As a Christian college Southern Missionary College is dedicated to die purpose of providing an atmosphere favor- able to the development and maturation of Christian char- acter. The achievemen[ of a sound charaner depends on the development of man's spiritual, mental, social and physical powers. A Christian college is derelict in its responsibility It is the 103d to Chi if it does not provide for the growth of the whole man. To regard the development of the spiritual, the physical pas gives an oppor and the social of lesser importance than the mental would be folly, inasmuch as they cannot stand alone. It is interesting to observe, however, that many alleged Christians give little thought to the development of the mind which represents jmm'^'^^s the Creator's greatest gift to man. The idea that iniellenual competence is incompatible ^L with a thorough-going Christian faith must he discarded J^- if we are to fulfill the Creator's will for His people. Although Southern Missionary College is vitally interested in the ^^gr^^ growth of the whole man, greater emphasis is and must be given [o the development of the student's mental powers. The Scriptures challenge the Christian to a life of inten- sive learning. Nothing is more pathetic than to observe an alleged Christian satisfied widi a completely dormant mind. Counsel has been given both in Scripture and by the prophet- ess of the Lord that "it is a law of the human mind that by be- holding we become changed. Man will rise no higher than his conceptions of truth, purity and holiness. If the mind is never exalted above the level of humanity, if it is not uplifted by faith to comtemplate infinite wisdom and love, the man will be constantly sinking lower and lower."
