BP05 – Augustus Baldwin Longstreet (1840-1848)
Augustus Baldwin Longstreet, a Yale-educated lawyer, a planter, an editor, a judge, and the author of Georgia Scenes, became the second president of Emory College. Longstreet elevated Emory’s profile by his own fame as an essayist and storyteller; he succeeded marvelously in enlarging the profile of the young college.

The Longstreet apartment is located in the Undergraduate Residential Center. This spacious two bedroom, two bath apartment is 1,147 square feet in size.
