Book Description
Excerpt from The Sapphire, 1921: Fassifern School Fassifern is a Gaelic word, meaning House among the alders. The founder of the school while a teacher in a large boarding school noticed that many very young girls were brought there who needed more individual attention than could be given them in a large school. She conceived the idea of establishing a school so limited in numbers that each girl might receive the particular teaching, care, and attention her case demanded. Lincolnton, North Carolina, was selected as a suitable and conveniently located town; and a hillside overlooking the river was the chosen site of the home school.

The Morningside, Vol. 5
Author: E. B. Mitchell
Publisher: Forgotten Books
ISBN: 9780243437856
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 38
Book Description
Excerpt from The Morningside, Vol. 5: November 1, 1900 College, and of 108 in the Schools of Applied Science alone, are not very satisfactory. The College has fallen from 429 to 401 men, and this decrease is quite sufficient ground for serious thought by the powers that be. When all is said, the College, the lineal descendant of old King's College, from which has sprung all the other many and varied departments from the School of Philosophy to the kindergarten of the Horace Mann School, is the real centre of Columbia University. This fact has been stated often and in many ways, but it does not seem to have impressed itself deeply on the minds of the authorities. Nevertheless, it is a fact, and as such should be recognized. Columbia University is not a graduate annex of Harvard or Yale or any or all of the other American colleges. It is a distinct institution with a history, traditions, and spirit of its own, which the College alone has created and which the College alone can perpetuate. For undergraduate activity, social or athletic, with all that it means and stands for, the necessity of the College is too well known to need discussion. What is needed is the fulfillment of the promise of two years ago, the building up of the College until it has regained its true position in Columbia, and the first step towards this goal is the erection of a College Hall, a fitting home for the heart of a great university. University Hall is a luxury that will doubtless be much appreciated, but College Hall is a necessity, less showy perhaps, but more solid and infinitely more important.
