Profile 0 1 The College Atlanta Christian College is a small residential institution locat- ed in the city of East Point, Georgia. With a small student body of nearly 200 students, it moves into its 48th year with vigor and optimism. A student who comes to Atlanta Christian College joins a great tradition of Christian education and evangelism. What began as 6 students in one small wooden structure has grown into a small but energetic college. Students are housed and taught in handsome brick build- ings. But the educational and evangelism goals of the past are still the goals of the future. 2 o The College h The college has experienced steady growth under the leader- ship of George BonDurant t1957-1947i, Orvel Crowder t1947-1955i, James Redmon t1955-1979i, Paul Carrier t1979-1984i. James Donovan became the fifth president of ACC when he was inaugurated in 1984. E The campus is set in a :3 rolling landscape among towering pines, its horizon blending the grace of' traditional Southern ar- chitecture with the modem skyline of Atlanta. An Atlanta Christian student may choose from several degree concentra- tions which includes a Bible major. All faculty members are Christians who believe and teach that the Bible is the inspired Word of God and that Jesus Christ is the Son of God. The college is accreditated by the American Association of Bible Colleges. The Community and the college brings benefits and provides students with a healthy place in which to live and to pursue an education. East Point's residences, churches, clubs, and officials are interested in ACC and strongly support various campus activities. The large metropolitan area provides students with excellent opportunities for employment in order to achieve their education. There are many churches in the city and state that afford students a place of worship and service. Atlanta Christian College combines the advantages of a iismall college atmosphere of friendliness and individuality with the assets offered from the neamess to the metropolitan city of Atlanta, Georgia. The college draws its richly mixed and diverse student body from all parts of the nation and the world, each sharing in the college experience. Among the various attractions East Point, Georgia is the location of Atlanta Christian College. Over the past 48 years the college and the town have grown together. The small town atmosphere of this north central Georgia town provides an excellent environment for the growth of the college. The spirit of cooperation which exists between the community o u 0 I C o O O O I O O O O O O C a and services available to ACC students are theaters, restaurants, banks, bus and air transportation, hospitals, industries, recreational and entertainment centers, a great variety of shopping centers, and student oriented businesses. Atlanta Christian students are fortunate to be able to live and study in a large international city such as Atlanta. There are many large and influential universities and colleges in the area from which students may draw added knowledge in their pursuit of an education. The community always offers a challenges for those who will accept. ' EAST POINT! CITY LIMIT l The Community a 5 Academics Academic challenge is always felt in the halls of Atlanta Christian College. There is a wide variety of programs offered on the undergraduate level that affords students an opportunity to choose that which meets their particular needs. In keeping with the purpose of the college, all courses are designed to concur with Christian philosophy. Whether a person enrolls for only a few courses or completes a degree, the general objectives remain the same. Following the selection of an academic program, students are assigned advisors in keeping with the student's choice of program. A degree chart is prepared for the choice of program. Advisors will give guidance in scheduling courses, but it is the student's responsibility to see that all requirements are met. 4 o Academics The college realizes that many entering students have not decided upon a definite program so a basic group of courses has been organized into a core curriculum. This basic course introduces these students to all phases of the college curriculum and serves as a guide during the freshman and sophomore years. All four-year degree programs of the college are based upon the completion of the two-year core curriculum. The four-year degree programs, the Bachelor of Arts, B.A., and the Bachelor of Science, 8.5., require 128 semester hours of credit, of which the last 50 must be taken at Atlanta Christian. The BA. and 13.5. degree programs include all the required courses of the core curriculum and many of the same courses in the junior and senior years. A principal difference is that the B.A. requires 14 semester hours of a foreign language, and the BS. requires additional course work in the natural and social sciences. In completing the 128 semester hours, students are guided to achieve a balance of courses in general, biblical, and practical education. All students are required to complete a major in Bible and a minor in their chosen field of practical education. Practical fields of study are: Ministry, Christian Education, Youth Ministry, Music, and Missions. All programs are designed to give students a knowledge of the Bible and theology. The Faculty The faculty of Atlanta Christian College constantly keeps in mind that its general objective at the college is threefold. Each professor endeavors to provide an education which will prepare Christian youth to be of greater service to God and to their fellow men. To offer basic Bible training for those who would serve in an effective way as leaders in the church is their second objective. To provide an opportunity for Christian education to all worthy young people regardless of their financial ability is their goal. An educational program which will fulfill these objectives must give emphasis first to the spiritual; second, to the intellectual; and third, to the practical. The ultimate end for this is a program that will result in abundant Christian living and effective Christian service. Faculty members of the college believe that a Bible college must give proper emphasis to direct Bible study so that a student will be able to fill both his mind and heart with teachings of the Word of God. The faculty of ACC recognizes that they are called of God to teach and that position is one of public trust. Each of the professors serves as a trustee of the social and religious heritage of the college. Members work to guide students toward maturity so that they will be able to take their places in society as strong Christians helping others. The Faculty 0 5 Capable leadership plays a major role at Atlanta Christian College. The growth over the years has placed the college into prominent position as an institution with a dedicated purpose of educating men and women for the ministry. The good judgment and sense of fairness of the administration provides the college with an atmosphere of enthusiasm and cooperation between students 6 o The Staff and faculty. This mutual under- standing prepares students with an eagerness to meet and solve the problems they inevitably will encounter. Certainly the ability with which the members of the administration handle their jobs makes it difficult to imagine how extensive these jobs really are. President James C. Donovan is the chief executive officer of the college. He is the fifth president of Atlanta Christian College. An alumnus of ACC, Dr. Donovan received degrees from Georgia State University. He has served in the ministry as well as principal at Woodward Academy Middle School. Administration of academic affairs is in the oHice of Academic Dean.

Brian Twaddell is the Business Manager for the college. This administrative staff endeavors to uphold the primary objective of the college to be an institution of higher learning which provides an atmosphere in which students of the Word may develop for service.

It is not wisdom to be only wise, And on the inward vision Close the eyes: But it is wisdom to believe the heart. Columbus found a world, and had no chart Save one that faith deciphered in the skies; To trust the soul's invincible surmise Was all his science and his only art. Our knowledge is a torch of smoky pine That lights the pathway but one step ahead Across a void of mystery and dread. Bid, then, the tender light of faith to shine By which alone to mortal heart is led Unto the thinking of the thought devine. Santayana geniamin Scot!

To Robyn Wilkins and Vicki Bryant for their willingness to assist in any way possible; Mr. Roy McKinney for his long hours of picture taking and developing.
