VALUE DF THE SEMINARY Every year during the month of June newspapers and magazines carry editorials appraising the significance of the growing number of graduates which educational institutions turn out at that time. Northwestern, of course, contributes to the number. Some editorial writers will wonder if after all we are not over-stressing the value of education in a world where every¬ body cannot be leaders; others will compare the value of theoretical knowl¬ edge from college with the value of four years actual experience in busi¬ ness. Whatever their conclusions regarding the value of education in secular life, one fact will remain: As preparation for religious work, educa¬ tion is of paramount importance. Minimizing the importance of education in secular life does not lessen the growing percentage of educated people in our country today. If religious workers such as pastors and evangelists are to maintain positions of leader¬ ship, they too must fall in line with the trend, for people will not listen long to one who obviously knows less than they. There was a time when the pastor was almost invariably the best educated man in the community. In these days of mass-production universities, this condition too frequently has ceased to exist. Other men, trained by modernistic and materialistic univer¬ sities, are becoming the people of influence in their communities, and their numbers continue to grow. In view of these conditions, leaders of the Northwestern Bible School and Northwestern Evangelical Seminary are to be complimented on the way they are meeting the need of the day by demanding higher scholarship from their students and by emphasizing more and more the advantages of education in religious work. Particularly commendable is Dr. Riley ' s present drive to develop the Northwestern Seminary. Because it has given the Bible the most prominent part of its curriculum, the school, we believe, has heretofore provided its graduates with a training more valuable than that provided by other institutions which emphasize other subjects. Before long, it will be second to none in all departments, and thus far surpass all others in the total value of its Bible-emphasized curriculum. Accordingly, Northwestern feels no need of apologizing for continuing to send out graduates into a world where some feel there is no need of more graduates. Instead, it urges on the members of the present Senior class of the Bible School that where possible they continue their training in the seminary, and on the seminary graduates that they continue in graduate or college work. Also it ’invites college graduates who are considering entering a seminary to weigh the value of what Northwestern has to offer. Its curriculum includes the finest Bible course to be found anywhere (with the additional advantage that it is fundamental) and thorough supplementary courses in defense and application of the Word.
