Author Lyle Crist has created a pictorial history of the college using over 200 vintage images, capturing the essence of a school often referred to by first president O.N. Hartshorn, as a cosmic institution for the people. From academy to seminary, to a chartered college in 1858, Mount Union followed the traditional educational paths of its day, with an unfettered spirit towards academia, co-education, sports, and religious studies. Pictured here are the students, presidents, buildings, and activities that are remembered by both alumni and current students and faculty: the acquirement of Scio College in the college's early years, Morgan Gymnasium, the internationally traveled Mount Union Choir, Chapman Hall, and the Clarke Observatory.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Atlantic Books","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46312146796695,"sku":"9780738508016","price":2433.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9780738508016.webp?v=1767704279","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/mount-union-college-9780738508016","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
