With A Good Faculty Oklahoma Baptist University emphasizes the liberal arts in an atmosphere of Christian culture. OBU interprets its role as developing the whole manfhelping each student reach his potential intellectually, physically, and spiritually. Guiding terms in OBU's plans for the future are academic excellence and Wfhe Habitual Vision of Greatnessf' An important part of achieving this vision is quality instruction, the building of an outstanding faculty. OBU believes that a good school points to excellence with a good faculty. An advantageous student-faculty ratio at OBU provides for the actual involvement of student and teacher in intel- lectual issues. Students receive more personal attention at OBU because of smaller. less formal, classes. This face-to face encounter stimulates both student and teacher to greater heights of learning. The OBU faculty is well-qualified, with a high percentage of advanced degrees and broad and varied backgrounds in study at the nation's 'top universities and in professional work. In addition, the OBU faculty member believes that Christian education is important and distinct. This dedicated faculty has sincere interest in students and their achievements. E t if w Y , , , , , W e - V: ,. Faculty mcmlmers prepare for the year in several meetings such as this one under the direction of Acting President Evans T. Mosc- ley.

OBU Find Academic Experiments Important Another important feature in a university's search for excellence is its willingness to experiment, to explore new programs, to serve special purposes. Experimentation is es- sential to progress, and OBU has been flexible in its search for better educational plans and techniques. Foremost among 0liU's efforts has been the European Study Program. Study abroad has emerged as one of the great contributors to liberal arts education, and OBU has several years experience in overseas programs. 0Blf,s 1965 tour, lasting 10 weeks. visited 11 countries and covered more than 12.000 miles. Four weeks were spent on the con- tinent, four weeks in residence at Spurgeonis College in London, and two weeks touring England and Scotland. The study program has been successful in making the history and culture of the western world more meaningful for OBU students. And the opportunity to earn 9 to 12 hours credit in courses in government, history, literature, art, and music, while seeing the scenic spots of the world has proved quite popular. This is one of the experiments contributing to the achievement of wllhe Habitual Vision of Greatness? , 'Y .ag if 39 Ol3U's European Study Tour members prepare to leave for a sum- mer of travel and study. European Study Tour members view the Villa d'Este Renaissance Carden, popularly called the Tivoli Gardens located outside of Rome.
