Trevecca Nazarene University - Darda Yearbook (Nashville, TN)

resident Trevecca ' s past and present are foundations upon which to build its future. The records show that Trevecca College has sent out seventy missionaries, which indicates that Trevecca College has been inspiring and training students for the mission field. Today, Trevecca has first place among Nazarene Colleges in the percent- age of students planning to go into full-time Christian work. The major goal of Trevecca College in the future should be to serve the Church of the Nazarene, And that service depends upon three major qualities, namely: size, scholarship, and spirituality. To the extent that a college can grow in size and continue to hold high the standards of scholarship and spirituality, its service can be in- creased. Therefore, the future of Trevecca College should be that it shall grow larger and larger. As to scholarship, in the future we should feel the responsibility to raise the standards of scholarship as the years go on. Young people who have clean minds and pure hearts should honor God by convincing the world that those who go to a Holiness college are better prepared to make intellectual advancement than those who go to other colleges. Last, but not least, spirituality should increase in Trevecca College as the years come and go. We can grow in size and increase in scholarship, but unless we grow in spiritual power, we will fail to be able to render the service the Church of the Nazarene really expects of us.

The administrative offices and the high school classrooms are located in this building. Hardy Hall, one of the dormitories for men, is a large concrete block building of three stories. Tidwell Hall, dormitory for men, is a three-story building of native stone, located across Lester Avenue from Hardy Hall. The President ' s home is located on Hart Street facing these other three buildings. The McClurkan Memorial Hall houses the library, the main auditorium, and several spacious class- rooms. The Elementary Training School, a frame building, is located on the south campus. An Apartment house of stone construction is located on the oval drive which surrounds the Administra- tion Building. The College Hill Church has erected a church building at the intersection of Hart Street and Lester Avenue. The Fine Arts Building is under construction and it is the thrill of every student to watch daily its progress. The students, faculty and alumni are looking for a greater T.N.C. campus in future years. The Board of Trustees has approved a plan whereby a continuous program of improvements can be made.
