Agnes Scott College Mission Statement

Agnes Scott College is a private women's liberal arts college in Decatur, Georgia. The college enrolls approximately 1,000 undergraduate and graduate students. The college is affiliated with the Presbyterian Church and is considered one of the Seven Sisters of the South. [6] It also offers co-educational graduate programs.

History

The college was founded in 1889 as Decatur Female Seminary by Presbyterian minister Frank Henry Gaines. In 1890, the name was changed to Agnes Scott Institute to honor the mother of the college's primary benefactor, Col. George Washington Scott. The name was changed again to Agnes Scott College in 1906, and remains today a women's college.

Agnes Scott is considered the first higher education institution in the state of Georgia to receive regional accreditation. [7] [8] The ninth and current president since July 2018 is Leocadia I. Zak, who previously worked as director of the U.S. Trade and Development Agency (USTDA).

On July 27, 1994, the campus was listed on the National Register of Historic Places as part of the South Candler Street-Agnes Scott College Historic District. [9] The historic district boundaries are East College Ave., South McDonough St., S. Candler St., East Hill St. and East Davis St. It includes the entire campus, as well as historic homes adjacent to the campus. The campus is also designated by the City of Decatur as a historic district. [10]

The Reverend Frank Henry Gaines served as the first President of Agnes Scott, formally known as Decatur Female Seminary School, for 27 years (1896–1923). During his 27-year presidency, he ensured stability and success for the school, including the transition to the collegiate level, accreditation by the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools, acquisition of 20 acres of land and 21 buildings and an increase in assets from $5,000 to $1.5 million.

Campus

Agnes Scott College is located within walking distance of downtown Decatur. A MARTA subway station, located in downtown Decatur, and bus stops allows students to travel to the greater Atlanta area.

Agnes Scott occupies more than 90 acres (360,000 m2) in Decatur. The college also owns the Avery Glen apartments as well as more than a dozen houses in the surrounding neighborhoods housing faculty, staff, and students. There are also six dedicated undergraduate dormitories located on campus.

American poet Robert Frost was first invited to speak at Agnes Scott in 1935, by English professor Emma May Laney, and he visited the college every winter from 1945 until his death in 1963. [11] During his visits, he would read poetry in Presser Hall. A statue of the poet sculpted by George W. Lundeen sits in the alumnae gardens. A collection of Robert Frost's poetry and letters can be viewed on the second floor of the McCain Library. [12]

Current Buildings

Agnes Scott (Main) Hall

Agnes Scott (Main) Hall, named after Agnes Irvine Scott, is located at the center of "the main loop" and is a one among many Agnes Scott buildings that was listed in the National Register of Historic Places. [13] Main was built in 1891, making it the oldest building on campus. [14] Main once housed the entire school. This is documented in the history of Agnes Scott by Dr. McNair entitled Lest We Forget published in 1983. As technology became more advanced so did Main. [15] Main Hall was the first building on campus and in the neighborhood to have electric lighting. [16] Some say that people would gather outside of Main at night just to admire the light shining within the building. [17]

Gazebo

Built in 1891, the Gazebo at Agnes Scott college has served a multitude of purposes throughout the years. It was originally located in front of Agnes Scott (Main) Hall, however in 1926 it was moved to the west end of Rebekah Scott Hall. The gazebo has been used as an office, meeting room, meditation chapel, and the Day Student Hut. [18]

Rebekah Scott Hall

Built in 1906, Rebekah Scott Hall is the second oldest building remaining at Agnes Scott College. Rebekah Scott Hall cost $70,000 to build. It is named after George Washington Scott's wife, Rebekah Butcher Scott. The first floor of Rebekah Scott Hall contains offices, the office of financial aid, and the office of admissions. The second and third floors are used as student housing. [19]

Jennie D. Inman Hall (Inman Hall)

Jennie D. Inman Hall, known commonly as Inman Hall, was built in 1911 and is the oldest building at Agnes Scott College which is used exclusively for student housing. In 1985, Inman had major renovations and the third floor was converted into study spaces for students. Jennie D. Inman Hall is 170 by 50 feet. It is made from Indiana limestone and is three stories high. The building faces west and has a large veranda which stretches along the front of the building. Jennie D, Inman Hall was gifted to Agnes Scott College by Samuel. M. Inman in memory of his wife, Jennie D. Inman. [20]

Anna Young Alumnae House

Built in 1923, the Anna Young Alumnae House is dedicated to former science professor and Agnes Scott alumnae, Anna Irwin Young. Originally the Alumnae House was a central gathering place for ASC alumnae. The house and bedrooms are now used as a campus guest house. Behind the house is the Alumnae Garden which houses a statue honoring Robert Frost. The Anna Young Alumnae House underwent renovations from 2005 until 2009, after which it was re-opened. [21]

Bradly Observatory

The Bradley Observatory at Agnes Scott houses the Beck Telescope, a 30-inch (760 mm) Cassegrain reflector, as well as a planetarium with 70-seat capacity and a radio telescope. Recently Agnes Scott College and the Georgia Tech Research Institute have collaborated on a project that added a LIDAR facility to the observatory. [22]

Bullock Science Center

The college's science building, the Bullock Science Center, contains a three-story rendering of part of the nucleotide sequence from Agnes Scott's mitochondrial DNA. The DNA came from a blood sample of an ASC alumna who is a direct descendant of the college's namesake. [23]

Sustainability

Agnes Scott has committed to becoming a carbon-neutral institute by the college's 150th anniversary in 2039 and has taken steps such as partnering with the Clean Air Campaign to reduce its impact on the local environment. [24]

As of 2015, the college has five solar arrays, four of which are part of Georgia Power's Advanced Solar Initiative. The fifth array is on the rooftop of the Bradley Observatory and is also used for student research. The renovation of Campbell Hall into a mixed use residence hall, learning center, and office space was concluded in 2014 and included installation of a hydro-geothermic HVAC system. [25]

The college hosts a Zipcar. [26]

Academics

Agnes Scott offers 34 undergraduate majors and 9 graduate and post-baccalaureate programs. [27] The undergraduate core curriculum SUMMIT focuses on leadership development, global learning, and digital literacy. [28] In 2019, Agnes Scott received the Heiskell Award for Scholars as Drivers of Innovation for its SUMMIT curriculum.

SUMMIT at Agnes Scott is split into six areas of focus: [29]

Undergraduate students are able to cross-register in other ARCHE member institutions. [30] Its most popular undergraduate majors, based on 2021 graduates, were: [31]

Library

The library at Agnes Scott College was an original Carnegie library built in 1910. The building was demolished in 1986.

A new library was authorized by the board of trustees in 1935 and opened in the fall of 1936. This new library was called the "Carnegie Library" and the original library was turned into a student center. It was renamed in 1951 for James McCain, on the occasion of his retirement as the 2nd President of the college. In 1974-1977 and again in 1999–2000, the library underwent renovations. [32]

McCain Library is a member of the Oberlin Group of Libraries, a consortium of 83 leading liberal arts colleges in the United States. The purpose of the group centers on promoting dialogue and the sharing of ideas to better inform respective library operations and services, including adaptation to evolving challenges. [33]

Student life

Diversity

The Fall of 2023 ethnicities of the undergraduate student body were: 0.1% American Indian or Alaskan Native, 6.0% Asian, 35.3% Black or African American, 34.4% White, 12.5% Hispanic/Latino, 2.4% non-resident Alien, 5.4% two or more races, and 2.3% other or unknown. 61.3% of undergraduates that year were from Georgia. [34]

Housing

Given Agnes Scott's emphasis on "mak[ing] lifelong friends, shar[ing] unforgettable experiences, discover[ing] meaningful places and find[ing] belonging in [their] community," a majority of students are encouraged to live on campus. [35] Thus, most students are expected to live in on-campus housing for all four years as an undergraduate at Agnes Scott College. [36] However, the proportion of commuter students has increased (from 15.6 to 18.0 percent between the 2014–2015 and 2019–2020 academic year) due to limited housing caused from an increase in the student population (from 849 to 986 total students) and renovations to the residence halls. [37] [38]

There are six resident halls situated around the Northern edge of the campus: Winship, Walters, Inman, Rebekah, Campbell and Agnes Scott Hall (nicknamed "Main"). [39]

Student organizations

There are over 60 student organizations on campus. [40] Sororities are prohibited. [41]

Publications

The college hosts several student publications, including The Silhouette, the college's yearbook published annually, and The Aurora, Agnes Scott's literary magazine, and The Profile, Agnes Scott newspaper. All students are invited to join the staff. [42]

Athletics

Agnes Scott is a member of the National Collegiate Athletic Association Division III which fields six sports teams including basketball, cross country, soccer, softball, tennis, and volleyball. All teams compete in the Collegiate Conference of the South (CCS).
