'I Sevierville, Tennessee provided a new location for the Bible Training School as the college outgrew facilities for the third time since its beginning. The col- lege relocated in 1938 to property purchased from the Murphy Collegiate Institute in Sevierville. The Church of God authorized the Bible Training School to expand to a junior college. Possibly this institution was one of the first Pentecostal col- leges, maybe even the second one ever founded. VINDAGUA originated in 1941-1942 as the student body decided to compile a yearbook. The students selected the Latin word Vindagau meaning to furnish with a window or windows iLiving Webster Encyclopedia Dictio- naryl. Printers somehow misspelled the word and the first annual carried the name Vindagua. Tradition has pre- vailed over the years-even to the 40th anniversary of the VINDAGUA. 1 X R al xi ..
