Present president and acting chairman of the faculty is Chemistry Professor Frederick Raymond Georgia.

Black Mountain College will emphasize Art, allow its students wide freedom in choosing courses, studying in seminars and graduating when they feel ready. Before graduating they must pass an examination in their special field...
