Sweet Briar College
(Peter Stackpole. 1951)
Sweet Briar College. No truer words spoken.
“Alma mater, down in Dixie-land, we dream of you; Rose of old Sweet Briar through the years we turn to you; Mem'ries are calling where blue mists are falling, And the pines softly sigh as the breeze murmurs by.”
“To students from the South, the college will offer a training peculiarly suited to their needs and to the social conditions in which they have been reared; and to all young women, from whatever section they may come, the institution will furnish a well-rounded college education, preparing them for teaching, fitting them for business professions and qualifying them for a more useful life in the home.  With a well-equipped corps of professors and carefully-arranged courses of study, with its admirable location, its beautiful surroundings, its atmosphere of repose and refinement, Sweet Briar possesses exception advantages, and should fulfill the wish of the directions to make it a worthy monument to the liberality of its founder.”
- original mission statement of the Sweet Briar Institute, Last Will & Testament of Indiana Fletcher Williams, 1899

Today is Founders’ Day! It’s on this day that we pay our respects to the founders of Sweet Briar by walking up to Monument Hill and laying flowers on their graves. It’s also the first day that seniors wear their graduation robes, as you can see in this clip of a promotional film from 1939!
