COUNCILING OUR PRESIDENT OUR TASK Olivet Nazarene College is today the largest insti- tution of learning in the Church of the Nazarene. Be- cause of that fact, in a certain sense, it must set the pattern for the entire denomination. It must chart the course in adjusting a campus of twelve hundred stu- dents to the ideals and vision of our beloved church. Olivet is not only a Liberal Arts College, it is a Holiness College. Education with a Christian Pur- pose is its motto and it sets forth the clear-cut func- tion which it performs. The centrality and essentiality of its Christian purpose is constantly kept in mind by the Administration, Faculty, Board of Trustees and Student Body. Our institutional goals recognize that our college is an institution of the Church of the Nazarene. While students of twenty denominations and more are in attendance this year, the college underscores as of paramount importance the fundamental beliefs, prin- ciples, and emphasis of the Church of the Nazarene. The college seeks to provide a well rounded Liberal Arts education in an atmosphere of Christian culture. The Liberal Arts enrollment continues to grow. As an illustration of that point, our graduating class this year is tlie largest in the history of the college. Olivet Nazarene College nuist continue its clear vision of its primary responsibility to God, the Church and Nazarene Youth. It must seek first the Kingdom of Cod, knowing tliat all material, cultural, and spiritual blessings will be added in the Will of God to our esteemed college. HAROLD W. President REED, A.B., M.S., Th.D.
