Exhibit chronicles history of WSSU
The Diggs Gallery at Winston
Salem State University is commem
orating the university's first 100
years with a new exhibition, "Bear
ing the Test: A Historical Exhibition
Celebrating WSSU's Centennial,"
Sept. 24 ? Dec. 12, 1992.
Photographs, documents and
other memorabilia trace the found
ing of Slater Industrial Academy in
1892, by Dr. Simon Green Atkins,
to the present-day WSSU.
The public is invited to the
opening reception on Thursday
September 24, from 5-8 p.m. The
hosts for the evening are Chancellor
Cleon F. Thompson Jr. and his wife
Edwina White Thompson. Local
artist James Huff will also be pre
sent for a signing of his limited edi
tion Centennial Poster commis
sioned by the WSSU National
Alumni Association.
Included in the exhibition are
the original campus bell, a model of
the university's first building, furni
ture for Dr. Atkins's personal collec
tion, and academic regalia worn by
him and each of the succeeding
presidents and chancellors.
"Bearing the Test" was coined
by Dr. Atkins in an early letter to
the U.S. Commissioner of Educa
tion concerning education at Slater
Industrial Academy.
The letter reads: "We are mak
ing special efforts to evaluate the
standard of our school all along the
line. I am convinced that the teach
ing, forces of my race must be ele
vated, and I think it is the duty of
our higher institutions to make this
demand. We are determined that
every student who comes out with
our stamp upon him shall bear the
test and shall by all means add to
the moral arid intellectual power of
the race."
Concurrent with the Centennial
exhibit is "Connections," an exhibit
of works by the university's art fac
ulty, alumni, and Diggs Gallery
board members. *
The curators are Kathy
Williams, Mackey Bane and Mitzi
Shewmake, the former director of'
the gallery and a retired WSSU art
professor.
Also on display is the universi
ty's time capsule, which will be
buried on Dec. 6 to preserve arti
facts and documents from the year
long Centennial celebration.
The Diggs Gallery is open
Tuesdays through Saturdays from
11 a.m. to 5 p.m. Admission is free.
For more information call the
gallery at 750-2458.
