[Bowling Green Business College and 
Literary Institute]History

In the fall of 1892, Henry Hardin Cherry and Thomas Crittenden Cherry opened the Bowling Green Business College and Literary Institute. Although the school was newly incorporated on May 31, 1893, the Cherry brothers regarded it as the direct successor to the Southern Normal School and Business College, established in Bowling Green in 1884 by A. W. Mell and J. Tom Williams.

With the addition of a teacher training department in 1894, the school became known as the Southern Normal School and Bowling Green Business College.
