    CII818L8tl or SIYIITI·Ill IIYIITIST IIUCITIGI CENTURY OF ADVENTIST EDUCATION 1872 - 1972 ·,; Compiled by Walton J. Brown, Ph.D. Department of Education, General Conference of Seventh-day Adventists ·t. 6840 Eastern Avenue, N.W., Washington, D.C. 20012 i/ .I Foreword In anticipation of the education centennial in 1972 and the publication of a Seventh-day Adventist chronology of education, the General Conference Department of Education started to make inquiries of the world field for historical facts and statistics regarding the various facets of the church program in education. The information started to come in about a year ago. Whlle some of the responses were quite detalled, there were others that were rather general and indefinite. There were gaps and omissions and in several instances conflicting statements on certain events. In view of the limited time and the apparent cessation of incoming materials from the field, a small committee was named with Doctor Walton J. Brown as chairman. It was this committee's responsibility to execute the project in spite of the lack of substantiation of certain information. We believe that this is the first project of its kind in the denomination's history. It is hoped that when the various educators and administrators re­ view the data about their own organizations, they will notify the Department of Education concerning any corrections and additions. They should please include supporting evidence from as many sources as possible. It is hoped that within the next five to ten years a revised edition may replace this first one. It would contain not only necessary changes, but also would be brought up to date.

What has become of our Heidi Ramirez (current student) David Sherwin (BFA ’82) traditional, family-style campuses of yesteryear, and why do our sweet Sabbath School children Brian Tagalog (current student) grow up and go to college, they wonder! Well perhaps it is precisely those diverse, inefficient and at times unruly institutions that make college education so dynamic and effective. Think of the recent student demonstrations in the universities of Missouri, Yale and elsewhere—a bit messy perhaps, but they received national attention and things are changing. I admit some of this campus activity can be disconcerting and is not a really effective way of running a university, but it does draw attention to critical issues, raise important questions, propose solutions, and help make education a change agent in our society and also in our church.

PROPHETESS T No sooner had these words been flashed earthward from the Air National Guard jet fighter than the ground FORETOLD crews leaped into action. Fire engines roared from their OF hangars and rescue squads sped to the runway. As the delta-wing aircraft approached the mile-and-a-half- long runway, everything seemed to be in order. The three landing gears appeared to be down and locked. Yet that red light persisted to shine in the pilot's face from the instru- ment panel, warning that all was not well. ctiOarkting The plane mushed toward the runway in a nose-high landing attitude, almost touching the concrete in front of the emergency vehicles. But before the craft could touch down, the pilot kicked in ,the afterburner and shot back into the sky, wheels still extended. His second approach looked much the same, but this time the pilot allowed the plane to settle onto the runway. Puffs of smoke trailed from the two on the main wheels as the tires skidded from standstill to a speed of well over 100 miles per hour. The pilot held the nose off as long as possible, but as soon as the third wheel touched the pavement, the gear folded under and the plane skidded the nt6trument remainder of the distance on its nose, fire trucks speeding down the runway after it. Fortunately, the pilot climbed out of the cockpit unhurt 'Panel and the plane suffered only superficial damage.
