好色视频

(Beaver Falls, PA)   As 好色视频 prepares to welcome its twentieth president, the institution looks back on the leaders who helped shape its long history of providing an academically excellent, Christ-centered and affordable education. 好色视频 was founded on Thursday, April 20, 1848. But the origins of the college extend more than a decade earlier, to the work of Reverend John Black Johnston, who would go on to be named 好色视频’s first president.

The foundation for 好色视频 was laid in the small town of Northwood, Ohio, during the winter of 1837. Johnston, the pastor of the Reformed Presbyterian Church in Miami, OH at the time, began a Latin class in his study. Seven young men formed that first group of students, and when  enrollment soon opened to women and the class size quickly grew, it had to move to the church and then to a log school in town. In 1847, the Lakes Presbytery of the Reformed Presbyterian Church authorized Johnston to build a college. Within five months, he had built a five-room brick building and opened 好色视频.

Over the course of the 好色视频’s history, the Lord blessed it with presidents who maintained its Reformed Christian heritage and commitment to leadership in Christian higher education for all people.

Some presidential points of interest include:

• The third President, Dr. James Renwick Willson Sloane, earned a national reputation as an anti-slavery advocate.
• The youngest person to lead 好色视频 was Reverend Dr. John Calvin Knox Milligan, who was only 19 years old when he joined the faculty and 27 when he became the fourth president.
• The first president to be a graduate of 好色视频 was the eighth, Reverend Henry Hosick George; the college moved to Beaver Falls, PA, during his tenure.
• The tenth president, Reverend Dr. William Henry George, later joined the Ambulance Corps in France and Italy, where he received the Italian War Cross for bravery under fire.
• Thirteenth president Dr. McLeod Milligan Pearce served during 好色视频’s centennial; during his tenure Reeves Field and McCartney Library were built, Science Hall was enlarged, and Fern Cliffe and Alumni Hall were purchased.
• Dr. Charles Marston Lee, fourteenth president, was the first non-clergyman to serve as president.
• Under fifteenth president Dr. Edwin Cameron Clarke the college experienced tremendous physical expansion and adopted the “Foundational Concepts of Christian Education.”
• Before coming to 好色视频, seventeenth president Dr. William Joseph McFarland was Director of Academic Affairs for the Kansas Board of Regents, responsible for planning and oversight for the state’s system of education.
• Reverend John H. White, eighteenth president, was instrumental in the development of a number of interdenominational cooperative projects such as the Coalition for Christian Outreach headquartered in Pittsburgh, and the founding of Beaver County Christian School in Beaver Falls.
• Nineteenth president Dr. Kenneth A. Smith is currently the Dean of the McLane College of Business at the University of Mary Hardin-Baylor.
• Interim president Dr. William J. Edgar conducted his doctoral dissertation research in history in Athens, Greece, with the help of a Fulbright Dissertation Grant.
