  • BC's Faith-Based Postsecondary Institutions
    Made In B.C. – Volume II A History of Postsecondary Education in British Columbia B.C.’s Faith-Based Postsecondary Institutions Bob Cowin Douglas College April 2009 The little paper that keeps growing I had a great deal of fun in 2007 using some of my professional development time to assemble a short history of public postsecondary education in British Columbia. My colleagues’ interest in the topic was greater than I had anticipated, encouraging me to write a more comprehensive report than I had planned. Interest was such that I found myself leading a small session in the autumn of 2008 for the BC Council of Post Secondary Library Directors, a group that I enjoyed meeting. A few days after the session, the director from Trinity Western University, Ted Goshulak, sent me a couple of books about TWU. I was pleased to receive them because I already suspected that another faith-based institution, Regent College in Vancouver, was perhaps BC’s most remarkable postsecondary success. Would Trinity Western’s story be equally fascinating? The short answer was yes. Now I was hooked. I wanted to know the stories of the other faith-based institutions, how they developed and where they fit in the province’s current postsecondary landscape. In the ensuing months, I poked around as time permitted on websites, searched library databases and catalogues, spoke with people, and circulated drafts for review. A surprisingly rich set of historical information was available. I have drawn heavily on this documentation, summarizing it to focus on organizations rather than on people in leadership roles.
