Collection Description
Administrative History
Emory College was chartered in 1836 to the Georgia Conference of the Methodist Episcopal Church. The College was an extension of the Georgia Conference Manual Labor School, founded in 1834. To fund the College, the founders sold plots of land in Oxford, Ga.; sought subscriptions and endowments; and sold perpetual scholarships. The College struggled financially in its early years but was bolstered by significant donations by individual benefactors including George Seney, W. P. Pattillo, and Asa Griggs Candler.
Scope and Content Note
The collection is chiefly ledgers, cashbooks, receipts, files, and other records from the Office of the Treasurer documenting the financial transaction of Emory College, including disbursements made for faculty and administrator salaries, building projects and maintenance, and income from student tuition, rental properties, investments, and individual subscriptions. There are also a few records of other College officials, including Warren A. Candler, and accounts related to other institutions, including the Education Loan Association and the Technological School which was later incorporated as the Department of Technology.
