gifts of generous friends. Though young, the College has already exerted a lasting and wide-felt influence. Its students and graduates take high rank in seminaries, universities, and other advanced schools of train– ing. Many of them are worthily filling positions of power and influence in America and foreign lands. The College includes: the Collegiate, the Engineering, the Preparatory, the l\lfusical, the Oratorical. and the Teachers' Departments.
