West Street in Carlisle.\u00a0 The exhibit covers the sweeping story of more than 150 years, from when hAfrican Americans participated in the shaping of college life during the eighteenth century as slaves hired out to help build the campus all the way to the late nineteenth century and early twentieth century when the children of former slaves helped integrate the school as students.\u00a0 <strong>Read for free || <a href=\"http:\/\/housedivided.dickinson.edu\/sites\/slavery\/files\/2019\/02\/Exhibit-Catalog.pdf\">Exhibit Catalog<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h4><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">College Histories<\/span><\/h4>\n<p>With roots as an educational institution dating back to 1773, Dickinson College has had more than its share of official and unofficial histories.\u00a0 However, the subject of slavery almost never gets mentioned in any of these publications. The first notable instance comes from Horatio Collins King in his 1897 history of the college, which mentions John Nevin, a now-obscure man who graduated with Roger B. Taney (Class of 1795) and whom King identifies (incorrectly) as &#8220;author of the first anti-slavery publications in this country.&#8221;\u00a0McAlarney&#8217;s brief speech in 1904 describes a beloved campus tradition of &#8220;Spradley&#8217;s dinners&#8221; (Henry W. Spradley was a former slave from Virginia who served as janitor and bell ringer in Old West from the late 1870s to the 1890s), but otherwise provides little context for understanding the role of ex-slaves at Dickinson. The most comprehensive modern history of the college (Sellers, 1973) covers several aspects of the sectional debates over slavery and how they affected students and faculty, but provides almost no details concerning any individuals who were actually enslaved.\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0In other words, despite decades of general historical inquiry, the subject of Dickinson College&#8217;s ties to slavery and antislavery has remained essentially unexplored until now.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/archives.dickinson.edu\/sites\/all\/files\/files_document\/RG1-1_7-3-2_0.pdf\">A Sketch of the Rise, Progress and Present State of Dickinson College<\/a>\u00a0(1811)<\/li>\n<li>Charles Collins, <a href=\"http:\/\/archives.dickinson.edu\/sites\/all\/files\/files_document\/Collins_DickinsonCollege.pdf\">Dickinson College<\/a> (1856)<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/archives.dickinson.edu\/sites\/all\/files\/files_document\/I-Original-1866-2_0.pdf\">Dickinson College and Its Alumni<\/a> (1866)<\/li>\n<li>William Allen, <a href=\"http:\/\/archives.dickinson.edu\/sites\/all\/files\/files_document\/Allen_Dickinson_College_HistoricalSketch_0.pdf\">Dickinson College: An Historical Sketch<\/a> (1875)<\/li>\n<li>Charles Francis Himes, <a href=\"http:\/\/chronicles.dickinson.edu\/histories\/himes\/\">A Sketch of Dickinson College<\/a> (1879)<\/li>\n<li>Horatio Collins King, <a href=\"https:\/\/books.google.com\/books?id=SkMyAAAAYAAJ&amp;pg=PP1#v=onepage&amp;q&amp;f=false\">History of Dickinson College<\/a> (1897)<\/li>\n<li>Robert McAlarney, <a href=\"http:\/\/archives.dickinson.edu\/sites\/all\/files\/files_document\/I-Original-1904-2_0.pdf\">Address on the History of West College<\/a> (1904)<\/li>\n<li>Edward W.
