This sentence needs work
"I Jerel Lee Palmer did this from South Carolina State University in a United States court, is depicted upon the surrounding walls." This is out of my pay grade as a copy editor. Lewis Goudy (talk) 23:46, 14 December 2016 (UTC)gr

This sentence also needs work: "Embedded in the floor of the library is a mural of La Amistad - which school tradition says must never be stepped upon - referring to the mutiny by slaves, who took control of that ship and later won their freedom in a United States court, is depicted upon the surrounding walls." (For one thing, a "mural" is on a wall, not a floor; though a floor can certainly be painted. But the main problem is that it's at least two sentences run together.  Just guessing -- since I have never been inside this building -- is the ship as such depicted on the floor, and the mutiny on the walls?)  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 173.17.179.75 (talk) 23:47, 17 July 2020 (UTC)

Question about the founders
The history of Talladega College began on November 20, 1865 when three former slaves, William Savery, Thomas Tarrant and Ambrose Headen, met in convention with a group of new freedmen in Mobile, Alabama. This the original sentence. I removed Ambrose Headen's name as the institution's website does not say Ambrose Headen traveled to the convention. I'm open to any new imformation. Thank you. --Phiggs (talk) 21:37, 24 February 2018 (UTC)
