Year of closing

edit

I'm having trouble finding any sources stating when the college closed. Any help would be appreciated. The latest reference I've found is in this directory from 1896. -Kzirkel (talk) 18:19, 26 January 2016 (UTC)Reply

The book "Bryant: the First 125 Years" mentions on page 23 that Scholfields was still going "in the last few years before World War I". Johnson and Wales and the Rhode Island Commercial School were two other schools at the time. In 1916, Bryant merged with the RI Commercial School. I am guessing Bryant also bought out Scholfield's, but this is not explicitly mentioned in the source. -Kzirkel (talk) 20:19, 2 March 2017 (UTC)Reply
