The latest addition to the build- ings on the campus is the new home of the College Mill, which was com- pleted in 1941. The Mill is expanding so rapidly that it has already been necessary to add to the original building. Today Atlantic Union College stands firmly for the purpose of the founders of that little school of 1882 — the preparation of young people for the work of God. It has not been by might or power of men, by fine buildings or heavy endowments that this insti- tution has done its work, but quietly, steadily, under the guiding hand of God, for sixty years it has served humanity, fulfilling its mission and sending its influence to the far cor- ners of the earth. This old apple tree, the last of the original orchard, uld have given the history from the beginning until 1940. The 1942 MINUTEMAN Staff wishes to express their sincere appreciation to Miss Rowena E. Purdon for her full cooperation in making possible this presentation of the history of Atlantic Union College through the unlimited use of her book, The Story of a School. College Mill, 1941

ML •ft 8 tf tffl) to Since 1887, when Carrie Mace and Elder and Mrs. D. A. Robinson were sent to South Africa as the first foreign missionaries from this institution, the purpose for which this training school was originally founded has been conscientiously continued. At the present time, the Honor Roll of Foreign Missionaries which hangs on the chapel wall, contains 254 names of those who have gone out to the foreign mission field. Their general locations in missions, schools or hospitals are indicated on the map by small buildings. Willingly following the Master wherever He leads, they have found that real success lies only in service for others.
