Isaac S. Sullivan (Dickinson Chronicles)

Scholarship
Isaac Sullivan came to Dickinson College in Carlisle, Pennsylvania in 1857 as a student of the Grammar School from Hays’ Creek in Carroll County, Mississippi. After preparing at the school for a year, he entered Dickinson as a freshman in 1858. Sullivan was a member of the Belles Lettres Literary Society as well as the Phi Kappa Psi fraternity. He did not receive his degree as he retired from the College after the spring semester of 1860.

At the outbreak of the Civil War, Sullivan joined the Confederate States Army, eventually attaining the rank of major. He was killed at Atlanta in 1865.
