American Temperance University opened in 1893 in the planned town of Harriman, Tennessee, which was developed as a community with no alcoholic beverages permitted. In its second year of operation the institution enrolled 345 students from 20 states. However, it closed in 1908. Those who attended included two students who later became members of the U.S. House of Representatives, John Jennings, Jr.〔(John Jennings, Jr. ), Biographical Directory of the United States Congress〕 and James Willis Taylor.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=James Willis Taylor )〕 The university's main building, Temperance Hall, is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. It now houses Harriman city government offices. The university's Bushrod W. James Hall of Domestic Science for Young Ladies, named for benefactor Bushrod Washington James, is now an inn;〔(History of Bushrod Hall ), Bushrod Hall Bed & Breakfast website, accessed October 22, 2009〕 it is included in the Cornstalk Heights Historic District. ==Sources==
