HISTORY OF THE COLLEGE At the meeting of the General ynod of the Reformed Presby– t rian hurch in orth Am rica, in Duanesburgh, . Y., May 24, 1 79 the Rev. J. F. Morton, . D., presented a paper which inaugur– ated' the movement in the church for a collegiate institution. This paper was unanimously adopte~, and a committee, of w.hich Dr. Morton was chairman, was appointed to carry out the proJect. At a lat r meeting of the ynod, Rev. John Alford, D. D., of Beaver Falls Pa., was appointed financial agent and succeeded in raising over '$10,000 in subscriptions an? cash throughou~ the. c~urch. duri~g the following year. At the meeting of the Synod m Cmcmnati, Ohio, the Rev. David Steele, D. D., on May 26, 1885, offered a resolution that the college be started as soon as possible and located in or near Cedarville Ohio. This motion was passed unanimously. The following 'committee was appointed to secure the site: Rev. J. F. Morton, D. D., Messrs, Thomas Gibson, R. Park, Hugh McColl um, Jr.; and H. H. McMillan. On January 20, 1887, the committee became incorporated under the laws of Ohio and on the 26th day of January, 1887 they obtained a charter for "The Cedarville College." On March 11, 1887, the incorporators met in Cedarville and elected themselves the first Board of Trustees of Cedarville College, with Mr. Thomas Gibs.on, president, who served in that capacity until bis death. At the meeting of Synod in May, 1887, the following persons were added to this first Board of Trustees: Robert Abbott, James Patterson, Alexander Kerr, and Ephraim Young. The enterprise then slumbered until the meeting of Synod in Cedarville in 1892, when the Ohio Presbytery reported that William Gibson, Esq., of Cincinnati, an elder in the Presbyterian Church of the city, had left $25,000 for the college in memory of his father, Peter Gibson, an elder o.f the Reformed Presbyterian congregation of Cincinnati Ior a long period of years. Again the Board of Trustees took up the work and at the meeting of Synod in Coulterville, Ill., on May 18, 1894, the college was launched with Rev. David McKinney, Dr D., as president, who served in that capacity for twenty-one years. Rev. J. F. Morton, D. D., was chosen vice-president. Rev W. R. McChesney, D. D., was chosen the first professor, beginning his work for t he college, July 10, 1894. Upon the resignation of Dr. McKinney in 1915, Dr. McChesney was elected president. The first faculty consisted of Rev. David McKinney, D. D., president; Rev. J1i;mes F. Mort~n, D. D., vice-president and professor English Bible; W. Renwick McChesney, A. M., secretary and professor of Ancient Languages; Carrie Blair, professor of Mathematics; Frank H. Dean, A. B., professor of English and Science; and Belle Beazell, professor of Music. <;)n September 19, .1894, the College was opened for instruction to th1rty-six stu~ents m the fine old mansion formerly owned by Rev. Hugh McMillan, D. D., the first pastor of the Main Street Reformed Presbyterian congregation of Cedarville. In this place three-qu~rters of a century ago, Dr. McMillan taught an academy from. which graduated a number of illustrious men. These quarter~ proving too hampered for the work, the new building was erected and ei:ter e.d t~e follo.wing year. The cornerstone of this building ~as laid with impressive services on June 25, 1895, and the dedica– tion took place during the meeting of Synod in 1896. Nearly three hundred young men and women have graduated ~rom ~he College and are successfully following honorable callings in var10us parts <?f the world. Cedarville College has a wide and favorable reputation for thorough work. It has been honored by PAGE SIX
H STORY OF THE COLLEGE such distinguished men as W. J . Alford , Esq., Andrew Carnegie and Ambassador Whitelaw Reid among its benefactors. Cedarville College has a productive endowment of $149,660.07 In 1913 the Reformed Presbyterian Theological Seminary of Phila– delphia was removed to Cedarville and affiliated with the college. This institution has an endowment fund of $36,445 and a students' aid fund of $38 .953.48. The College and Seminary combined have ndowment totaling $22 5,058.55. At the present time a campaign is on to raise $200, 000 for n ew buildings and additional endowment funds. At the present date, May 1, 1924, the sum of $136,000 has been raised towards this goal in cash and pledges, leaving a balan ce of $64,000 yet to be raised. The outlook fo r the future of the College is bright. We appeal to alumni and friends to join wit h u s in making t he coming years, by our contributions , prayers and efforts, the best yet. PURPOSE OF THE COLLEGE The purpose of Cedarville College is to secure a high modern form of literary and scientific education under careful supervision and Christian influences, without restriction of personal opinion, and with open door and equal privileges to both sexes and to all classes and conditions of men. LOCATION Cedarville College is situated :in Cedarville, Greene County, Ohio, which is located on the Little Miami Division of the Pittsburgh, Cincinnati, Chicago & St. Louis Railway, forty-seven miles southwest of Columbus; seventy-three miles northeast of Cincinnati; twelve miles south of Springfield; and eight miles northeast of Xenia. It is in the northern part of the Miami Valley, and has one of the most beautiful and healthful locations in Ohio . The country lying about Cedarville is level, fertile, improved, and in every way suited for a pleasant residence. . Any who have children to educate, and wish to be with them during their college course, can find no finer region and no better society than in this community. BUILDINGS AND EQUIPMENT COLLEGE HALL College Hall is the main building of the institution. It is a handsome edifice of pressed brick and cut stone. On the first floor are the chapel , class rooms and waiting rooms. On the second floor are recitation rooms. A large literary society hall and the college office occupy the entire third floor. Standing in the center of the b autiful campus, on the highest site in Cedarville, the building pr sents an attractive and imposing appearance. THE ALFORD MEMORIAL GYMNASIUM In 1902, Mr. W. J. Alford presented to t he College the church building, form rly the property of the Reformed Presbyterian con– gregation (General Synod ). This building given by the donor as a memorial to his parents, the late Rev. John Alford, D. D., and Mrs. Mary B. Alford, has been named the "Alford Memorial Gym– nasium." It is s v nty feet long and fifty feet wide, provided with ressing roon~s and shower baths, and furnishes an excellent place for a gymnasium. PAGE SEVEN
BUILDINGS ND EQUIPMENT THE CARNEGIE LBRARY In December 1905, Mr. Andrew Carnegie donated $11,695 to erect a library b~ilding for Cedarville College on condition that a like amount be added to the College endowment fund. This con– dition was fully met, and the building of brick and cut stone was completed and entered during the summer of 1908. The building is seventy-two feet in length and forty-five feet in width, and con– tains all the modern library equipment with a capacity for 17,000 volumes. The village and College libraries have been combined, and new volumes are being added as needed. The leading periodicals are kept on the reading tables. NEW SCIENCE HALL Cedarville's New Science Building is completed and has been in use since September, 1923. It is a fine and imposing structure, forty-five by sixty-five feet, located on the main campus just north of the Administration Building. It has a basement and two stories, heated by vapor, and is absolutely fire-proof. In the basement are, a room and laboratory for Acadetnic Physics, cloak rooms and toilets. The first and second floors provide space for Freshman and advanced Chemistry, College Physics and Biology. These rooms are furnished with the latest equipment for the study of the sciences. Electricity, Natural Gas and running water are available in all departments. INCOME AND ENDOWMENT INCOME The income of Cedarville College consists oi the interest from its endowment, voluntary subscriptions and offerings from friends, contributions from the different congregations under the care of the General Synod of the Reformed Presbyterian Church, and the tuition fees of the students. ENDOWMENT The total amount of. the endowment of the College on February 23, 1924, was $149,660.07.

SOCIAL AND RELIGIOUS LIFE LECTURES AND CONCERTS The Cedarville Lyceum A-sociation each year presents a lecture and concert course which is open to students for a nominal fee, Chapel lectures are also given from time to time by members of the faculty and others. ATHLETICS AND GYMNASTICS Gymnastic exercises are required of all students in the col– legiate, normal and preparatory departments, unless excused by the faculty for physical disability, labor necessary for self-support or voluntary participation in athletic contests. Athletic exercises are encouraged by t he faculty and the Board of Trustees. They are under the direct control of the athletics com– mittee of the faculty and of the director of Physical Education. The athletic sports chiefly in vogue at Cedarville are foot ball, basket ball, base ball, track and tennis. LITERARY SOCIETIES The Philadelphian Society, organized in 1894, and the Philo– sophic in 1895, were both displaced by the Orange and Blue Club. organized in 1917. In the autumn of 1923, the former plan of two societies gained in favor and the Philadelphian and Philosophic Societies were revived. Fortnightly meetings, which are well sup– ported, afford many opportunities for the development of literary, musical and oratorical talent. JOHN ALFORD PRIZES Annual prizes to the amount of twenty-five dollars are given to the winners in an oratorical contest. These prizes were established by the late Rev. John Alford, D. D., a distinguished minister of the Reformed Presbyterian Church and a trustee of Cedarville College. They are now furnished in his memory by his daughter, Miss Martha Alford. B IBLE READING CONTEST Miss Margaret Belle Rife, of the Class of 1916, annually offers prizes of seven, five and three dollars for a Bible reading contest. Any student in the College may compete for these prizes. ANNUAL COLLEGE PLAY An annual college play is given, usually in November, under the direction of the department of English. This affords a splendid op– portunity for the development of the dramatic ability of the stu– dents. THE CEDRUS An illustrated college annual, The Cedrus, published by the students, crystallizes the activities of the year into permanent liter– ary and pictorial form. THE RANGERS CLUB In February, 1922 , upon the suggestion of Dean Allen a roup of about tw nty students organized the Rangers Club. The purpose of this club is to visit High Schools and present programs for the purpose of making the college and its work known to prosp ctive college students. The club has invariably met with cordial receptions, and has proved to be one of the b st methods of publicity in use by th college. PAGE ELEVEN
SOC! L AND RELIGIOUS LIFE LE CIRCLE FRANCAIS The French Club was o'rganized in November, 1922. Students who have completed two years of French in college, or who are taking French II, may be admitted to the club. Meetings are held once each month at the homes of the various members, and the pro. grams are conducted in French. RELIGIOUS ADVANTAGES There are four churches in Cedarville: Methodist Episcopal, United Presbyterian, Reformed Presbyterian (Synod) and Reformed Presbyterian (General Synod). Every member of the Faculty and nearly every student in attendance this year is a professed Christian. All students are expected to attend the church designated by their parents, who are requested to send their written wishes as to which church their children shall attend. Students of all Christian de· nominations are welcomed. YOUNG MEN'S CHRISTIAN ASSOCIATION The Young Men's Christian Association, of Cedarville College, was organized March 12, 1907.

YOUNG WOMEN'S CHRISTIAN ASSOCIATION The Young Women's Christian Association, of Cedarville Col. lege, was organized in 1909. It maintains all of those characteristic activities which have made this organization such a power for good among the college girls of America. PAGE TWELVE
