Description: Bryson College existed between 1919 and 1929. In 1929, it formally closed and transferred students to nearby Erskine College and Seminary. From an online historical description: "After the Associate Reformed Presbyterian Church had founded Erskine College at Due West, South Carolina in 1839, congregations that had moved west into Tennessee, Arkansas, and Alabama began planning a college for youth in their region. The result was the selection of Fayetteville, a small town in south central Tennessee, as the location for a college. Classes began there in the fall of 1919... ... The aim of Bryson College was “to discipline the mind, to build strong Christian character, and to develop symmetrical men and women.” As a result, students had strong chapters of the YMCA and YWCA that sent delegates to a regional volunteer conference. Additionally, there were two literary societies—Wilsonian and Victorian—each with male and female components. The glee club and orchestra performed comic operettas in 1922 and 1928 and an Easter cantata in 1927. Bryson students engaged in debates both between the literary societies and against David Lipscomb College and Middle Tennessee Normal."
