An institution is but the lengthened shadow of a manf, Texas Christian University is but the lengthened shadow of Dean Colby D. Hall, retiring dean of Brite College of the Bible. A review of the last 40 years history of Texas Christian University is a parallel review of the life story of the Dean. Colby D. Hall has given himself without restraint to his God, his family, his church, his school, and his community. He has given 40 years of unselfish service to a great University which he helped to make great. He was a student-janitor of Add Ran College from 1896-99, supply pro- fessor, 1902-05, upon his graduation from Transylvania University, field representative three years, professor of Latin, 1912-14, professor of English Bible, 1914-29, professor of Church history, 18 years, Dean of Brite College of the Bible, 1914-47 C55 yearsj, Dean of Texas Christian Uni- versity 25 years, and served two one-year terms as pastor of the University Christian Church. Mrs. Colby D. Hall has shared through the years with the Dean in all of his educational and religious activities. She, son Colby D., Jr., and daughter Bita Mae, are all graduates of T. C. U. Dr. M. E. Sadler, president of Texas Christian University says of Dean Hall: As a constructive and wise counselor Dean Colby D. Hall is supreme. just as I came to work as President, our nation entered the second world war. I needed someone with whom I could talk constantly and from whom advice and counsel could be secured. I shall be eternally grateful for the help which Dean Hall has been to me during these six turbulent yearsf' During his tenure of administrative work as executive dean of the Brite College of the Bible, Dr. Colby D. Hall dreamed of and brought into reality 40 efficiency apartments for married ministerial students. Low- cost living quarters and many B. A. and B. D. degrees for preachers are the results of this f1B160,000 dream. Inestimable are the values to the min- istry and to the churches who have benefitted and will continue to bene- fit by that investment. From the first time that Dean Hall came to the University driving a horse and buggy, he has led this great church-related University in an ever expanding program designed to meet the needs of education in the age of the aeroplane and atomic energy. Colby Dixon Hall has walked hand in hand with the early Church fathers until they have become close, personal friends. He has walked with practical humanness and sensitivity to the path of sacrificial Christian serv- ice as a Christian gentleman and teacher with his students, faculty members and many friends. ew., 2.71466
