President Ross Debt Liquidation Drive .... For many years, our college has been plagued by a debt, rising and lowering with the fortunes of the time, but eventually amounting to $144,000 by June, 1956. A little over a year ago, the Board of Trustees voted unanimously to stage the Debt Liquidation Drive in an effort to wipe our these obligations by I960. As the L ' Ami goes to press, the total cash and pledges have risen to $120,000. The several segments of our constituency have been canvassed in the inter- ests of the Campaign over the last sixteen months, with major commitments coming in from the Alumni Association and the classes graduating over many years, the Friends Church itself, the general public, corporations and foundations, the City of Newberg, and members of the Board. A most phenomenal development is that by Newberg citizens themselves in their eager response to the drive and their willingness to go all-out to help the college achieve regional accreditation. We are thankful to God for these blessings which have come to us as an institution during the school year. An entire series of progressive developments may be envisioned to come about as a result of the successful culmination of the Campaign: possible accreditation, larger enrollment, major building projects, including dorm- itories, library, additional teaching and laboratory space, auditorium and chapel, music hall and fine arts gallery, housing for married students and faculty, expanded athletic facilities, and educational and cultural advantages not presently offered.
