IReport of tbe presibent. Jo the Honorable Board of Trustees, Wilberforce University : Gentlemen:—Again, we are amid the busy scenes of another commencement. The multiplied duties devloving upon us in the management and conduct of the University and her interests taxed us to such an extent that the year has passed swiftly and it seems that it was but yesterday that we transacted the business of the previous ses¬ sion of the Trustee Board. Hampered by great need of money and by difficiencies coming down to us through previous years, supplemented by a determination to refrain from using our special funds for current expenses, and from the use of Endowments by l®aning to ourselves; all this in the face of an almost total failure of Endow*nent Day Collection made for us a year of many trials; but wf thank God that we have in a good degree carried Our purpose, created no deficit in the true sense of the word and paid off a little of the back debt according to the information of the Officer of Finance. In all other respects, we have had quite a prosperous year. Soon the need of additional buildings will be a piessing demand. We had about 400 students this year of which 184 were in the College proper. God has blessed us with immunity from contagious diseases, sickness and death in our immediate school family except in two very sad cases: Brother S. S. Curry of the Theological Department, lost mental balance and committed suicide under cir¬ cumstance quite unavoidable, and A.^G. Decker, one of our African students from the West Coast died^during the summer vacation, having drowned at Columbus, Ohio. I desire here to express grateful thanks to the Executive Board for the splendid aid it has given, and also to 2 my colleagues in the Faculty for the aid which they have given in administrative work. I hardly think it possible for a small band of workers to do more for the cause which commands their attention than these teachers have done. All of them are overworked and under¬ paid. The day has not yet come but I think it is not far distant when the University Board of Trustees will find themselves able to better remunerate our teachers for their arduous labor. THE OPENING OF SCHOOL. On the third of last September, we opened school as usual with some breaks in our ranks. Mrs. Louisa R. Armstrong, who served us as Matron the previous year, with grace and good poise of spirit, resigned. We were greatly fortunate in securing as her succes¬ sor Mrs. Mattie E. Cheeks, an alumna of the Universitv. I think that in the history of Wilberforce University we have not had, as Matron, one who was Mrs. Cheek's superior. She is ever on the a'ert to the best good of the University, of splendid personal balance and self-control; full of patience and yet strong for the right, posses- ing a keen sense of propriety — a model Matron. We were exceed¬ ingly unfortunate, however, in that a long, serious illness in case of her mother necessarily took her from us for over three months in mid¬ year. We were more than fortunate in securing the temporary ser* vices of Miss Hallie Q. Brown, another alumna of the University, who with rare tact, and grace, and strong personality, took up the work where Mrs. Cheeks left off. Not supposing, at the time, that Mrs. Cheeks would be detained so long, at the end of the month pro¬ fessional engagements called Miss Brown away from us. We were then put to the necessity of securing the aid of Mrs. Prof. Charles Alexander, who remained with us one month, rendering very valuable services for which we are grateful; after which time we were put to the necessity of securing another Matron, because Mrs. Alexander could not serve us longer. By this time Miss Brown had returned and reluctantly consented to come again to our aid. These frequent changes, which we could not avoid, making it necessary to re-adjust the student body at each change to the personal traits which naturally belong to individuality, began to be felt in our work. At my request the Executive Board employed Miss Brown to iremain with us for the rest of the school year as teacher and tern- — 3 — porary Matron, pending the return of Mrs. Cheeks, so as to be sure that we would have no more changes. Inasmuch as Prof. E. A. Clarke was called away, the addition of Miss Brown to the teaching force was necessary in order to enable us to bring our work up to the required standard. Her services were very valuable to us and we are under many obligations to her and the Board. The loss of Prof. E. A. Clarke was a great blow to us, but inasmuch as his services were demanded in the Presidency of Lincoln Institute, thus honoring Wilberforce and blessing himself and family, our pain, because of his loss, was greatly modified on account of his gain. In this connection, I also desire to mention the fact that just as we were preparing to open school our Ladv Principal, Miss Lizzie C. Anderson, handed us her resignation and was happily.married to a Mr. Camp¬ bell, of St. Louis, Mo. After carefully considering the matter the Executive Board, upon the recommendation of your humble servant, concluded that we could get along for the year without filling that position, and resolved so to do. Prof. M. J. Gilliam, the new teacher in mathematics, was with us at the opening of school and took up his work with a great deal of zeal, and consecrated to it the splendid abil¬ ities acquired through long training and good character. He devoted himself to the work of his department zealously and has done splendid work. I regret to inform the Board that, for reasons best known to himself, he has concluded not to serve us another year, and has offi¬ cially so informed me. I make known this fact with a deal of regret. PAYNE THEOLOGICAL SEMINARY. In this department, Bishop B. T. Tanner was elected Dean at the last annual meeting of the Board oi Directors; Profs. Woodson and Wright were elected as teachers. The Bishop has not spent the time among us this year that he did last year and the work has been largely carried on by Profs. Woodson and Wright and myself, with the assist¬ ance of Bishop Arnett and Dr. Coleman. Bishop Tanner gave a very interesting series of lectures last year which we very much missed this year, The financial embarrassment of the Seminary continues side by side with that of the College and the reasons which account for this state of affairs with one, very largely account for the same with the other. It seems to me a great piece of short-sightedness on our part to continue to multiply schools and departments, while the — 4 — many useful schools already started are so poorly cared for. My be¬ lief is that Wilberforce community furnishes the best opportunity for the proper development of a Theological Department of any place in the connection, because of its central locality, its freedom from op¬ pression which prevails in many sections of the country and which tend to stifle unfolding manhood. It seems to me that the hour has come for reason to assert itself and for impulse to give way to reason so that we may respond to the great need of our work. THE C. N. & I. DEPARTMENT. This department has as its Superintendent Prof. J. P. Shorter, a graduate of Wilberforce University and for a long time a teacher in the University. This department is fast developing, owing to the fact that the State of Ohio, through its Representatives and Senators, seems ever ready to give it adequate financial support. The new building is now about completed, the grounds are being put in order and all will be ready for use at the opening of the school year in Septem¬ ber next. In all of its various departments, good work has been done. As stated in our last Annual Report, the Normal and Industrial Board had committed itself to the idea of making the Industrial Arm of its department very strong and practical. We shall in the coming year properly install Departments of Brick-making and Brick-laying, Smithing and Wheelwrighting, and Scientific Agriculture. The money is already on hand for these departments and various committees have plans on foot for the carrying out of these designs. WILBERFORCE. The old mother, the centre, the life and foundation of all her departments, remains vigorous; at the same time keeping step with progress. We had in the College Department this year one-hundred and eighty-four students out of a total enrollment of about 400. The greatest need of the institution is finance. I believe, however, that a better day is dawning upon us. There are three or four good reasons for this faith: r. We have not used, for current expenses, any of the Endowment money; nor are we indulging in the false policy of loaning to ourselves. II. We have, in the true sense, no deficit in the year's expenses. What we have paid out of the year's income, on back debts, would more than equal the shortage of the year's expenses as the Secretary's report will show. If the over-due interest of aboyt $1600 on our loans, amounting to $7,000, was paid we would be well on the way toward reduction of the old debts. Something ought to be done by this board about this matter. III. The inspiration generated by Founder's Day Rally seems to betray the sign of better things. In the observance of Founder's Day, more than $700.00 was realized—a thing unprecedented in the history of the University and in addition to the cash there was manifested an enthusiasm among the students and friends of the University never before known. Indeed, we have developed in the hearts of the students a Wilberforce Spirit and genuine love of the cause, which, if kept up, will be fruitful of much good in the future. IV. The development of the Boarding Hall Department has been very gratifying and seems to give assurance of being a reliable source of revenue hereafter. Two years ago, with the permission of the Executive Board and under the auspices of the. Dining Hall Committee, your humble servant strenuously set to work in the application of business principles to the Dining Hall Depart¬ ment. Along with others he believed that one of the chief duties at the seat of the University was to husband her strength as well as to economically spend the moneys coming into the treasury from with¬ out. It was thought that the large pasture-field, hitherto public pasturing land for the neighborhood, ought to be utilized by the College transmuting the grass into butter and milk and marketing it in our own Dining Hall. Also that the vacant ground might be utilized in growing table products and the valuable waste from the kitchen might be so utilized as to be a means of profit; to these ends we directed our efforts. We are glad to report that we now have fourteen head of cattle all paid lor, and some twenty-seven head of swine all paid for, well worth $700, and two or three acres of garden which we can hardly estimate, utensils for the Dining Hall, easily worth $100, all of which are paid foi; and in addition we have paid between $400 and $500 into the College Treasury and at the close of the Dining Hall for the season, we hope to be able to turn some additional cash into the College Treasury. All of this we have done without the contribution of a dollar from the College Treasury or any other source. Having this condition as a basis for future operations, I see no reason why the Garden, Pasture, Stock and the Dining Hall —known as the Boarding Department—could not be counted on for $iooo to the College Treasury annually, which would be a new source of revenue. I desire at this point to ask the Board to fix the rate of expenses for the school year at the following figures, which are the exact figures published in the Annual Catalogue on page 18 : Tuition and incidentals for English Preparatory - 50 per term Tuition and incidentals for Classical, Scientific, Col¬ lege Preparatory, Normal and Business Courses 9 50 per term Room rent - - - - - - - 3 00 " " Fuel and incidentals - - - - - - 2 00 " " This is but a small increase in the quarterly cost for students; but when applied to the whole student body would bring an additional revenue of about $1000. With our revenues thus increased perma¬ nently by $2000, in our local resources, we see considerable light ahead. Your humble servant made quite an extensive lecture tour during the school year from which we realized several hundred dollars. Through the courtesies of Bishop Arnett, he also visited the Confer¬ ences in the Third Episcopal District from which he brought in several hundred dollars. These trips through the field, have been valuable to the College in other ways than money-getting. I am pleased to report that the graduates, who have returned to Africa, have carried the College to the hearts of that people. Letters are coming from all sections of South Africa. Through the Rev. A. Henry Attaway, at Cape Town, negotiations have been carried on and are now completed by which two of the Chiefs will send us four of their sons to begin school in September. These Chiefs are wealthy and will pay the expenses of their boys. We are sorry that Endowment Day hitherto so fruitful to the University and upon which we have so long depended is to all intents and purposes a practical failure. We are committing a great Connect- ional Crime by cutting the throat of Wilberforce University and the Theological Department in order to uphold an impractical theory. The officers of the University are entirely helpless to effect a remedy. It is the prayer of Wilberforce that the Bishops and General Officers, and ministers generally, would in the name of Christian Education find a way to make Endowment Day fruitful in our District. I have not a word of reflection upon Secretary Hawkins; but truth forces me to say that the present theory for the operation of this district is imprac- tical and would not bring proper results under any management-at this period of our racial development. RECOMMENDATIONS. I recommend that the following degrees in course be conferred in as much as the parties herein named have satisfactorily completed the work as laid down in the catalogue: Brown, Arthur A. Eachelor of Science. Brown, Charles H. ... Bachelor of Science. Coleman, Susanna W. - - - Bachelor of Arts. Johnson, Kathryn M. - - - Bachelor of Science. Jones, Gilbert H. - Bachelor of Arts. Kakaza, Theodore M. - - - Bachelor of Science. Steward, T. Bolden - - - Bachelor of Arts. Wright, James C. - Bachelor of Science. I have carefully considered the teaching force and in the light of the facts at my command feel warranted in recommending the re-elec¬ tion of the old force of teachers. For the teacher in Mathematics, I most heartily recommend Prof. Earl Finch, who has applied for the place and who is eminently fitted by nature and in character and scholarship to develope that department. For the teacher in Science I recommend Mr. Bruce H. Greene, who is a nephew of Rev. Bruce H. Williams, of Georgetown, South Carolina, a graduate of Exeter Academy and of Brown University with the degree Ph. B., or Prof. E. W. Benton, M.S., A.M., of Paducah, Ky., who comes highly recommended by Bishop Tanner and who is a teacher of twelve year's experience. STUDENT BODY. COLLEGE. 1. Classical, 18 2. Scientific, 26 3.

To the Honorable Board of Trustees of If ilberforce University in Session at Wilberforce, Ohio, June 17th, 1902. Reverend Dear Fathers and Brethren:—After greetings and thanks to the Almighty God, " From Whom All Blessings Flow," I beg to submit the following report. buildings and grounds. We have made considerable repairs this year, but only such as were absolutely necessary. The general drought caused our wells and springs to fail us, so to meet the water supply we will have to drive the old wells deeper, and sink at leist two new ones. James A. Shorter Hall must have an entire new roof, and all the hall floors should be relaid. The cottages in the campus are demand¬ ing large repairs to make them tenantable at all, for the coming school year. The fact is, the out-lay for repairs on our buildings, such as must be made for the comfort and health of our boys and girls will be at least $2000. The College Aid Society has helped us very much and is always ready to lend a helping hand. norristown property. Is in good condition and is growing in value. Taxes, insurance, and the interest on the $800, has been paid from rents this year, and the balance to the good of the University is $84.80. M. A. Shoemaker, Agent. IO — YELLOW SPRINGS PROPERTY. Was never in better condition than now. After settlement of all claims there is a balance of $279.12 which reduces the mortgage just that much. J. T. Hornaday, Agent. FINANCES. The burning question of the hour. It goes without the saying that the University is sadly in need of funds. Bishop B. W. Arnett, chairman of the Executive Board and each member thereof, has spent his time, influence and money as well, to keep everything intact to your coming. Please plan for an increase of revenue that the work you wish done may be untrameled. Besides the regular running expenses, and the absolutely necessary repairs that must be made, there are notes in bank which we will be compelled to pay within the next year. Our debt has decreased so little that we take no special delight in calling attention to it. Of course if the interest on our sacred funds was all paid up to date, we could settle with our teachers in full, then as the balances due us from our Financial and Missionary Departments, as well as what is due us from conferences, etc., in a word, if our creditors would settle with us, as we are made to settle with ours, our financial condition would be very much improved. Please find in the following pages the amount of money received from all sources, and from whom received. Then the tabulated state¬ ment, to whom and for what purpose the same has been disbursed.
