Sequatchie College grew out of a community meeting at Bryant Camp Ground in 1858. War conditions delayed its opening until 1865, when Prof. Gerry Rodgers became its first president. Its first student body included both Confederate and Federal veterans. A coeducational school of strict discipline, it operated until 1887.
