As time was available, he worked in the archival collections of the School of Theology, housed in the Bridwell Library, with some assistance from me in my role as Associate Librarian and Curator of the Methodist Historical Collections. He invited me to edit his work on the school's history, and to complete any chapters he was unable to finish. As a graduate of Perkins School of Theology ( 1 97 1 ) and a current staff member, I have found this work highly rewarding. Within quotations, and as appropriate within the body of the essay itself, the original forms of reference to gender, race, religious bodies, and theological positions have been left unchanged, without the interruptions of the notation [sic], though current usage would often require changing these terms to a more inclusive or currently accepted term. Readers will find that the end notes are in abbreviated form, with the explanation of the abbreviations in the Bibliography following the Notes. Unless otherwise noted, all manuscript and archival collections cited are in the Bridwell Library, Perkins School ofTheology, Southern Methodist University. For their valuable help to me as I prepared this manuscript for publication, I should like to thank Johnnie Marie Grimes, James E. Kirby, Merrimon Cuninggim, Joseph D. Quillian, W. Richey Hogg, Richard P. Heitzenrater, Decherd Turner, Joseph L. Allen, Charles M. Wood, and H. Neill McFarland. In the final stages of preparing the text, the sad news arrived of the death of Dean Joseph D. Quillian, Jr., on the third day of April, 1992, in Chewelah, Washington. May he rest in peace! Roger Loyd April 1992 IX Introduction How did this history of Southern Methodist University's Perkins School of Theology in Dallas, Texas, come to be written? That question arises for one reason: before his death, Howard Grimes had not yet drafted its preface. Had he done so, he probably would have included in it the book's origins. To uncover its beginnings, I talked with several knowledgeable people in Dallas who made it plain that Dean Emeritus ( 1 982) Joseph D. Quillian, Jr., had been significantly involved in launching the history, but only he could provide an accurate account. A phone call to the retirement household of the Quillians at Chewelah, Washington, brought the Dean's familiar and friendly voice. Quillian readily recalled the occasion. "It was in 1978 or 1 979," he said, "and I don't know whether Howard or I first mentioned the project. Perhaps it just came up in the course of the conversation." The Dean knew then that he would be retiring within two or three years and had suggested specific writing projects to several faculty members who were especially fitted for those jobs. He hastened to add, "For a history of Perkins School of Theology, Howard was clearly the right person for the task. His whole background and experience prepared him for it. He had been graduated from SMU's School of Theology in the late 1930s, came on the faculty of Perkins in 1949, and was at Perkins from the beginning of Merrimon Cuninggim's deanship." I asked whether the idea for the history perhaps had first germinated in Howard's own thinking. "I don't know or recall," said Quillian, "but he was very positively willing to undertake it and responded to it as a gladsome duty." Dean Quillian retired officially in May 1982, but by taking a well-deserved faculty leave in 1981-82, he facilitated James E. Kirby's assuming the deanship in 1981. Also retired from Perkins in 1982, Howard Grimes almost immediately began at First United Methodist Church, Dallas, a full-time ministerial post in communications. In that role he established a well-equipped Media Department and its ministry there. As a result he devoted much less time in the next four years to his history project than he had anticipated, but he kept searching through and reading the University and School of Theology files whenever he could. Then, for reasons of health, Howard Grimes had to XI Xii A fflSTORY OF THE PERKINS SCHOOL OF THEOLOGY relinquish his post in 1987. When his colon cancer was discovered in 1987, it had akeady spread considerably. The surgeon did his utmost to excise all the malignant growth, but feared that it had spread beyond effective reach. Howard's illness and the ensuing medication took their toll. Yet the disease that would take his life spurred a rare determination. As increasing weakness made life daily more complicated and difficult, Howard prayed that he might be given strength sufficient to complete the task. The disease steadily undermined his weakening body. Yet many who knew him well believed that his driving commitment to finish the history kept him alive until he had almost done so. He produced most of this book after the illness assailed him, and to some degree that had to affect his writing. He died on 1 1 December 1989. Uncompleted at his death were his own editing of the entire manuscript, a preface, and a brief chapter covering the years 1 98 1 to the present. Thus Roger Loyd, Associate Director of the Bridwell Library, has edited the manuscript, has written the chapter concerning the years 1981 to the present, and has prepared the entire volume for publication. Dean James E. Kirby has provided a perspective on the seminary's future. William Richey Hogg, Professor of World Christianity Emeritus, has written this introduction. Each has benefited from the gracious help and suggestions of Mrs. Johnnie Marie Grimes, who was Howard's wife and able colleague for nearly 43 years. Generations of students studied under Howard Grimes at Perkins School of Theology, and in seminars across the country. Yet how many knew the background of and shaping forces in the life and career of this able but unassuming man? His parents, Lewis Frederick and Julia Ophelia McClenny Grimes, lived in Breckenridge, Texas, about 95 miles west of Fort Worth, when Lewis Howard Grimes was bom on 10 July 1915. They were "Poor ... and humble, but [they held] high standards," Howard said of them in the 1980s. "Small ranchers or farmers," they labored diligently to succeed and to educate their four children. "Church oriented," both were loyal and active Methodists, reared their children in that tradition, and Mrs. Grimes taught a Sunday School class for years. Fearing that an oil boom might develop in the area and be a disruptive force in family life, Mr. Grimes moved the family, when Howard was four, to Weatherford, some 20 miles west of Fort Worth. Yet he was wise and venturesome enough to keep the farm and its parcel of oil land which provided a supplement to income across the years. Completing his primary and secondary education in Weatherford, Howard continued from 1932 to 1934 in Weatherford Junior College. He then entered the University of Texas at Austin, majored in English, won his Phi Beta Kappa INTRODUCTION xiii key, and gained his B.A. there in 1936 with Highest Honors. In 1936-37 in Cookville, a few miles east of Mt. Pleasant, he taught English and government in the high school, and in the summers of 1936 and 1937 he taught in Weatherford Junior College. He spent the years 1937^0 at Southern Methodist University's School of Theology and gained his B.D. There, among others, he studied under Profes- sors Seehom Seneker (Christian Education), John Hicks (Old Testament), and Robert Goodloe (Church History), and was helped by Librarian Kate Wamick and Registrar Nell Anders—all appointees from the 1921-25 period. Eugene B. Hawk had been Dean from 1933, and Wesley Davis (New Testament), J.

  • The Founding and Defining of a University
    An Occasional Paper Number 21 2007 The Founding and Defining of a University By: Marshall Terry The Founding and Defining of a University PREFACE Southern Methodist University (SMU) was founded for a distinct purpose, to serve as the “connectional institution” for the Methodist Church west of the Mississippi when Vanderbilt University gave up its Church connection and that function. Fortunately for the new university, the Church was in the strong Wesleyan tradition of “think and let think” and its founding president Robert Stewart Hyer was a physicist and knowledgeable academic who said at the outset, in 1916, “Religious denominations may properly establish institutions of higher learning, but any institution which is dedicated to the perpetuation of a narrow, sectarian point of view falls far short of the standard of higher learning.” So, founded as a university with a theology school to train ministers and a tiny music school, SMU, while cherishing the spiritual and moral values and traditions of the Church, was by design denominational and not sectarian. Through the years this openness to various ideas and truth claims has led to SMU’s firm educational basis in the liberal arts. In this essay I will consider the character of the founding president, Robert S. Hyer, and of the defining president Willis McDonald Tate; and look at the definition of the University that emerged from Tate’s 1962-1963 Master Plan; and finally assess some of the University’s successes and failures to act according to its stated principles along the way to the present. HYER Who was this founding president and what were the attributes that allowed him to found and lead a new university of limited financial means compared with other new private universities such as Chicago and Stanford? Hyer was a native of Georgia and graduate of Emory College.

There were several factors that contributed to SMU pushing for desegregation when it did. When SMU started the process of desegregation in the fall of 1950, two schools in the Southwest Conference had already admitted at least one black graduate student. University officials, namely then President Umphrey Lee, realized that because other schools had desegregated, it would not be long before SMU would have to do the same.

  • The Ice Bowl: the Cold Truth About Football's Most Unforgettable Game
    SPORTS | FOOTBALL $16.95 GRUVER An insightful, bone-chilling replay of pro football’s greatest game. “ ” The Ice Bowl —Gordon Forbes, pro football editor, USA Today It was so cold... THE DAY OF THE ICE BOWL GAME WAS SO COLD, the referees’ whistles wouldn’t work; so cold, the reporters’ coffee froze in the press booth; so cold, fans built small fires in the concrete and metal stands; so cold, TV cables froze and photographers didn’t dare touch the metal of their equipment; so cold, the game was as much about survival as it was Most Unforgettable Game About Football’s The Cold Truth about skill and strategy. ON NEW YEAR’S EVE, 1967, the Dallas Cowboys and the Green Bay Packers met for a classic NFL championship game, played on a frozen field in sub-zero weather. The “Ice Bowl” challenged every skill of these two great teams. Here’s the whole story, based on dozens of interviews with people who were there—on the field and off—told by author Ed Gruver with passion, suspense, wit, and accuracy. The Ice Bowl also details the history of two legendary coaches, Tom Landry and Vince Lombardi, and the philosophies that made them the fiercest of football rivals. Here, too, are the players’ stories of endurance, drive, and strategy. Gruver puts the reader on the field in a game that ended with a play that surprised even those who executed it. Includes diagrams, photos, game and season statistics, and complete Ice Bowl play-by-play Cheers for The Ice Bowl A hundred myths and misconceptions about the Ice Bowl have been answered.
