TAYLOR. CELEBRATES The centennial class. Scenes from the pageant. CENTENNIAL YEAR After one hundred years of service, Taylor University is still true to her title, the college that cares for the soul. Founded for the purpose of educating young ladies in a Christian environment, the school has become a co-educa- tional college with an excellent academic curriculum and many beneficial extra-curricular organizations. It is a college which offers adequate training for life with an emphasis upon Christian principles. Through the grace of God, the school has survived over a century and now is steadily progressing. Full accreditation by the North Cen- tral Association on March 26, 1947, was a marked stepping stone in the advancement of the university at the dawn of a new century. Looking forward to many more years of ministry as an effective Christian college, Taylor Uni- versity praises God for the blessings of the first one hundred years of service. 12
