Seventy colleges and universities in the South give the award.<\/p>\n<p>Algernon Sydney Sullivan was an Indiana lawyer who built a successful practice in New York City in the 19th century. Sullivan was deeply interested in humanitarian service and also in the American South. He was the first president of the New York Southern Society. To honor Sullivan\u2019s life and service, the society began giving the award in 1925. Since the 1930s, the awarding institution has been the Algernon Sydney Sullivan Foundation, created by Sullivan\u2019s son, George.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Hollins recipients of the Algernon Sydney Sullivan Award<\/strong><\/h3>\n<h3>1952<\/h3>\n<p>Lucy Lunn Marshall \u201952<br \/>\nEstes Cocke, vice president and treasurer<\/p>\n<h3>1953<\/h3>\n<p>Margaret Melville Wood Doss \u201953<br \/>\nMary Williamson, class of 1897, English faculty<\/p>\n<h3>1954<\/h3>\n<p>Marion Lunsford Doss \u201954<br \/>\nSamuel H.
