the draper cameraThe first camera in America and the first fast-action camera in the world was developed by John W. Draper

(Professor of Chemistry, 1836-1839) while at Hampden-Sydney. Created from in-depth scientific and cooperative research and a cigar box, the camera is on display in the front gallery of the Museum. By using the camera and a departmental telescope, Draper probably took the first astronomical photographs ever made. After leaving

Hampden-Sydney College to become a professor at New York University Medical College, Draper was able to take the world’s first true portrait of a living person, in the fall of 1839.

the sword of latanéAlso on display are the officer’s sword and scabbard belonging to Captain William Latané, Class of 1853 (in Hampden-Sydney’s Medical Department). His death in the Civil War Battle of Old Church inspired

a poem by John R. Thompson and monumental artwork by William Dickenson Washington; engravings of Washington’s iconic painting became popular throughout the South.

This circa-1850 view shows the Union Seminary building (now Venable Hall, before which the graduation ceremony takes place) and two professors’ houses. The sketch from which this lithograph was made was perhaps done from

memory (not unusual in those days), since it is correct in large details but inaccurate in small ones.

New College was the result of the crusading fund-raising efforts of President Jonathan Cushing; it is now named in his honor. Begun in 1822 and completed in 1833, it replaced the 18th-century buildings and set a new north-south orienta-tion for the campus. This woodcut, the earliest known image of Hampden-Sydney College, appears in Henry Howe’s

“Historical Collections of Virginia” (1845); the drawing probably dates to his visit in 1843.

ACADEMIC REGALIA

The pageantry and dress of the academic procession have been inherited from the medieval universities of the 11th and 12th centuries. Academic life as we know it today began in the Middle Ages, first in the Church, then in the guilds. In the teaching guild the master of arts was the teacher and the bachelor was the apprentice of the master; their dress was the outward sign of privilege and responsibility. Principal features of academic dress are the gown, the cap, and the hood. Since the 15th century, both Cambridge and Oxford have made academic dress a matter of university control, even to its minor details, and have repeatedly published revised regula-tions. American universities agreed on a definite system in 1895. In 1932 the American Council on Education presented a revised code which, for the most part, governs the style of academic dress today. The Gown: The flowing gown comes from the 12th century. While it originally may have been worn as a protection against the cold of unheated buildings, today it has become symbolic of the democracy of scholarship, for it covers any dress of rank or social standing. It is black for all degrees, with pointed

sleeves for the bachelor’s degree, long closed sleeves with a slit at the arm or wrist for the master’s degree, and full bell double sleeves for the doctor’s degree. Bachelor’s and master’s degree gowns have no trim-ming. For the doctor’s degree, the gown is faced down the front with velvet and has three bars of velvet across the sleeves in the color distinctive of the faculty or discipline to which the degree pertains. The Cap: Under Roman law a freed slave won the privilege of wearing a cap. The academic cap is a sign of freedom of scholarship and the responsibil-ity and dignity with which scholarship endows the wearer. Old poetry records the cap of scholarship as square to symbolize a book. The color of the tassel sometimes denotes the discipline of the degree. The Doctoral Hood: The doctoral hood is trimmed with one or more chevrons of a second color on the ground of a primary color. The color facing the hood denotes the discipline represented by the degree; the color of the lining designates the univer-sity or college from which the degree was granted.

A BRIEF HISTORY OF HAMPDEN-SYDNEY COLLEGE

Hampden-Sydney College’s heritage is deeply rooted in the history of both Colonial America and the Presby-terian Church. The founders of the College chose the name Hampden-Sydney to symbolize their devotion to the principles of representative government and full civil and religious freedom which John Hampden (1594-1643) and Algernon Sydney (1622-1683) had outspo-kenly supported, and for which they had given their lives, in England’s two great constitutional crises of the seventeenth century. They were widely invoked as hero-martyrs by American colonial patriots, and their names were immediately associated with the cause of independence championed by James Madison, Patrick Henry, and other less well-known, but equally vigorous, patriots among the College’s early Trustees. Indeed, the original stu-dents eagerly committed themselves to the revolutionary effort, orga-nized a militia company, drilled regularly, and went off to the defense of Williamsburg and of Peters-burg, in 1777 and 1778 respectively. Their uniform of hunting shirts—dyed purple with the juices of pokeberries—and grey trousers prefigured the College’s traditional colors, garnet and grey. First proposed in 1771, the College was formally organized in February 1775, when the Presbytery of Hanover, meeting in Nathaniel Venable’s Slate Hill plan-tation (about two miles south of the present campus), accepted a gift of one hundred acres for the College, elected Trustees, and named as Rector (later President) the Rev. Mr. Samuel Stanhope Smith, valedictorian of the Princeton class of 1769, who had been actively pro-moting the idea of establishing a college in the heavily Scotch-Irish area of south-central Virginia since he began his ministry there in 1772. Within only ten months, Smith, intending to model the new college after his own alma mater, secured an adequate subscription of funds and an enrollment of 110 students. Students and faculty began gathering in the fall of 1775; the first classes were held on November 10. The College completed its first full year in 1776 and has never suspended operations. In 1783, Hampden-Sydney’s viability, severely tested by the Revolutionary War, was ensured by the grant of a charter from the General Assembly of Virginia. Union Theological Seminary of Virginia (1822) was founded

at Hampden-Sydney and occupied the south end of the present campus for some seventy-five years before relo-cating to Richmond. The Medical College of Virginia was established (1837) at Richmond as the medical department of Hampden-Sydney. The College matured physically and academically through the first half of the nineteenth century, enjoying the services of some remarkably gifted leaders. Jonathan P. Cushing, a Dartmouth man and the first layman to be president, oversaw the abandonment of the College’s original buildings in favor of the handsome Federal architecture which still distinguishes the campus. The world-renowned chemist, Dr. John W. Draper, built the first camera in America and used it to take the world’s first astronomical photographs while he was a professor at Hampden-Sydney from 1836 to 1839; he later took

the first photograph of a living person. During the Civil War the students

organized a company, with President J. M. P. Atkinson as captain. Officially named the “Hampden-Sydney Boys,” they saw action only in the battle of Rich Mountain (June 10-11, 1861);

captured as a body, they were paroled by General McClellan on the condition that they lay down their arms and return to their

studies. After the Seminary moved to Rich-

mond in 1898, a most generous alumnus, Major R. M. Venable, bought its buildings and gave them to the College.

Throughout the twentieth century, handsome and practical buildings (among them, most recently, as a result of a successful campaign that raised over $100 mil-lion, a new 83,000-square-foot library, a new stadium, and an expanded athletic center) have been added to the campus, while Hampden-Sydney’s academic, social, and cultural programs have been continually enriched and expanded, strengthening the coherent tradition of liberal arts education which remains the hallmark of the College. Its success in forging good men and leaders is widely recognized. Hampden-Sydney looks into its third century with a wholesome optimism, bred of a sober integrity of mis-sion coupled with a history of sound development, and made possible by an extraordinary succession of leaders and benefactors of rare ability, commitment, and vision.

Inside back cover

the colleGe sealThe Hampden-Sydney College seal symbolically combines liberty, religion, and academics—all essential elements in the formula for a successful college career. In 1783, the Trustees ordered a corporate seal for Hampden-Sydney, “to be engraved with proper devices,” for use on its diplomas; the die for the seal was first engraved in 1784. The seal is a circle divided into three sections: an upper half and two lower quadrants. Although the figures within the seal have been changed somewhat since the original, the sym-bolism still exists. In the lower right-hand quadrant, an orator preaches; in the lower left-hand quadrant, a man kneels on a rock in front of an open book (originally the word “Liberty” appeared below the book, but has since been deleted). In the top half of the seal, on the right, there is a table with books and, on the left, a rolled diploma and pendant seal.

Samuel Stanhope Smith, the founding presi-dent of the College, explicitly claimed that he was basing its course of education on that of the College of New Jersey (now Princeton University), the alma mater of the first two presidents, the first faculty members, and some early Trustees. There is considerable evidence that he also modeled the Hampden-Sydney seal after the College of New Jersey seal, with significant additions like the word “Liberty”—a gesture consistent with Smith’s choice of revolutionary eponyms for the institution.

the coat of armsThrough the generosity of the F. M. Kirby Founda-tion, Inc., the College was granted an authentic coat of arms and other armorial bearings from the College of Arms, an office of the Royal Household, as part of the College’s bicentennial celebration in 1972-1976. The Kirby Foundation has designated the Achievement of Arms a gift in honor of Profes-sor John L. Brinkley ’59, who was the liaison with Mr. John Brooke-Little, the Richmond Herald, in designing the arms. On either side of the shield are two blue pheons (spearheads) against a gold background; this feature is from the Sydney arms. At top and bottom are blue eagles against a silver background; this feature is from the Hampden arms. The Hampden and Sydney quarters are separated by a red saltire—a St. Andrew’s cross—representing the Church of Scotland, the spiritual parent of Presbyterianism. In the middle is an open Bible with the Greek words of John 8:32: “Ye shall know the truth.” With understated irony, the Latin text of the Letters Patent conferring the arms is dated July 4, 1976, and Mr. Brooke-Little, who with the Queen’s special permission appeared in full herald’s uniform, made the presentation on Yorktown Day, October 19, 1976. (The Letters Patent are on display in the Atkinson Museum of Hampden-Sydney.) The Presidential Medallion, worn around the neck as a symbol of office, is a reproduction in bronze of the coat of arms, surrounded by a banner with the words “Hampden-Sydney College” and the date “1776.”
