Established in 1865 Virginia Union University gave newly emancipated slaves an opportunity for education for establishing a community and for gaining economic political and social advancement. The University is the result of a merger among four historic institutions : Richmond Theological Seminary Wayland Seminary Hartshorn Memorial and Storer College. Richmond Theological Seminary held its first classes at Lumpkins Jail a former holding cell for runaway slaves. The Wayland Seminary was founded in 1865 by the American Baptist Home Mission Society in Washington DC. Two years later Storer College was founded in West Virginia and Hartshorn Memorial College opened its doors in 1883 as the first college for African American women in the country. After operating independently for three decades these notable seminaries joined forces to form Virginia Union University in 1899. Hartshorn Memorial and Storer Colleges would eventually join this Union in 1932 and 1964 respectively.
