5b« 5ouHanb THE CHRISTIAN COLLEGE The Christian College is more than an educational institution with a religious bias. The training given students in the Christian College should give the student more than a knowledge of scientific facts or mathematical formulae. It must give more than a perspective of history, or an appreciation of literature. In a sense peculiarly characteristic, such a college must combine the development of intellect, industry, and integrity. The intellectual or scholastic standards maintained must be not merely the equivalent of those maintained in public institutions. The example of the divine Leader of the Christian church, who even as a youthful prodigy excited the wonder of the intellectual leaders of his day, who in his ministry spoke three languages, who read accurately and in- timately the lives of his hearers, and ministered to them in so masterful a manner that his words of blessing and benediction excited the comment, never man spake like this man, should ever be a stimulus to the highest of intellectual attainment in the schools that bear his name. The example of the Carpenter of Nazareth has dignified for all time the manual trades. In elevating the conception of mankind concerning the dignity of labor, he set also a standard of diligent and persevering application to routine duties. The measure to which a school develops in a student the capacity for intelligent self-direction, will determine the effectiveness of the training which has been imparted. While the disciplinary value of strictly intellectual activities is not to be overlooked, it should be observed that manual labor carries with it a training in initiative and dependability, and has a disciplinary value that can be obtained in no other way. Here again the Christian College may catch a vision of its mission through the study of the life and ideals of the Master Teacher. But the greatest function of the Christian College lies in giving a training in integrity — in character — to its students. In an age that is peculiarly characterized by but little else than the two motives of making a living and finding amusement, it becomes increasingly apparent that the Christian College has a large service to perform. By casting the plastic lives of its students in the mould of Christian principles, ideals and objec- tives, there will be sent on into the world men and women who meet the appeal of the inspired writer who called for men who will not be bought or sold; men who in their inmost souls are true and honest; men who do not fear to call sin by its right name; men whose conscience is as true to duty as the needle to the pole; men who will stand for right though the heavens fall. y MM zte.
