Excerpt from A Register of the Officers and Students of the University of Alabama, 1831 1901 The main feature of the work being the compilation of the record of the students, the names only Of the Officers and their time of service and the names of recipients of honorary degrees and dates Of the degrees are given. Mr. Alto Velo Lee, Jr., Fellow and Graduate Student, 1898-99, and Mr. William Hubbard White, Fellow and Graduate Student, 1899-1900, assisted me in compiling and revising the lists Of names. During the summer vacation of 1900, Mr. Griffin Lam kin, private secretary of the President, assisted in correspondence and in the recording of statistics Of Part II. Miss Helen Jones has made a large part of the final typewritten copy for the press. To these helpers I extend my thanks for their hearty cooperation, interest and zeal in the work. With much pleasure do I acknowledge my indebtedness and thanks to Dr. William S. Wyman for his assistance. From the beginning to the end he has ever taken a deep interest in the progress of the work. His long connection with the University and his remarkable memory of names and family relationships in Alabama enabled him to give me many facts, and, but for valuable clues and suggestions constantly furnished by him, the facts concerning hundreds of the older students especially would probably not have been found. I also sincerely thank the many Alumni and other friends every where who have so kindly and diligently exerted themselves in gathering information about former students. Without this generous aid a full record could not have been compiled. It would have given me great pleasure to publish a list of the names of all who have helped me in this way, but the number of these is so great that the publication of their names would far exceed the necessary limitations Of this Preface.

The University of Alabama (UA) is one of the most prominent universities in the US. Volume One of this series explored UA’s birth, formative years, its burning by Union soldiers, and its rebirth in 1871. Volume Two noted the adolescent years of the school, rebellion by the students against the military system of government, the rise of a student culture via the admission of women, and a nascent men’s sports program. This third volume explores rising enrollment and a new style of student governance. The book investigates how UA dealt with student smoking, cursing, and hazing. It covers how UA became nationally respected academically, the rise of a successful sports program, the first use of the phrase “Crimson Tide,” the history of the Million Dollar Band and how “Yea, Alabama” became the school fight song, the UA/Auburn rift, and the UA response to WWI and to the women’s rights movement.
The University of Alabama (UA) is one of the most prominent and fascinating universities in the United States. Volume One of this series explored UA’s 1819 birth, its formative years, its burning by Union soldiers, and its subsequent rebirth in 1871. Volume Two introduces a number of important elements into the ongoing narrative, including: the University’s continual hassle with the radical state government through 1877; a span of only seven years wherein three UA presidents either die in office or in Tuscaloosa shortly after resigning, creating a terrible period of psychological mourning that affected everyone associated with the University; the strict admission of women students, and the effect of this on the faculty, administration, and the cadets; and the establishment of student-written works including a journal, a newspaper, and a yearbook. The volume also looks at the history of unofficial student sports dating from the 1870s and the official birth in 1892 of a school-sanctioned athletic program for football and baseball, the germ of what would eventually be named the Crimson Tide, including the first twelve rocky years of the program. It also explores the successful 1900 Student Rebellion against the military style of student government, a rebellion that would rock the very soul of the school, involving the state press, the legislature, the governor, the alumni, and the citizens of Alabama, and which witnessed the fall of the commandant and eventually of the president, thus wrenching the students out of their fluctuating but often sorrowful psychological state of mind into an ever-evolving psychology and experience of success.
