Tennessee Wesleyan College In Its World Context Old College represents beginnings. It is the proper place to begin a review of Tennessee Wesleyan College ' s world outlook, for through its doors have hurried thousands of students since 1857. They have gone their vastly separate ways, carrying with them the ideals and traditions of Wesleyan. They have gone into the world equipped to meet its demands. Old College was their beginning as it is ours.

The bell which hangs in the cupola on the roof of the Merner-Pfeiffer Library is a monument to the gen- erations of Wesleyan students whose lives it regulated. Originally attached to the porch roof of Old College, it was used to call students to and from their classes. Many Wesleyan alumni remember the Halloween of 1931 when the clapper of the bell disappeared, bringing quiet chaos to the orderly schedule of daily classes. Eventually the clapper was found — in the top of a tree near Bennett Hall, which was located on the site of the present Lawrence Hall. Mr. Neal Ensminger, a local alumnus, suggested plac- ing the bell in its present location when the Merner- Pfeiffer Library was built in 1941. He and other alumni who backed his idea felt that there was a great deal of sentiment and tradition attached to the old bell. After years of service, it had earned its present commanding position.
