[QUOTE=BlueNYC2;1578579]just some random facts i know...

Samford was originally established as Howard College, and when they started to grant master's they changed it to Samford because there was already a Howard University in DC.



Samford was a big benefactor for Howard College and they changed to his name for all of the money he gave them.

Duke was founded with money from a tobacco family and cannot think of the name or company at the moment.
