Unites evangelicals The American Association of Evan- gelical Schools united Evangel with other evangelical schools across the United States in the areas of school activities, academic programs, teacher evaluations, student government affairs, and adminis- trative policy. A nation-wide Evangelical Student Congress was held for any evan- gelical school to express its opinion on social and political views from a Christ- ian viewpoint. Dr. William Menzies, head of the De- partment of Biblical Studies, and Dr. Thurman Vanzant, associate professor of psychology, were the faculty sponsors. There were no standing officers in Evangel's branch of AAES as all mem- bers worked together in researching, sending, and receiving information. Dan Franklin served as national vicepresident.
