HISTORY OF THE COLLEGE At the me ting of th General Synod of the Reformed Presby– t rian hurch in orth America, in Duanesburgh, N. Y., May 21, 1 7H, the Rev. J. F. Morton, D. D., presented a paper which inaugur– ated the mov ment in the church for a collegiate institution. Thi!:! paper was unanimously adopted, and a committee, of which Dr. .\lorton was chairman, was appointed to carry out the project. t a Inter m eting of the Synod, Rev. John Alford, D. D., of Beavel' Palls, Pa., was appointed financial agent and succeeded in raising over $10,000 in subscriptions and cash throughout the church during the following year. At the meeting of the Synod in Cincinnati, 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 edarville, Ohio. This motion was pa sed unanimously. The following committee was appointed to secure the site: Rev. J. F'. Morton, D. D., Messrs. Thomas Gibson, R. Park, Hugh McCollum, Jr., and H. H. McMillan. On January 20, 1887, the committee be ·an11:! 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 his 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 of the Reformed Presbyterian congregation of Cincinnati for 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, D. 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 the 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. James F. Morton, 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. On September 19, 1894, the College was opened for instruction to thirty-six stu~ents in 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 fron~ which graduated a number of illustrious men. These quarter~ provrng too hampered for the work, the new building was erected and e~tere_d t~e follo_wing year. The cornerstone of this building ~as laid with impressive services on June 25, 1895, and the dedica– t10n took place during the meeting of Synod in 1896. Nearly three hundred young men and women have graduated trom ~he College and are successfully following honorable callings m var10us parts <?f the world. Cedarville College has a wide and favorable reputation for thorough work. It has been honored by PAGE SIX

HISTORY 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 $152,690.~9. 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 endowments to,taling $228,088.77. At the present time a campaign is on to raise $200,000 for new buildings and additional endowment funds. At the present date, October 1, 1924, the sum of $136,000 has been raised towards thi s goal in cash and pledges, leaving a balance of $64,000 yet to be raised. The outlook for the future of the College is bright. We appeal to alumni and friends to join with us in making the 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.

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 edarville 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 1·egion 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.

Standing in the center of the beautiful 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 the College the church building, formerly the property of the Reformed Presbyterian con– g·r gation (General Synod). This building given by the donor as a m morial to his parents, the late Rev. John Alford, D. D., and Mrs. Mary B. Alford, has be n named the "Alford Memol'ial Gym– nasium." It is s venty feet long and fifty feet wide , provided with dressing rooms and shower huths, and furnishes an xc llent plac fc,r a g-ymnusium. PAG SEVE

Here are located the football gridiron, base ball diamond and tennis courts. The basket ball court is in Alford Gymnasium.

ENDOWMENT The total amount of the endowment of the College on October 1, 1924, was $152,690.29.

SOCIAL AND RELIGIOUS LIFE LECTURES AND CONCERTS The Cedarville Lyceum A!Ssociation each year presents a lecture and concert course which is open to students fo,r 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 and normal depal'tments, unless excused for physical disa– bility, labo·r necessary for self-support or voluntary participation in athletic contests. Athletic exercises are under the direct control of an Athletic Council composed of the President of the College, Ath– letic Director, two Trustees of the College, two Alumni, o•ne member of the Senior class and one member of the Junior class. Direct superision of athletics is vested in an Executive committee composed o.f the Athletic Director. the College Treasurer , another member of the faculty and the student managers of athletic teams, acting in season. 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 amoun t of twenty-five dollars are given to the winners in an oratorical contest. These prizes were esta blished by the late Rev. John Alford, D.
