Description
An uncle of John Bard, McVickar was a brilliant teacher at Columbia, and later the superintendent of the Society for the Promotion of Religion and Learning. In this capacity, he was concerned with the need for a new college to prepare young men for the ministry, a goal eventually realized through the resources and energy of the Bards and other devout philanthropists.
