P BUFFALO % dL J: A Personal Message from Our President TIN ITILLIGAN COLLEGE is an undenominational Christian institution, organ- I V I ized for the purpose of enriching the world ' s life by sending out students who have not only careful scholastic training and learning, but also sincere forceful Christian purposes. Having accepted the slogan of President Hopwood, ' Christian Education, the hope of the world ' , and believing that the small college is a vital agency in building up the highest type of manhood and womanhood, Milligan College seeks to equip men and women for maximum good. Milligan College has cause for pride and gratitude in the splendid family she has given to service in all honorable fields. To think of our alumni and old students is to thank God that they not only have brought honor, high ideals, and a consciousness of civic righteousness, but also that they have entered into high positions of leadership and power in community, state, and national life. We think, too, of the lengthening line of students who, in the providence of God, will pass through our portals in the years to com e. We shall steadfastly hold to the ideal that Christian culture is of greater value than intellectual attainment. We shall, when the drift seems away from it, call our students always to the sincere, sacred things — belief in the Bible, faith in the deity of Jesus, and realization of the necessity of righteous living. The College has an ideal location; its property and equipment are worth over $600,000 with no current indebtedness. The buildings are surrounded by a campus made beautiful by fountains, drives, walks, grass, shrubbery and flowers. Milligan College is generously supported by men and women of strong Christian character who are interested in the Appalachian section of America, which section has an exceptionally strong appeal to those who have faith in the early Anglo-Saxon stock of our country. Mrs. MacLean, one of the trustees, truly says, ' In my opinion, the preser- vation of our American ideals and the safety of this nation, as conceived by our fathers, will be safeguarded by the Anglo-Saxon people of the Southern Appalachian section. We can do no greater work than to make it possible for them to secure a Christian education that they may be fitted to serve our America as they alone may be fitted to do. ' Here into our college halls, upon our attractive campus, and into our family life, a welcome awaits the student of vision — the seeker of the higher things of life.
