DEDICATION

We, the students of Augusta College, dedicate our 1961 WHITE COLUMNS to
Mr, Charles Guy Cordle. Mr. Cordle, please accept this dedication as a symbol of
our lasting appreciation. Your inspired teaching and many other services to us
and our school have made you not only a part of Augusta College, but of Augusta
College's history as well.

AUGUSTA COLLEGE

The history of Augusta College is like that of any school established over a
period of years in so far as facts and dates are concerned; but there the similarity
ends. Our history is unique in that it represents people their interests, efforts,
and results. This fact was first demonstrated in 1910. Realizing the values in further
instruction for residents of this area, the Richmond County Board of Education add-
ed one year of college curriculum to the four-year high school, the Academy of
Richmond County. This addition was just the starting point for people who under-
stood the meaning and application of progress. Fifteen years later another year
of college work was added and in 1925 the Junior College of Augusta was of-
ficially founded. Classes began in the school session of 1926-27 and were held
in the new Academy building. The new Junior College was given accreditation
which it has maintained to the present. The people of Augusta were constantly
seeking the betterment of their Junior College. When in 1955 the historical Augus-
ta Arsenal closed; the Bodrd of Education applied for a property deed, in two
years' time receiving 4,463 acres of land and thirty-four buildings. Also in 1957
the Board sought entrance for the Junior College of Augusta into the University
System of Georgia. This meant the school would become a state-supported in-
stitution presided over by the Board of Regents. With the approval of its entrance
in 1958 the name of the school was formally changed to Augusta College. Augusta
College acquired more property in 1959 and added extension work of the Augusta
Center of the University of Georgia to its curriculum. Renovation of the newly-
accquired property for a completely new campus began in the spring of 1960. Up-
on its completion in the fall of that year classes officially opened in Augusta Col-
lege's new home. People have made our school; and it is to these people from
draftsman to dean, from painter to president that we owe our gratitude for a school
in which we are able to take pride.

UNDER THE BLOSSOM

Sallie Palmer, an art student, recaptures the
beauties of Spring on canvas.

AUGUSTA COLLEGE CAMPUS, always
beautiful, is at its best in the Spring. The
lovely colors of wisteria, azaleas, mingle
with the dogwood trees, the grey Spanish
moss and verdant green of the lawns.

THAT HANGS ON THE BOUGH"

Where sentinels once guarded
Thy armaments of yore,

Now aged oaks sublimely
Bespeak a lofty lore.

All Hail, Augusta College!

Our voices now we raise
To give thee, Alma Mater,

Our fervent love and praise.

REBUILDING

Whilst Nature was making the
campus beautiful, Man also was
preparing to add to the architec-
tural beauty of the College.

Spring and Summer 1960 saw
many alterations to the buildings.
Here are some of them being
made.

Pictures on later pages,
taken from approximately
the same vantage point, will
show how the College
looked at the beginning of
the Fall Quarter.

THE COLLEGE CHOIR

This year the college has a very fine choir. They have taken part in numerous
programs at the college as well as in the city of Augusta. Everywhere the choir
has been well received and many compliments have been handed to them. The
week before Christmas they entertained the rest of the students in the Student
Centre by singing a program of carols.

The Carol Service. The College choir and their conductor, Dr. Preston Rockholt.

CHRISTMAS

Christmas festivities took many different forms. Students attended many parties and dances, these ranged

1861 - 1961

One hundred years ago on January 24th, 1861, the Federal Arsenal (our present
campus) was surrendered to the "Independent Republic of Georgia." The troops
were the "Augusta Volunteers"; and the State Flag was a white field with a lone
red star. The surrender was accomplished without bloodshed at 3:00 p.m. on
that day. On January 24th, 1961, Augusta College commemorated this event
with a flag-raising ceremony the new (50 star) United States Flag and the
Georgia Flag. Preceding the raising of the flags. Dr. Robins read an account of
the surrender from Mrs. Florence Fleming Corley's book, "Confederate City-
Augusta, Georgia." (Mr. Cordle of Augusta College's faculty aided Mrs. Corley
in research on the book.) A salute was fired from the campus Civil War Cannon;
and the flags went up as the ARC Band played "Dixie." The Centennial Observ-
ance marked the first occasion in Augusta College's history on which the state
and national flags have flown together; and the first occasion in one hundred
years on which the Georgia Flag has flown over our campus.
