  TN Encyclopedia: LEMOYNE OWEN COLLEGE
Memphis's Lemoyne Owen College opened its doors in 1871 as LeMoyne Normal and Commercial School, but it traces its ancestry to the schools for ex-slaves organized by members of the American Missionary Association (AMA) during and after the Civil War.
LeMoyne became a junior college in 1924, but the high school division continued until 1934, when the State of Tennessee chartered the school as LeMoyne College, a four-year institution granting the bachelor's degree.
The college maintains its ties with the Tennessee Baptist Convention and the United Church of Christ.

 LeMoyne-Owen College - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The merger of LeMoyne College and Owen College in 1968 joined two institutions, which had rich traditions as private, church-related colleges that have historically served Black students, founded and developed to provide higher education to students in the Mid-South area.
LeMoyne Normal and Commercial School opened officially in 1871, but it actually began in 1862 when the American Missionary Association sent Lucinda Humphrey to open an elementary school for freedmen and runaway slaves to Camp Shiloh soon after the occupation of Memphis by federal troops under General Ulysses S. Grant.
LeMoyne developed rapidly; it became a junior college in 1924 and a four-year college in 1930, chartered by the State of Tennessee just four years later.

LeMoyne is a Jesuit institution, and Jesuit schoolteachers were until recently known for being rather free with ferule and switch.
Perhaps this is a case of the excessive piety of the converted, the Jesuits of LeMoyne having been converted from the original stern precepts of their society to the doctrines of universal niceness and "sensitivity" in which our poor culture is now awash.

 345 NLRB No. 93; 9/30/05; Lemoyne-Owen College; 26-CA-20953
  The College traces its roots to 1862 and is a “historically fl college.”  The College is overseen by a board of trustees.
Elmira College, 309 NLRB 842 (1992), the Board found that curricular affairs committee recommendations were effective where, once approved by faculty, they were passed on to the college president for final approval, and during a 4-year period, all recommendations were approved.
The dissent acknowledges that the faculty handbook may imbue the faculty, including faculty committees and the faculty assembly, with authority over the College’s academic decisions, but the dissent concludes that the evidence is not sufficiently “clear” to prove that the faculty actually exercises this authority.
