Jifimriml Sketch Because eminent men of God realized the importance of providing in the heart of the North a Christian training school, North Central Bible Institute was opened for the teaching of Gods word in the fall of 1930. The schools first home was in the then newly erected Minneapolis Gospel Taber- nacle. F rom all walks of life, twenty-six young people came to form the 'pioneer class of the school. The girls were placed in homes where they . could work for their board and room, and the boys were located by the dean of men in rooms or apartments near the school. Among these twenty- six students was one of the present faculty members, Rev. Earl B. Adamson, who was elected as the Student Council president, at the first organization of the class.
