the draper cameraThe first fast-action camera in the world was developed by John W. Draper
(Professor of Chemistry, 1836–1839) while at Hampden-Sydney. Created from in-depth scientific and cooperative research, the camera is on display in the front gallery of the Museum. By using the camera and a departmental telescope, Draper wrote he took the first astronomical photographs. After leaving
Hampden-Sydney College to become a professor at New York University Medical College, Draper was able to take the world’s first true portrait of a living person on September 23, 1839.
the saber of latanéAlso on display are the officer’s saber and scabbard belonging to Captain William Latané,
Class of 1853 (in Hampden-Sydney’s Medical Department). His death in the Civil War Battle of Old Church inspired a poem by John R. Thompson and artwork by William Dickenson Washington;
engravings of Washington’s iconic painting became popular throughout the South. The saber is clearly visible in the engraving of Washington’s work on display.

RECIPIENT OF HONORARY DEGREEAND COMMENCEMENT SPEAKER
W. TAYLOR REVELEY I I I
Doctor of Humane Letters
W. TAYLOR REVELEY III was sworn in as the 27th president of William & Mary in September 2008, after serving as interim president since the previous February. Before assuming his current post, he served as dean of William & Mary Law School for almost a decade, starting in August 1998. He is the John Stewart Bryan Professor of Jurisprudence.
Reveley received his A.B. from Princeton University in 1965, where he studied in the Woodrow Wilson School of Public and International Affairs, was elected to Phi Beta Kappa and rowed on the lightweight crew for two years. Reveley went to law school at the University of Virginia, receiving his J.D. in 1968. While at UVA he was elected to Order of the Coif, ODK and the Raven Society.
During the United States Supreme Court’s 1969 term, he clerked for Justice William J. Brennan, Jr.
Reveley has extensively studied and written about the constitutional division of the war powers between the President and Congress. In 1972-73, he spent 13 months studying the war powers while an International Affairs Fellow of the Council on Foreign Relations in New York City and a Fellow of the Woodrow Wilson Center for Scholars in Washington, D.C. He is the author of War Powers of the President and Congress: Who Holds the Arrows and Olive Branch? (University of Virginia Press, 1981). In 2007-08, he co-directed the War Powers Commission, established by the Miller Center at the University of Virginia and co-chaired by former Secretaries of State James Baker and Warren Christopher.
Before joining William & Mary, Reveley practiced law for over a quarter century at Hunton & Williams, where he specialized in energy matters, especially those involving commercial nuclear power. He was the managing partner of the firm for nine years.
Much of Reveley’s extracurricular time has gone to non-profit organizations. He has served on many educational, cultural and religious boards, including those of Princeton University (where he is a trustee emeritus), Union Theological Seminary in Virginia, St. Christopher’s School, the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation, JSTOR, the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace, the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts, the Virginia Historical Society, the Virginia Foundation for the Humanities, the Richmond Symphony, and the Presbyterian Church (USA) Foundation. He has chaired the boards of the Mellon Foundation, Virginia Museum of Fine Arts, Virginia Historical Society and Richmond Symphony. He now chairs the boards of the Jefferson Science Associates and the Oak Spring Foundation.
Reveley and his wife Helen have four children: Taylor, Everett, Nelson and Helen Lanier, daughters-in-law, Margaret Louise (married to Taylor) and Jessica (married to Nelson), and three grandchildren.

THE BIRTHPLACE
Built in 1756 and renovated in 2000, the Birthplace is nicely furnished for conferences. The Birthplace was originally the plantation office of Nathaniel Venable at his home, Slate Hill,
which stood about three miles south of Hampden-Sydney. It was in this office that final plans for the opening of the College were made. In 1944 the owners of Slate Hill gave the office
building to Hampden-Sydney, and it was moved to its present location.

New College was the result of the crusading fund-raising efforts of President Jonathan Cushing; it is now named in his honor. Begun in 1822 and completed in 1833, it replaced the 18th-century buildings and set a new north-south
orientation for the campus. This woodcut, the earliest known image of Hampden-Sydney College, appears in Henry Howe’s “Historical Collections of Virginia” (1845); the drawing probably dates to his visit in 1843.

ACADEMIC REGALIA
The pageantry and dress of the academic procession have been inherited from the medieval universities of the 11th and 12th centuries. Academic life as we know it today began in the Middle Ages, first in the Church, then in the guilds. In the teaching guild the master of arts was the teacher and the bachelor was the apprentice of the master; their dress was the outward sign of privilege and responsibility. Principal features of academic dress are the gown, the cap, and the hood. Since the 15th century, both Cambridge and Oxford have made academic dress a matter of university control, even to its minor details, and have repeatedly published revised regulations. American universities agreed on a definite system in 1895. In 1932 the American Council on Education presented a revised code which, for the most part, governs the style of academic dress today. The Gown: The flowing gown comes from the 12th century. While it originally may have been worn as a protection against the cold of unheated buildings, today it has become symbolic of the democracy of scholarship, for it covers any dress of rank or social
standing. It is black for all degrees, with pointed sleeves for the bachelor’s degree, long closed sleeves with a slit at the arm or wrist for the master’s degree, and full bell double sleeves for the doctor’s degree. Bachelor’s and master’s degree gowns have no trimming. For the doctor’s degree, the gown is faced down the front with velvet and has three bars of velvet across the sleeves in the color distinctive of the faculty or discipline to which the degree pertains. The Cap: Under Roman law a freed slave won the privilege of wearing a cap. The academic cap is a sign of freedom of scholarship and the responsibility and dignity with which scholarship endows the wearer. Old poetry records the cap of scholarship as square to symbolize a book. The color of the tassel sometimes denotes the discipline of the degree. The Doctoral Hood: The doctoral hood is trimmed with one or more chevrons of a second color on the ground of a primary color. The color facing the hood denotes the discipline represented by the degree; the color of the lining designates the university or college from which the degree was granted.

A BRIEF HISTORY OF HAMPDEN-SYDNEY COLLEGE
Hampden-Sydney College’s heritage is deeply rooted in the history of both Colonial America and the Presby-terian Church. The founders of the College chose the name Hampden-Sydney to symbolize their devotion to the principles of representative government and full civil and religious freedom which John Hampden (1594–1643) and Algernon Sydney (1622–1683) had outspokenly supported, and for which they had given their lives, in England’s two great constitutional crises of the seventeenth century. They were widely invoked as hero-martyrs by American colonial patriots, and their names were immediately associated with the cause of independence championed by James Madison, Patrick Henry, and other less well-known, but equally vigorous, patriots among the College’s early Trustees. Indeed, the original students eagerly commit-ted themselves to the revolutionary effort, organized a militia company, drilled regularly, and went off to the defense of Williamsburg and of Petersburg, in 1777 and 1778 respectively. Their uniform of hunting shirts—dyed purple with the juices of pokeberries—and grey trousers prefigured the College’s traditional colors, garnet and grey. First proposed in 1771, the College was formally organized in February 1775, when the Presbytery of Hanover, meeting in Nathaniel Ven-able’s Slate Hill plantation (about two miles south of the present campus), accepted a gift of one hundred acres for the College, elected Trustees, and named as Rector (later President) the Rev. Mr. Samuel Stanhope Smith, valedictorian of the Princeton class of 1769, who had been actively promoting the idea of establishing a college in the heavily Scotch-Irish area of south-central Virginia since he began his ministry there in 1772. Within only ten months, Smith, intending to model the new college after his own alma mater, secured an adequate subscription of funds and an enrollment of 110 students. Students and faculty began gathering in the fall of 1775; the first classes were held on November 10. The College completed its first full year in 1776 and has never suspended operations. In 1783, Hampden-Sydney’s viability, severely tested by the Revolutionary War, was ensured by the grant of a charter from the General Assembly of Virginia. Union Theological Seminary of Virginia (1822) was founded at Hampden-Sydney and occupied the south
end of the present campus for some seventy-five years before relocating to Richmond. The Medical College of Virginia was established (1837) at Richmond as the medical department of Hampden-Sydney. The College matured physically and academically through the first half of the nineteenth century, enjoy-ing the services of some remarkably gifted leaders. Jonathan P. Cushing, a Dartmouth man and the first layman to be president, oversaw the abandonment of the College’s original buildings in favor of the hand-some Federal architecture which still distinguishes the campus. The world-renowned chemist, Dr. John W. Draper, built the first camera in America and used it to take the world’s first astronomical photographs while he was a professor at Hampden-Sydney from 1836 to 1839; he later took the first photograph of a living person. During the Civil War the students organized a
company, with President J. M. P. Atkin-son as captain. Officially named the
“Hampden-Sydney Boys,” they saw action only in the battle of Rich Mountain (June 10–11, 1861); cap-tured as a body, they were paroled by General McClellan on the condi-
tion that they lay down their arms and return to their studies. After the Seminary moved to Richmond in 1898, a most
generous alumnus, Major R. M. Venable, bought its buildings and gave
them to the College. Throughout the twentieth century,
handsome and practical buildings (among them, most recently, as a result of a success-ful campaign that raised over $100 million, a new 83,000-square-foot library, a new stadium, and an expanded athletic center) have been added to the campus, while Hampden-Sydney’s academic, social, and cultural programs have been continually enriched and expanded, strengthening the coherent tradition of liberal arts education which remains the hallmark of the College. Its success in forging good men and lead-ers is widely recognized. Hampden-Sydney looks into its third century with a wholesome optimism, bred of a sober integrity of mission coupled with a history of sound development, and made possible by an extraordinary succession of leaders and benefactors of rare ability, commitment, and vision.
