Beginning in the fall of 1923 with very limited course offerings on the graduate level and witha teaching staff that was at an ab- solute minimum in numbers, Asbury Theo- logical Seminary has developed until today her curriculur offerings compare favorably with those of leading seminaries in the land and the number of her faculty totals eighteen well qualified men and women. Additions are con- tinually being made to the teaching staff from the ranks of men who hold degrees from the great universities of the day. And these are men who have a vital experience of God and whose major concern is that their students shal acquire not only a well rounded theological training but also a rich and satisfying exper- ience of Christ as Savior and Lord. And what of the future for this seminary ? The files in the registrar's office indicate that large numbers of serious minded, God- called young men and women are looking toward Asbury fortheir training. Students from other lands in large numbers are on the waiting list to be admitted as rapidly as scholarships can be provided for them. Facts like these presage a bright future of service to be ren- dered and a distinctive training to be given. PtAhs LUCILLE GRAVES Secretary to the Dean 11 Plans are shaping up at the present time for further enlargement in curricular offerings which will demand the addition of a still larger staff. A combination program of Chris- tian Education and Church Music is in the drafting stage. A department of Missions with a fully qualified professor is in the plans for the very near future. Definite training in Evan- gelism, one of the pressing needs of the hour, is being given consideration by the adminis- tration. And so Asbury continues to serve, continues to realize in large measure something of the purposing and dreams of its founders -- the training of a well educated, Spirit-filled ministry. The future of this seminary is as bright as are the promises and the power of God. May He grant to all of us, faculty, student body, administration, alumni, the total constituency, a confidence in Himand a wisdom and love born of grace which shall make possible a continuing realization of God's best.
