Covenant College moved to Lookout Mountain in 1964 with 145 students, a large hotel to be renovated, 27 acres of land and a mountain ized mortgage. Cov nant College stand today a a great witness to the vitality of the Christian faith and God's faithfulness. It stand b cause of the continuous support and hard work of many great and generous people-friends, faculty, taff, tru tees, student and churches. The college has h Id firm to th faith on which it was founded. It grew and prospered during th turbulent i ties and early seventies. The a sets were increased from $425,475 to $2,875,000.

A I close my term as President, I commend the college and its future to all of you; I encourage you to give the same high level of support by your influence, your gifts and your prayers that I have received. You, the college and the Lord's work have been great blessings to all the Barn s family. May we go fo,rward with faith and with confidence. ~]J Marion D. B mes Past President, 1965-78 4 I can only rejoice a I am reminded of the Lord' goodne s to Cov nant College over the past years. I thank Him for His continual faithfuln s . Although l watched the 1977-7 year unfold as pr sid nt-elect, l took a vital interest in everything that happened during the past year. ow it is time to look for ard, and many alumni and friends f the c llcge ha e asked me what I believ the future direction of the coll ge should be. This question come as areas urnnce that th se alurnni and friend ar still cone rncd about the di tinctively hristian education vvhich Cov nant offer . By God' grace, I hope to hold firmly to the tat m nt of purpo c of the college and to consi t ntly \,vork out th implication of our nwtto, "In all thing ... Chri l pre-eminent," (Col. 1:1 ). I will att mpt to continue to maintain our stance as a college committ d to an evangelical, Reformed doctrinal po ition. Th Bib] will continue to be vie\ cd as the in pi red word of God and will b the ource of truth by which the college e aluat s all di cipline , is u , and tr n d . The basic po iti n which the college has taken over the years have resulted in growth and great bles ing. I beli ve that the Lord will continue to bl our ffort a we eek fir t Hi kingdom and His righteousness. I will be working to in ere a e enrollment and to keep steady the flow of gifts and grants for the operating budget. These two aspects of our work, student recruitment and financial development, present tremendou challenges. I urge your prayer support and personal involvement in both areas. Jesus said that if our faith is a a mustard seed, we will have the power to move mountains. Our mustard seed should blossom as we look at the Lord's goodness and faithfulness in the past. The blessings of the 1977-78 year should remind us that the Lord is able to provide abundantly for His people. I hope that you will become increasingly acquainted with the Lord's work here at Covenant College, and I invite your full participation in the important months to come. //L~rE:hPresident, 1978- 5 At Covenant, where we are continually thrown on the Lord's mercies, we are reminded constantly that we must remain faithful to the Christian purpose with which the college began. This is not possible without the energetic work of faculty members and students, as they seek to improve an ever expanding academic program. Keepi.'1g to a statement of purpose is a constant challenge; it requires daily discipline and enduring commitment. We must regularly check to see if we are fulfilling om purpose--our reason for being here. The following goals a.re outlined in the Covenant College Statement of Purpo e, and there are two things at Covenant which make this statement workable: The first is that the statement is based 011 Biblical truth. The statement of purpose begins, "The college is committed to the Bible as the Word of God written." Th.rough the truth of the Scriptures we can see all other areas of life. The statement goes on to list four basic aims of the college: 1) to see the creation as the handiwork of God; 2) to acknowledge the fallen nature of ourselves and of the rest of creation and to respond in view of tJ-te renewal which begins with Christ's redemption; 3) to reclaim the creation for God and redirect it to the service of God and man; 4) to think as Christians about culture; Important goals? Yes! They provide Covenant's reason for existence! They are based on Scriptural truths! But how to reach these goals? This leads us to the second point: The statement of purpose is workable because God enables His people to do His will. Day by day through the last year, we saw Him sustain His work. Whether it was through a stirring chapel speaker, a devoted teacher, an aspiring student, a careful administrator, or a faithful friend of the college, God was our enabler1 The purpose of Covenant College is stated in its motto-"That in all things Christ might have the pre-eminence" (Col. 1:18). We acknowledge Christ pre-eminent as the creator of all things, as the redeemer of men fallen into sin, as the touchstone of all truth, and as sovereign ruler over all areas of life. Join with us in seeing how the Lord enabled His work to be done in an exciting way at Covenant College in 1977-78. 7 A God-directed faculty ... The essence of a college or university in the June.

    CLASS STRUGGLE, THE COMMUNIST PARTY, AND THE POPULAR FRONT IN CANADA, 1935-1939 A Thesis Submitted to the Committee on Graduate Studies in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts in the Faculty of Arts and Science TRENT UNIVERSITY Peterborough, Ontario, Canada © Copyright by Martin Schoots-McAlpine, 2016 Canadian and Indigenous Studies M.A. Graduate Program January 2017 ABSTRACT Class Struggle, The Communist Party, and the Popular Front in Canada, 1935-1939 Martin Schoots-McAlpine This thesis is an attempt to provide a critical history of the Communist Party of Canada (CPC) during the Popular Front era, roughly November 1935 to September 1939. This study contains a detailed examination of the various stages of the Popular Front in Canada (the united front, the height of the Popular Front, and the Democratic front), with special attention paid to the CPC’s activities in: the youth movement, the labour movement, the unemployed movement, the peace movement, and the anti-fascist movement. From this I conclude that the implementation of the Popular Front, the transformation of the CPC from a revolutionary party to a bourgeois party, was not a smooth process, but instead was punctuated and resisted by elements within the CPC in what can be considered a process of class struggle internal to the CPC itself. Keywords: Communist Party of Canada, communism, Soviet Union, labour, Popular Front, Great Depression, socialism, Canada ii Acknowledgements I would first like to express my gratitude to my supervisor, Dr. Bryan Palmer, for his patience and assistance in writing this thesis. I benefitted greatly from his expertise in the field.
