Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Record of the Hampden-Sydney Alumni Association, Vol. 23: July 1949 Owing to advancing years and impaired health, he discontinued his trade years ago and contented himself with the cultivation of his garden, which was always an excellent one, and doing chores about his home. He had also been a great hunter, and with a true and steady eye his aim seldom failed, and he brought down many a bird as it winged its way. This pastime also he had given up several years ago. George Rodgers was a man of the strictest integrity, and his word was as good as his bond. He was possessed with a most pleasing personality, and had many friends who delighted in his witty sayings, which sayings they often quoted. These friends find it difficult to realize that he is gone, and sorely miss his genial presence. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

The result is that he either puts an additional burden on his parents, who may be making a great effort to give him an education, or else he leaves college in debt to his fraternity, thus impairing his sense of obligation and putting an additional charge on those who do pay their dues and contribute their part to the social demands made on the chapter. What would seem to be of greater importance to the fraternity itself is the fact that a number of boys whose breeding, ability, and promise would make them most desirable and congenial fraternity men and reflect credit on the fraternity, have to decline because they cannot afford the cost.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Record of the Hampden-Sydney Alumni Association, Vol. 9: July, 1915 In fact, the condition of the gift is that the college will make this addition to the building. The library at present contains some thirty thousand volumes and pamphlets, many of. Them being of great value, but the great need is for other books which will supply the material needed for research work. The library is used more and more each year, from the beginning of the session to the close. A visitor during library hours will be astonished to see the great number of students working there. Some are there for the purpose of looking up assignments made by the professors, others for the independent preparation of speeches or articles for the various college publications. Still others use the library more or less as a study hall. Nothing is more greatly needed than better library facilities. One of the reasons which has prevented the college from being on the accredited list of American Universities and Colleges has been due to the fact that these facilities at hampden-sydney have not met the standard required by the Association. The hours which the library will be kept open will also be increased. It is believed that with this addition to the building, and after the purchase of these volumes, made possible by the gift of from the General Education Board, this particular disability will be removed.

Download or read book The Record of the Hampden Sydney Alumni Association Vol 9 October 1934 Classic Reprint written by Hampden-Sydney College and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-01-07 with total page 20 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Record of the Hampden-Sydney Alumni Association, Vol. 9: October, 1934 The Chesters were Puritans of New England, people of strong bodies, vigorous minds and marked Spiritual gifts. The Chapters dealing with Dr. Chester's early life at Mount Holly, Arkansas, where he was born in 1851, present a vivid picture of the pioneer days in that state when there were few luxuries and life was strenuous; slavery as it existed then is shown at its best; war incidents are related, and the trials of Reconstruction days are referred to in a calm and impartial manner. College life at Washington College (lexington, Vir ginia) is portrayed' and the young student's association with General Robert E. Lee and his family is set forth in a most interesting way. Then hampden-sydney, as it was in the early seventies, receives the attention it deserves. The great worthies of the Seminary faculty are mentioned and just estimates of them are made. To the readers of the record this portion of the book will probably be most interesting. Even Walker Crawley is not forgotten, though the reference to this unique person is brief and not perhaps as laudatory as Walker would have wished it to be. It Should be stated, however, that the names of Hampden Sydney men are found all through the volume; for the contribution of the College to the work of missions has been great, and the Secretary came in contact with many of them.

Nor does he overlook the spanish-american War, though that lasted only a few months. Of course he has a good deal to say about the first World War and World War II, and the Korean conflict. Mr. Bradshaw draws an excellent picture of the social life in the county and he deals also with the political and educational. In the educational field he naturally has a great deal to say about hampden-sydney during its early days, as it pertains to the historical record of the county which he traces from its foundations, down to the present. His treatment of Longwood College is most complete and comprehensive, showing that Prince Edward did not neglect the education of its young women. He also mentions a number Of private schools which played an important part in the education of the young women of Prince Edward.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Record of the Hampden-Sydney Alumni Association, Vol. 40: Spring 1966 Where is hampden-sydney in all this? Are we moving with deliberate speed or judicious caution? To the close observer, some signs of moving with the times can be discerned. An unusually well - balanced Freshman with an A record said to the writer a few days ago: What I like about hampden-sydney is that you are encouraged to think for yourself and to contribute to classroom discussion. I also attend a voluntary seminar at the home of one of my teachers where we discuss the issues of today's world quite frankly. A w'eary Senior, checking out of the library with a double armload of economics books, had a more care-worn aspect. I've got two big term papers coming up, he sighed. No Easter vacation in Florida for me. The number of upperclassmen who can talk quite intelligently about the quantum theory, T. S. Eliot and the God is dead cult is really quite surprising.

These were the days when the radio had not been dreamed of and even the phonograph was far from perfected. A journey even from Farmville to hampden-sydney usually took from one to one and one-half hours except when the roads were especially good and the team unusual. It was not uncommon to see booths placed in the grounds near the church where food could be obtained for those who had driven in only for the day.
