THE UNIVERSITY
HISTORY AND OBJECTIVES
UNIVERSITY OF THE SOUTH is a Christian institution,
THEwith a clearly discerned philosophy of Christian education,
owned by twenty-one dioceses of the Protestant Episcopal
Church. It has no religious restrictions but presumes the disposition
of all members of its community to live within the spirit of its con-
trolling concepts. Young men of all denominations are enrolled in the
student body.
The idea of The University of the South was born in a mani-
festo signed and published by nine Southern bishops attending the
General Convention of the Episcopal Church In Philadelphia in 1856.
The leader in the movement was Bishop Leonldas Polk of Louisiana.
This declaration was an invitation and an appeal to the Church in the
South to take steps to found an Institution of higher learning because,
in the thought of the bishops' letter, "the establishing of a Christian
University by our Church is a compelling necessity, for intelligence
and moral sentiment are the support of government."
In response to the call of the Philadelphia message, the bishops and
the duly elected clergy and laymen of their several dioceses assembled
on Lookout Mountain In Tennessee on July 4, 1857, the date of the
founding of The University of the South as recorded in its his-
tory. This assembly, which was actually a meeting of Trustees, deter-
mined by formal resolution to establish a University. The Trustees
launched plans for the great undertaking, appointed committees to
carry on the preliminary work, and adjourned to gather again in the
fall.
According to agreement, the Trustees met in Montgomery, Alabama,
on November 25, 1857. Here they named the institution which they
