SHERMAN FINE ARTS COLLEGE CENTER The cultural center of the Tennessee Wesleyan College campus is the Sherman Fine Arts College Center, memorializing Mrs. Laura T. Sherman. Facilities for the Department of Music and the TWC Choir are located in the East wing of the building, while the center is occupied by the large dining hall, a private dining hall for faculty and guests, and a student lounge. The West wing houses a soda shop, book store, post office, a day students ' lounge, student publica- tion offices, the chaplain ' s office, and a small prayer chapel. The center was a gift to the College from the Holston Conference Expansion Crusade, interested friends and foundations, and Mr. Tom Sherman, an Athens businessman who is an honorary member of the TWC Board of Trus- tees. Gathered before the dining hall entrance are (left to right) Paul Reeverts, Relus Fleming, Doug Smith, Lee Quillian, Allen Dennis, Judy Johnson, and Michael Gross.

OLD COLLEGE Yesterday and Tomorrow meet, Past and Fu- ture are blended in the building which sym- bolizes the continuity of tradition at Tennessee Wesleyan College. Begun by the Independent Order of Odd Fellows, McMinn Lodge No. 54, the institution was started with the name of Athens Female College in 1854. By the invitation of its trustees in 1857, the Methodist Episcopal Church, South, responded by providing addition- al financial support. After the sum of $2,000 was raised, Old College Building was completed at a cost of about $5,500. Two more acres of land were obtained, and Methodist sponsorship of the College was begun. During the War Between the States, Old Col- lege was used as a hospital for wounded troops. But despite the interruptions of the Civil War, the College had become a coeducational institu- tion in a decade with 52 men and 34 women stu- dents. Others were enrolled in the Preparatory Department. Mellowed with time, Old College is main- tained in faultless condition, and continues to serve the classroom needs of Tennessee Wesleyan College. Its beautifully-spacious porch is a fami- liar meeting place for students chatting about their day ' s activities. 11
