THE GREAT AWAKENING 1 776-1 845 The time . . .July 4, 1776. The place . . . Philadelphia The Declaration of Inde- pendence has just been signed and a new nation is bom . Two hundred years and several hundred miles away is the Medical College of Virginia and 1976 . As we look to 1776 to see a new nation come into being , a new college that proves to be the parent institution of MCV is founded in a small rural Southside Virginia village, Hampden-Sydney. Many of the founding fathers of our United States were also founding fathers of Hampden Sydney . This small Presbyterian school grew until 1837 when the trustees voted to create a medical department to be located in Richmond , the capital of Virginia and a growing industrial center of the South . So in November 1838 , the Medical Department of Hampden-Sydney College opened its doors in the Union Hotel on the corner of 19th and Main Streets in Richmond . In the following years , the institution grew , and by 1845 a permanent home , the Egyptian Building, was completed . The college was a reality , but its most troubled years lay ahead .
