Fixing as their goal the creation of an educational institution on an equal standing with all others, Dr. John A. Morrison, president, and Dr. Russell Olt, dean, far back in 1925 began building toward the event which, on March 27, 1946, culminated in Anderson College’s being granted membership in the North Central Association of Uni¬ versities, Colleges and Secondary Schools. From that tiny beginning late in the fall of 1917 when Anderson Bible Training School, with a faculty of six and a student body of sixty-five, opened its doors, un¬ sung and unnoticed, in the world of education, there has grown an institution of more than six hundred students for 1945-46, a faculty ranking with the best in Indiana, and a curriculum equal, subject by subject, credit hour by credit hour, with the courses of study in the 320 other recognized colleges that are members of the Association which covers twenty states. President Morrison p ven as tEe stu dent body and faculty observed the great occasion in proper manner, President Morrison and Dean Olt were announcing, ' It has been a hard job getting where we are, and it is going to be a far harder one to stay there.’’ The load they had carried was heavy and, to meet the bigger demands of the future, they asked for the help of all. Ahead, as Dr. Morrison told those assembled, the day following recognition of the College, is to come a graduate school of religious education, dormitories, library and science buildings, chapel, music hall and a plant for physical education; with these, an enlarged faculty, classroom space and equipment to meet the growing student needs, an enlarged vision and program. Built greatly by the work of two men, Anderson College looks ahead. Dean Olt
