Sturm This study investigates factors that measure the institutional viability of higher education organizations. The purpose of investigating these measures is to provide higher education officials with a means to predict the likelihood of the closure of a higher education institution. In this way, these viability measures can be used by administrators as a warning system for corrective action to ensure the continued viability of their institutions.

  • Restoration Quarterly and Mission
    NEW JOURNALS FOR THE SIXTIES: RESTORATION QUARTERLY AND MISSION Thomas H. Olbricht The 1960's witnessed the emergence of two new journals for dissemination among members of the Churches of Christ, representing new concerns and directions, first the Restoration Quarterly, and then Mission. The Gospel Advocate and The Firm Foundation at that time clearly exhibited traditional journalistic approaches of a hundred years or more. These journals printed short articles on controversial matters among the churches, delineating a consensus perspective, and also inspirational pieces and reports from preachers, mostly regarding gospel meetings. The Gospel Advocate was more traditional than the Firm Foundation, the latter under a new editor after 1955, Reuel Lemmons, who was willing for less conventional views to at least surface. He himself encouraged a degree of openness, forbearance and diversity. In addition, The Christian Chronicle, the Twentieth Century Christian, and Power for Today were recognized and circulated widely. The Christian Chronicle was a major source of news among us, especially in regard to expanding missions. The latter two focused upon current inspirational and spiritual matters especially for college age persons. The Restoration Quarterly and Mission were new in kind, at least among members of the Churches of Christ. New concerns and foci are always a threat to those content with the traditional and conventional, as are most of us. It comes as no surprise then that both of these new journals met with considerable resistance from contemporary church leadership. The control of channels of communication is particularly guarded by leaders who hold their position through aggressiveness and charisma, rather than through institutional, bureaucratic office.

  • Stone-Campbell Connections – by Charles Dailey
    Page 1 of 9 Restoration History LESSON 5 — Stone-Campbell Connections – by Charles Dailey (This short lesson series was designed for a church class and gives an overview of our heritage in being like the church of the New Testament era. The series is not designed for the college classroom with documentation on each point. We have relied heavily on the class notes of Dr. Roger Chambers. ) Introduction: 1. In the first lesson, we noted that God used at least five different men in the U.S. to lead break outs from the established denominations. They were aimed at ditching creeds and using the Bible alone as the only rule of faith and practice. 2. In the second and third lesson, we saw that God was working in the lives of the men of the Campbell family, at least Thomas the father and his oldest son Alexander. 3. In the fourth lesson we noted the work of Walter Scott, Racoon John Smith, Isaac Errett and J. W. McGarvey. 4. In this final lesson, we will look at some outcomes of the Stone-Campbell Movement. I. The Music of the Movement A. Campbell had hoped to solidify the movement by promoting a single hymnal for all of the churches. That did not work, and a number of hymnals were published by other leaders in the movement. B. Many songs and hymns were written by members of the Stone- Campbell churches. They not only sang the great traditional hymns of the church with zest, but they loved their own “Bringing in the Sheaves,” “There Is a Habitation,” “The Beautiful Garden of Prayer,” “The Way of the Cross Leads Home,” “Tell Mother I’ll Be There,” and “His Eye Is on the Sparrow.” .
