Morrison, originally from Cabarrus County, North Carolina, enrolled at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, eventually graduating second in the class, behind future President James K. Polk.[1] After graduating, Morrison entered the ministry before being appointed as president of Davidson. Morrison taught mathematics and science courses at the college.[2] After a year as president, a typhoid epidemic swept through the area, taking two of his children.[3] Morrison would later become ill and resign from the position in 1840, eventually retiring in 1849.[1] References1. ^1 {{Cite web|url=http://www.ncpedia.org/biography/morrison-robert-hall|title=Morrison, Robert Hall {{!}} NCpedia|website=www.ncpedia.org|language=en|access-date=2017-06-30}} 2. ^{{Cite web|url=http://libraries.davidson.edu/archives/encyclopedia/robert-hall-morrison|title=Morrison, Robert Hall – Davidson College Archives & Special Collections|website=libraries.davidson.edu|language=en-US|access-date=2017-06-30}} 3. ^{{Cite web|url=http://www.meckdec.org/images/Dandelion-Summer-2017.pdf|title=Mecklenburg Historical Association Docents|last=|first=|date=|website=|archive-url=|archive-date=|dead-url=|access-date=}} External links
