SHEPHERD COLLEGE. CONTENTS INTRODUCTION - ACTIVITIES ORGANIZATIONS ATHLETICS FACULTY CLASSES SOCIAL ORGANIZATIONS Historic Shepherd College is located in Shepherdstown, West Virginia, on the banks of the peaceful Cohongoroota, as the Indians called the Potomac to the junction at Harpers Ferry. The name means River of the Wild Geese Flying and denotes calmness and serenity. This was the picture ot Shepherds- town when in l87l Shepherd College opened its doors to students, and the town was filled with the hustle and bustle of learning. From this minute beginning Shepherd has grown to a fully accredited tour-year college, with an enrollment of nine hundred students. The college is accredited by the North Cen- tral Association, the Association of Colleges for Teacher Education, and is a member ot the Association of American Colleges. lt is approved by the American Association of University Women. The campus now covers thirty-three acres and present plans indicate that the spirit ot accomplishment evident in the last decade will continue through the '6O's. Under con- struction for occupancy in September of l96l are the new women's dormitory and dining hall. Ground breaking ceremonies for the student activities building were held this Spring.
