About Lincoln University, Pennsylvania
Lincoln University is a community of 1,739 people in Chester County, built around the college that gives it its name. In 1854 the Presbyterian minister John Miller Dickey and Sarah Emlen Cresson, his Quaker wife, founded the Ashmun Institute in Hinsonville to give African Americans a chance at higher education, which few schools then offered them. Pennsylvania chartered the school on April 29, 1854, and it became the first HBCU in the nation to award degrees.
The founders named it for Jehudi Ashmun, a religious leader and reformer, and Dickey served as its first president. In 1866, a year after President Abraham Lincoln was assassinated, the school took his name. Through the long decades of legal segregation in the South it drew gifted students from many states, and from 1854 to 1954 its graduates made up 20% of the country's African American physicians.
- Einstein on campus in 1946Horace Mann Bond, a Lincoln alumnus, came back with a doctorate in 1945 and became the school's first African American president, serving until 1957. In 1946 he brought Albert Einstein to campus, where Einstein lectured on physics and also spoke out against racism. Bond's son Julian later recalled meeting Einstein as a boy at a reception his father hosted.
- Harding's arch in 1921In June 1921, only days after the race massacre in Tulsa, Warren Harding, then president, gave Lincoln's commencement address. He urged healing and harmony, praised the school's graduates who had fought in World War I, and dedicated the Alumni Memorial Arch that still marks the entrance to campus. The student paper ranked his visit as the high point of the school's story.
- Women admitted in 1953For its hundredth anniversary, the university changed its charter in 1953 so it could grant degrees to women. Change came slowly at first, and women were only 5% of the students in 1964. By 2019 they made up 66% of the undergraduates.
- Langston Hughes's libraryThe poet Langston Hughes graduated from Lincoln in 1929. When he died in 1967 he left his personal library to the school, and the books overflowed the old Vail Memorial Library. Work on a bigger building was underway by 1970, and the Langston Hughes Memorial Library opened in 1972.
- A Medal of Honor in 1865Christian Fleetwood graduated from the school in 1860, while it was still the Ashmun Institute. Five years later, in 1865, he became the first African American to receive the Congressional Medal of Honor, and he went on to work as a pioneering editor.
