College affiliated with the Episcopal Church and the United Negro College Fund. Voorhees

College is fully accredited by the Commission on Colleges of the Southern Association of

Colleges and Schools to award Bachelor's Degrees.

History: Founded in 1897 by Elizabeth Evelyn Wright-Menafee, Voorhees College’s mission

always has been to offer all students a quality comprehensive general education, coupled with

professional education, in a value-centered liberal arts tradition. In addition, Voorhees College

was the first Historically Black College and University in South Carolina accredited by the

Commission on Colleges of the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools.

Our President: Dr. W. Franklin Evans, the 9th

President of Voorhees College, has been in the

education arena over 25 years. Dr. Evans chose a career in higher education because he wanted to

effect change in the education of underrepresented, potentially-gifted individuals by training those

who eventually educate them.

Our Community: Voorhees College, which is designated as a Historic District in South Carolina,

consists of 342 acres in Bamberg County in the city of Denmark. Voorhees is about 50 miles south

campus. Degrees in Criminal Justice and Organizational Management are also offered at the

Denmark site for non-traditional students.

Voorhees offers a training program in Cyber Security Education and has a special partnership with

the National Nuclear Security Administration that lets students participate in Cyber Security

summer internships at various locations across the United States.

Intercollegiate Sports: The Voorhees College Tigers are in the Gulf Coast Athletic Conference.

The Tigers compete in men baseball, women softball, men and women’s basketball, men and

women’s track and field, and men and women’s cross country.

Voorhees College Quality Enhancement Plan (QEP)

The Voorhees College’s Quality Enhancement Plan’s goal is to improve students’ writing

skills. The specific theme is “Journeying Through College Writing: From Thought to Expression.”

In the Executive Summary, the College states that, over a five-year period, it will implement the

QEP to improve students’ writing skills by infusing more intensive writing exercises in

composition courses within the Division of General Studies. The specific student-learning

outcomes are as follows: (1) Students will demonstrate proficiency in writing narrative,

expository, and argumentative essays, as well as apply the principles of research in a research

paper; (2) Students will demonstrate proficiency in using the conventions of punctuation and

mechanics; and (3) Students will demonstrate a reduction in writing anxiety.
