  • Chronology of Seventh-Day Adventist Education: 1872-1972
    CII818L8tl or SIYIITI·Ill IIYIITIST IIUCITIGI CENTURY OF ADVENTIST EDUCATION 1872 - 1972 ·,; Compiled by Walton J. Brown, Ph.D. Department of Education, General Conference of Seventh-day Adventists ·t. 6840 Eastern Avenue, N.W., Washington, D.C. 20012 i/ .I Foreword In anticipation of the education centennial in 1972 and the publication of a Seventh-day Adventist chronology of education, the General Conference Department of Education started to make inquiries of the world field for historical facts and statistics regarding the various facets of the church program in education. The information started to come in about a year ago. Whlle some of the responses were quite detalled, there were others that were rather general and indefinite. There were gaps and omissions and in several instances conflicting statements on certain events. In view of the limited time and the apparent cessation of incoming materials from the field, a small committee was named with Doctor Walton J. Brown as chairman. It was this committee's responsibility to execute the project in spite of the lack of substantiation of certain information. We believe that this is the first project of its kind in the denomination's history. It is hoped that when the various educators and administrators re­ view the data about their own organizations, they will notify the Department of Education concerning any corrections and additions. They should please include supporting evidence from as many sources as possible. It is hoped that within the next five to ten years a revised edition may replace this first one. It would contain not only necessary changes, but also would be brought up to date.

    March 2006 SOUTHERN Spreading Tidings of the Southern Union Adventist Family Adventist “EDGE” Education A Passion for Excellence A Goal for Godliness Vantage Point Pointing to God’s Way of Living A few months ago my parents sent me an old report card. Why they saved this one, I don’t know, but there it was—the original first semester, third grade report card from Home Study Institute. I tossed it aside at first, but later began to see the signifi- cance. Third grade was while my parents were missionaries in Colombia, South Amer- ica, and they were determined, no matter what, that their children would receive an Adventist education. Mother was the teacher, and my brother and I got our books and assignments from Home Study Institute in Washington D.C. It was far from convenient. Studying at home was not my favorite. There were lots of interruptions, and sometimes mother was overwhelmed with it all, but in our family, Adventist Christian Education is a priority. Dad’s parents, living in Bowdle, South Dakota, “became convicted of the truth,” as they used to say, and joined the Seventh-day Adventist Church. They had eight chil- dren. What about Adventist educa- tion? Because there wasn’t a school nearby, they moved the whole family Praise God for this 2005 Report to Lodi, California, so they could be near Lodi Academy and, later, Pa- When the Georgia-Cumberland Confer- cific Union College.
