The Horace Williams Philosophical Society was organized in June 1943 by professors Francis Bradshaw and C. P. Russell, University of North Carolina Controller Claude Teague, and Dr. Otho B. Ross of Charlotte, N.C. The objectives of the Society were to commemorate and publicize the life and work of Henry Horace Williams (1858-1940), noted University of North Carolina Professor of Philosophy, 1890-1940. The Society published works on Williams's life and philosophy of teaching and invited noted philosophers to address its members at annual meetings held during the University of North Carolina commencement week.
