Shaw University
Founded 1865 by Henry Martin Tupper

Historical Perspective
Estey Hall
On December 1, 1865, when Henry Martin Tupper undertook the organization of a theology class as a mean of teaching
Freedmen to read and interpret the Bible, no one envisioned the end result of this being the establishment of a university.
Rapid growth in the size of this class led to the purchase of land in 1866 for the purpose of erecting a building to serve as both
church and school. The school was named the "Raleigh Institute", and it functioned as such until 1870, when it was
supplanted by the "Shaw Collegiate Institute". In 1875, it was incorporated as the "Shaw University", which name it still
bears, with the charter specifying that students were to be admitted without regard to race, creed, or sex. The school does not
bear the name of its founder but of Elijah Shaw, the benefactor who provided funds for the first building, Shaw Hall, erected
in 1871.
The coeducational emphasis of the institution was noted with the erection of the Estey Seminary (1873), the first Dormitory
in the United States for "Black Women". Named for its primary benefactor, Jacob Estey, the building was used as a residence
hall for women until 1968 and for men from 1968 to 1970. The building is listed in the National Register of Historic Places
and now serves as a cultural center for Raleigh community.
The University graduated its first college class in 1878, its first class of medical doctors in 1886, awarded its first law
degree in 1890, and its first pharmacy degree in 1893. In 1909, the Normal Department was supplanted by an Education
Department, and in 1910, the Preparatory Department became a four-year academy. The professional schools were closed in
1918, but the college, theological department, and academy were continued, the latter existing until 1926. The theological
department became a theological seminary in 1933, and continued as part of the University until 1976, when it became an
independent institution. Since 1921, Shaw has functioned primarily as a liberal arts college, although it has retained its name
as a university.
In 1931, the University elected its first Black president, Dr. William Stuart Nelson, who was president from 1931 to 1936.
In 1963, the University elected its first president who is an alumnus of the school. Dr. James E. Cheek. He remained president
from December 1963 through June 1969. Dr. Talbert O. Shaw, the current President of Shaw University, has led the
institution in its "strides to excellence" since 1987. He and Shaw University was the subject of a March 1994 cover article in
The Chronicle of Higher Education, this country's most important journal on colleges and universities. The article focuses on
the University's recent history, remarking on the great strides it has made and the momentum it has developed.

The Dove, a Christian symbol, portrays the institution's commitment to a
religious heritage, which started with the first class that eventually led to the
establishment of this University. It was a class in theology taught by Dr. Henry
Martin Tupper. December 1, 1865. The institution has remained an advocate
of the Judeo-Christian faith. The Olive Branch emphasizes victory and the
pursuit of excellence. The Torch carries with it the idea of the light that shows
the pathway to truth. The Human Figures represent all who have come to and
gone from Shaw imbued with the spirit so clearly enunciated in the life of the
founder. The Stained Glass Pattern connotes the interrelation and interde-
pendence of religion and learning proclaimed in the school motto: PRO
CHRISTO ET HUMANITATE. Religion and learning conceived as a joint
venture so that character can grow with knowledge has been an integral part
of Shaw's tradition since its' founding in 1865.

President 's Message
"Strides to Excellence: Why Not The Best?"
Dear Shawites:
The production and publication of a yearbook capture the essence of a University and permit one to view
from a pictorial perspective the vibrancy of its diverse constituency. Certainly the efforts to present the life
and times of Shaw University 2001 represent, without question, another example of the excellence that can
be achieved when administrators, faculty, staff, and students direct their energies in achieving specified and
positive goals.
This publication comes at a critical juncture in the history of our University. At this very moment, plans are
underway to evaluate the entire University in preparation for reaffirmation by the Southern Association of
Colleges and Schools (SACS) in 2002. I am excited about this chance for us to see where we stand in
reference to national accrediting standards. I have no doubt that we will do well. When one looks at our
competitive curricula offerings, energized by a faculty of whom 68% hold terminal degrees, it is not by
chance that on the annual exit evaluation done by graduating seniors in 2000, the University was given 94%
rating as being highly effective in preparing them for the world of work in their related fields of study.
Conversely, it is interesting to note that over 80% of entering students in 2000 rated the University as highly
capable of meeting the academic challenges facing the higher education community.
As the Shaw University family looks to the future, it sees that the prospect is promising. One instance of
promise is the significant upgrading of physical facilities. The S 1 3 million Talbert O. Shaw Living-Learning
Center, and the recently completed renovation of Leonard Hall, the old medical school building, represent
a building renaissance on campus.
When one looks at the fact that Shaw University has been designated as a Level III institution by the Southern
Association of Colleges and Schools at its annual meeting in Atlanta, Georgia on December 4-8, 1 999, more
impetus is given to our administrative motto of "Strides to Excellence: Why Not The Best?" Graduate
degrees are being offered by the Shaw University Divinity School which has received full accreditation by
the American Theological Society (ATS) and the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools. Plans are
underway for the University to offer graduate degrees in Education and Business.
These are exciting times for us! A committed Board of Trustees, a highly competent faculty, a student
enrollment which has increased seventy-one percent, and over 11,000 alumni scattered throughout this
country and many foreign countries suggest to me, as president, that the University is healthy and is ready
to continue preparing students to be high quality leaders of America. I applaud the entire Shaw University
family for documented excellence.
Shaw Family — your President is still committed to "'Strides to Excellence: Why Not The Best?"

REFLECTION: A PRAYER!
May today there be peace within you.
May you trust God that you are exactly where you
are meant to be.
May you not forget the infinite possibilities that
are born of faith.
May you use those gifts that you have received,
and pass on the love that has been given to you.
May you be content in knowing that you are a
child of God.
Let his presence settle into your bones, and allow
your soul the freedom to sing, dance,
and to bask in the sun.
It is there for each and everyone of you.

What are your thoughts on Shaw
University's progress in past four years?
Shevera Reddick-Simmons stated: During
my four years, the progress that is most signifi-
cant is the increase in resources, and student
participation in clubs and organizations that
are structured to build the gap between the
leaders of tommorrow and the leaders of to-
day.

SENIORS: HAVE YOU CHANGED?
What changes have you seen within
yourself during your matriculation at
Shaw U.?
Bobbye A. Lee stated, there are many
changes she has seen within herself. She
feels that the most important change has
been her level of confidence. Shaw U. has
given her an excellent education and that
has given her the confidence to pursue
her career without the fear of failure. She
further states that with her newfound
confidence she can achieve anything.
Bobbye ends by saying: "Strides to Excel-
lence: Now she's one of the Best."
Seniors 41
Bobbye smiles as she shares her memories.

SENIORS SPEAK OUT!
Can you name one advantage that Shaw U
has over other Historically Black Colleges?
Patrice Burrell responded: The one advantage
that Shaw U has over any other Historically
Black College is, its unique since of
commitment, to not only religious education,
but also its spiritual development in the lives
of all students.
Patrice showing her Shmv U. Pride!

Under the direction of Jacques Curtis , the Lady Bears fought to the very end against
Denmark Technical College. The Shaw Bears came out victorious against Benedict

LEONARD HALL
Leonard Hall was the first medical school and hospital erected to educate colored people in the south. It was erected in 1881 and contained lecture I
rooms, an amphitheatre and dissecting rooms. In 1885 a 25 bed hospital opened for patients. The Restoration of Leonard Hall has been a long proces|
The opening of its doors has bought back old memories and the distinct beauty of its place on the Shaw U campus. The new Leonard Hall will be a
fundamental learning center and will provide needed class space. Shaw U is currently planning its dedication ceremonies to properly commemorate
this monumental event.

Weariness
Mine eyes are weary of surveying
The fairest things, too soon decaying;
Mine ears are weary of receiving
The kindest words-ah, past believing!
Weary my hope, of ebb and flow;
Weary my pulse, of tunes of woe:
My trusting heart is weariest!
I would-I would, I were at rest!
Forme, can earth refuse to fade?
For me, can words be faithful made?
Will my embitter 'd hope be sweet
My pulse forgo the human beat?
No! Darkness must consume mine eye
Silence, mine ear—hope cease-pulse die
And o 'er mine hearts a stone be press 'd
Or vain this, - "Would I were at rest!"
There is a land of rest deferr 'd:
Nor eye hath seen, nor ear hath heard,
Nor Hope hath trod the precinct o 'er;
For Hope beheld its hope no more!
There, human pulse forgets its tone
There, hearts may know as they are known!
O ' for dove s wings, thou dwelling blest,
To fly to thee, and be at rest!

Because I Could Not Stop for Death
Because I could not stop for Death,
He kindly stopped for me;
The carriage held but just ourselves
And Immortality.
We slowly drove, he know no haste,
And I had put away
My labor, and my leisure too.
For his civility.
We passed the school where children strove
At recess in the ring.
We passed the fields of gazing grain,
We passed the setting sun,
Or rather, he passed us
The dews drew quivering and chill,
For only gossamer my gown,
My tippet only tulle.
We paused before a house that seemed
A swelling of the ground;
The roof was scarcely visible,
The cornice in the ground.
Since then — 'tis centuries— and yet
Feels shorter than the day
I first sunnised the horses ' heads
Were toward eternity

Memorial 155
Welcome,
We, the Bear 2001 staff are here to take you on a journey. We are
here to show you the life and history of our Alma Mater, the |
uncompromising, unmovable, unintimidated, and undisputed
mother of black institutions in the south.
The historic Shaw University.
Founded by Dr. Henry Martin Tupper of Massachusetts in
1865, Shaw is the oldest black university in the south and the
second oldest in the country. She has an undisputed record of
setting standards for education that has
undoubtably left imprints of change
for higher education. Shaw is a small
institution with great achievements that
have only been accomplished through
the combined efforts of students,
faculty, staff, administration, and
alumni who work tirelessly to make
Dr. Henry Martin Tupper . .
1865-1893 Shaw University what it is today.

I 56 Reflect and Respond
,Jhe has produced college presidents, bank presidents, educators,
iloctors, lawyers, city commissioners, civil rights leaders, actors,
ithletes and preachers. All having the respect and accolades of then-
peers and counterparts within their trained professions.
Kthin her sacred halls have traveled generational students along
ith first generation university students. They have traveled from
;arly every county in North Carolina.
Reflect and Respond 157
Yet, she has challenged students from as far west as California,
as far north as New York, and as far south as Florida. She has
even stretched as far as Africa to train our brothers and sisters,
and has opened her doors to students from the Virgin Islands.
I 58 Reflect and Respond
No, there is none like our Shaw
University. None!! She continues her
tradition of providing an education
enhanced with Christian principles.
She dares to declare to the world that
her foundation, her rock, her purpose
is found only in the blood of the lamb.
She is an institution who screams to the top of her lungs:
For Christ and Humanity!! Shaw not only speaks these
words, she lives them. Her every move and action ends
with giving praise to her Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
Reflect and Respond 159
History has recorded and declared her many death warrants. Yet
she has managed to face death, curse it and knock it down with a
cold hard blow. She stands today to declare to the world that
although many have counted her out, and though many have
tried to destroy her. She is still here. Alive, and achieving what
many cannot or will not.
Come let us show you how our Alma Mater,
our University... Shaw University
is breaking through and
Moving Towards Higher Ground..

Alpha Kappa Alpha is the oldest Greek-letter organization established in America by Black college women. The
record of its origin, growth and development, activities, evolving goals, and accomplishments is more than an
interesting chronicle of a colorful bit of college-based Americana. It is, rather, a significant and inspiring reflection
of the emergence of a dynamic group in a changing culture. The efforts of Alpha Kappa Alpha women in the
promotion of high scholarship, vocational and career guidance, health services, the advancement of human and
civil rights, and in so many other areas constitute a priceless part of the American experience in the twentieth
century.
The Beta Rho chapter was founded on the campus of Shaw University on January 31, 1938. Its members are
young ladies who possess high scholastic achievement and demonstrate the qualities of finer womanhood. They arc
committed to serving mankind and have been recognized on local, regional, national, and international levels.

On Friday evening, November 17, 1911, three
Howard University undergraduate students, with the
assistance of their faculty advisor, gave birth to the
Omega Psi Phi Fraternity. This event occurred in the
office of biology Professor Ernest E. Just, in the
Science Hall (now known as Thirkield Hall). The
three liberal arts students were Edgar A. Love,
Oscar J. Cooper and Frank Coleman.
From the initials of the Greek phrase meaning
"friendship is essential to the soul," the name Omega
Psi Phi was derived. The phrase was selected as the
motto. Manhood, scholarship, perseverance and
uplift were adopted as cardinal principles. A decision
was made regarding the design for the pin and
emblem, and thus ended the first meeting of the
Omega Psi Phi Fraternity

Teamwork creates good sportsmanship!

ON YOUR MARK; GET SET; GO!
The Bears Lead The Way To Victory.
Many traditions come and go at Shaw University, but one that will never leave is the prayer that the Track Team says
before each meet. Prayers were answered as the season kicked off with absolute success. Women's Cross Country not
only won the championship, but two runners, Shakima Chambers and Lauraine Harris, rose through the ranks to claim the
all conference title. Kamala Jennings commented: The Mens Indoor track team began the season at Lynchburg which as
"Lloyd Knight exclaims would embark them on a new journey... tobe one step ahead." "Although there were different
leaders in each aspect of track and field, it was always good to have someone else over us, besides the coach." The Lady
Bears were small in number, but big in hearts!

The Mens Tennis Team continues competitive play,
while serving up excellence in full swing.
The Mens Tennis Team had a very successful season. These players knew that nothing could stop them froij
winning the conference. With a long and tough schedule, the Bears were eager to start playing. Returning til
year were five (5) distinguished gentlemen, and a new set of freshmen. Having a young team is usually the?
toughest stage to be in, but they don't call us Bears for nothing-we are determined to have a successful
season. Jay Roach commented that "I have had a wonderful time being on the Tennis team. I felt that I gairj
something each time I played a match."

To all of my fellow classmates

you the verses of a creed that
has helped me to maintain my
dignity, love and respect
through out my educational
endeavors at Shaw University.
Thanks to my loving parents, Pierce and Barbara Moore
The Optimist Creed
Promise yourself:
To be so strong that nothing can disturb your peace
of mind.
To talk health, happiness and prosperity to every person you
meet.
To make all your friends feel that there is something in them.
To look at the sunny side of everything and make your optimism
come true.
To think only of the best and expect only the best.
To be just as enthusiastic about the success of others as you are about
your own.
To forget the mistakes of the past and press on to greater achievements
of the future.
To wear a cheerful countenance at all times and give every living
creature you meet a smile.
To give so much time to the improvement of yourself that you have no
time to criticize others.
To be too large for worry, to noble for anger, too strong for fear, and
too happy to permit the presence of trouble.
And may God be with you alwavs.

Do not take anything personally. Nothing others do is because of you. What others say and do is a projection of their own
reality, their own dream. When you are immune to the opinions and actions of others, you won't be the victim of needless
suffering. Love, Mom and Dad
For your spiritis are burning with the hopes and dreams of your destiny. The beauty of it all is that you have a major part to

Congratulations, ^^^
You have accomplished what many
before you , and perhaps many that come
after you, can only hope to accomplish.
gS
As a young child growing up, we have tried to teach you many lessons. One of
these lessons was that the help that you received when you were coming up should
be reciprocated. In other words, you should also help someone in return, with no
injury to yourself. Finally, another lesson that we hop stays with you, as a young
adult, is that you are judged by the company you keep, so choose your company
wisely. Again, a hearty congratulations goes out to you in a very, very big way.
From your family,
Mom, Dad, and Sis

Alma Mater
(Tune: "How Can I Leave Thee")
Hail Dear Old Shaw U,
Thy Sons revere thy name,
Long shall thy works be proud,
Undimmed thy fame.
Time shall thy praises sing,
Glory repay thy tears,
And Loud thy praises ring,
Thru' all the years.
Noble thy hallways,
Noble thy grassy plains,
Nobler the hearts of men,
Where thou dost reign.
All we who love thy name,
Stout hearts that shall not fail,
All rise and loud proclaim,
Alma Mater, Hail!
Words by Harry Payne, Class of 1935
