The gay nineties found education at the University far from gay. In 1895 there were only 16 members on the University faculty, headed by Chancellor William E. Boggs. Today ' s forty year pro- fessors — Snelling, Bocock, Hooper, McPherson, Morris, Park and Strahan — were just coming in. The physical equipment of the Uni- versity consisted of only eight buildings; the library was on the second floor of the present administration building, which had not yet been joined to the Ivy Building to form the Academic Build- ing. Moore College had been a gift of the city of Athens; the two literary societies had their halls; Old and New Colleges com- pleted the campus of 1895, except for the faculty homes. There were yearly PANDORA campaigns, advocating an enlargement of facilities.
