Southern College

n 1892, Professor George Colcord and his wife, Ada, started Graysville Academy in Graysville, Tennessee, where 23 students enrolled that first year.

In November 1897, the school’s name was changed to Southern Industrial School, and in 1901, it was changed again to Southern Training School.

In 1915, the women’s dorm burned. While no lives were lost, school officials decided to move, and the following year, the school board bought a piece of property called Thatcher Switch and named it Collegedale.
