PRESIDENT JOHN OWEN GROSS IN February, 192.9, when Dr. John Owen Gross was inaugurated president to succeed Dr. E. T. Franklin, harder days than anyone suspected were ahead. Nevertheless, under President Gross ' admin- istration the enrollment has been almost doubled, the faculty and staff have been correspondingly enlarged, the campus has been ex- tended to include greatly needed land and buildings, and the college has been admitted into the Southern Intercollegiate Athletic Asso- ciation. Most significant of all, President Gross has achieved for Union College full accreditation in the Southern Association of Colleges and Secondary Schools. It is to her present president, accord- ingly, that Union largely owes the maintaining and advancing of her honored place in the high field of Christian education.

Through it all he succeeded in giving the college a good start and in inspiring the leaders who followed him in the work of the college after his death in January, 1897.
