    Terry, William Holt

    Reverend William Holt Terry, ‘54, D.D., was thirty-eight when he became the Dean of Students at Davidson College in 1970, the role in which he is best remembered. Originally from Durham, North Carolina, Terry earned his B.S. degree from Davidson College and his Master of Ministry from Union Presbyterian Seminary of Richmond in 1958. A man who was never truly content to finish his schooling, he later acquired his Doctor of Ministry from Union Seminary of Richmond in 1986. Prior to becoming Dean of Students, Terry served as the pastor of Davidson College Presbyterian Church, the secretary of the college’s YMCA, the school’s chaplain, and the pastor of Acme Presbyterian Church in Riegelwood, North Carolina. Will Terry’s years at Davidson as a student, staffer, and administrator saw vast changes in the institution, including coeducation, integration, the shifting spiritual landscape, and changing relationships between college administration and the student body. When he retired in 1994, former students, administrators, and friends of the college founded the William Holt Terry Scholarship in his honor, a fund which later expanded to include a fellowship component.
