An Historical Sketch of AMorris t°Hege Morris College was founded in 1908 by the Baptist Educational and Missionary Convention of South Carolina for the purpose of giving youth a Christian Education. Morris College has grown from two frame buildings, one known as Phyllis Wheatley and the other as Brockenton—one painted white, the other unpainted—to six brick structures, a cottage for the President and one for the Dean of the College, a total of eight buildings located on forty acres, owned and controlled by the Negro Baptist of the State of South Carolina. Under the first President of Morris College, the late Dr. E. M. Brawley, now deceased, the foundation and ideals of a greater Morris College were laid. We bow our heads in submission to his ashes and with grateful hearts we work on »n tiic e ho of his sacrificial efforts. From Nineteen Hundred Twelve to Nineteen Hundred Thirty, the unselfish, consistent service of Dr. J. J. Starks as President, gave to Morris College seven creditable buildings. Dr. and Mrs. J. J. Starks' untiring efforts entitle them to the respect of all mankind. From Nineteen Hundred Thirty to Nineteen Hundred Thirty Seven. Morris College, under the guidance of President Ira David Pinson, has made continuous progress. In the spring of Nineteen Hundred Thirty Three. McGowan Hall burned and was rebuilt into with a commendable thirty-two room dormitory now known as The Brawle.v-Starks Hall. There was also erected a seven room cottage now occupied by the Dean of the College. Morris College has become one of the most attractive locations in the State of South Carolina. While Morris College is owned and controlled by the Baptist Educational and Missionary Convention of South Carolina the school is open to students of all faiths, with the aim to teach the truth of vital Christianity, to better prepare young women for lives of usefulness and make them followers of Christ.
