Extractions: History of Southeastern University Over a century ago, the antecedent of Southeastern University arose in the Nation's Capital. It was in 1879 following a great influx of newcomers to Washington that the Young Men's Christian Association of the District of Columbia began to offer classes in French, mathematics, general education, religion, and business. As the current president, Dr. Charlene Drew Jarvis, often points out in speeches around the nation, the guiding purpose of the founders was to afford young men a practical education. Then, as now, Southeastern was dedicated to the twin principles of education for citizenship and education for a life's career. In 1907 the Washington School of Accountancy was added to the university, creating a specialty which continues to this day. And, in 1923, the institution was incorporated by the city government as the Southeastern University of the Young Men's Christian Association of the District of Columbia. A major step forward was taken when, on August 19, 1937, an Act of Congress was approved declaring the name of the institution to be "Southeastern University" and providing a federal charter for the university. The Congress declared that the university was to be governed by a board of trustees composed of prominent individuals. It also called for a wide range of courses, schools and degrees. This official charter has since been amended twice by the Congress first, on October 10, 1966, and again on March 29, 1976. Over the course of the century, many courses and schools were added: liberal arts, business administration, transportation studies, and a law school, among others. Today, the strength of the university academically rests upon the following areas: computer science and computer information systems; accounting and taxation; mathematics; liberal studies; and business management and marketing. Undergraduate degrees are offered in accounting, business management, general studies, marketing, computer science, information systems management, finance, banking, and public administration. Graduate courses are offered in accounting and taxation; business management and marketing, computer science; computer information systems; mathematics; finance and banking; economics; public administration, and communication arts.
