Olivet offers a quality education based on Christian values. Our versatile career preparation through 60 majors equips students for a lifetime of effective and satisfying living in a ever-changing scene. An Olivet education challenges you intellectually, personally, physically and spiritually. These challenges are: to find your calling in life; to choose the academic program and career direction that’s right for you; to learn how to achieve, under God, the best for your life. People are what make a college great— people who come to college to learn and live and laugh together. People who are clear about their priorities in life. Your professors at Olivet challenge you to look for the deeper meanings that underlie your academic pursuits. That’s where the Christian perspective makes a difference in your studies. This perspective on learning and living begins with a view of God as our Creator and Lord, rather than a view of man as the ultimate being of the universe. This enables us to develop an approach to behavior based on sound principles. It results in creative and preventive social actions. We want people to become part of the solutions of life, not part of the problems. One of our goals is to develop individuals into leaders who will infiltrate all institutions of society with a Christian world view. To do this, we teach students how to blend the liberal arts and professional training into “ The Living Arts.” Liberal Arts does not mean liberalism or humanism. It means a free study of all of life, combining a sense of understanding from all the branches of knowledge into a coherent view or philosophy of living. 4 We want students to be interested in expanding their understanding of the issues of life. We try to generate a rich environment that will enable students to express their unanswered questions, and discuss them from a view of God which leads them into “the Living Arts.” As serious students increase their appreciation for the past and prepare professionally for the future, we encourage them to be challenged to ask deepening questions within this rich Christian atmosphere, and to find answers based on a firm and reasonable faith in God. An Olivet education has value through professors who are concerned about success for their students. This builds friendships with professors and between students that are strong enough to last a lifetime. Employers seek out Olivet graduates, because they know that a college degree has little or no value unless the person holding it has the interpersonal skills, the self- knowledge, the self-esteem, and the personal integrity to put that college education to its best use. Olivet’s education is affordable. Generous support from the Church of the Nazarene keeps tuition charges far below the average private college or university. Total costs for a year at Olivet are comparable to major state universities in the Midwest. But dollars alone do not reveal the cost or value of a college education. Figure in also the unmeasurable values of the spiritual dimension that will bring out the best in you.

  • MISSION Taylor University Is an Interdenominational Christian
    MISSION Taylor University is an interdenominational Christian Liberal Arts university where faith, living and learning are integrated. Our mission is to develop servant leaders marked with a passion to minister Christ’s redemptive love and truth to a world in need. HISTORY Founded in 1846, Taylor University is one of the oldest evangelical Christian colleges in America. Conceptualized with the conviction that women as well as men should have an opportunity for higher education, Taylor University began as Fort Wayne Female College in Fort Wayne, Indiana, and then became Fort Wayne College. In 1890, the school merged with the Fort Wayne College of Medicine and changed its name to Taylor University in honor of Bishop William Taylor. Three years later, Taylor University moved to Upland, Indiana, because of a population boom in the central part of the state. As a branch of Taylor University, the first distance learning course was offered in 1938 by way of correspondence. Seventy years later, Taylor University Online has grown to offer over 110 courses online, enabling over 1,000 students to achieve educational and personal goals each year. STATEMENT OF FAITH Taylor University is firmly committed to the lordship of Jesus Christ and to evangelical Christianity. To assure the central place of Christian principles in the philosophy and life of the University, the trustees, administration, faculty, and staff believe that: • There is one God, eternally existent in three persons – Father, Son, and Holy Spirit – the ultimate Creator and Sustainer of all things in heaven and on earth. • The Holy Bible is the only inspired, authoritative written word of God, progressively revealing God’s will for humankind.

The coincidence is in some ways intentional because a Taylor schoolmate of mine from the 1950's, Dale Murphy, half jokingly recommended that I read the book as I was going to be making so many speeches during our sesquicentennial celebration. As a kind of hobby, I have over the years taken special notice of events concurrent with the college's founding in 1846. The opera Carman was first performed that year and in Germany a man named Bayer discovered the value of the world's most universal drug, aspirin.
