That this community has decided to move ahead in providing this opportunity is an action which I commend – and an action which will provide great rewards for the community.” – Ronald Reagan, Governor of California “The true measure of a college is that which takes place within the walls of its existing structures. As we dedicate this campus, we dedicate ourselves to the idea of a community college which will serve as an inspiration to all.” – Dr. Fred H.

It has been a pleasure serving the college over the past 37 years. From professor to president, I have been honored to see our students pursue and achieve their dreams, to witness what was once an 11-bulidng campus evolve into a 122-acre college that welcomes approximately 25,000 students each year, and to watch our esteemed faculty and staff nurture the minds of our students to help them in the next phases of their lives. Indeed, Saddleback College is a wonderful place in which to learn and work, and I welcome you to our fine campus. Over the past 40 years, Saddleback College has grown to become one of California’s premier Community Colleges. Our high-tech learning centers, rigorous academic curriculum, distinguished and talented faculty, and strong student support services are all a part of a learning environment that is stimulating, challenging, and nurturing. Saddleback College’s Honors Program provides an exciting curriculum that guarantees transfer admission to a University of California. The excellence of our programs and faculty is demonstrated by the success of our alumni in their academic pursuits at four-year universities and in the professional world. Saddleback College has always considered the transfer function to be the “heart” of the institution and is consistently ranked in the top 10 percent of California Community Colleges in transferring students to four-year colleges and universities. The number of transfer students continues to increase and new programs of articulation and dual enrollments will continue to support our students in these endeavors.

  • The Early History of Transylvania University
    The Early History of Transylvania University An Archetype of Restoration Movement Institutions of Higher Education James M. Owston in partial fulfillment of LS 758 History and Development of Higher Education Administration Dr. Rudy Pauley Marshall University Graduate College November 19, 1998 Transylvania University 2 The Early History of Transylvania University An Archetype of Restoration Movement Institutions of Higher Education The Disciples of Christ or Restoration Movement has its genesis in the early part of the nineteenth century. As the movement moved westward, individuals and complete congregations of other religious persuasions aligned themselves with the new movement. As churches were established on the frontier, a need for grammar school, secondary and higher education followed. Many individuals seeing this need, established schools. In 1836, the Disciples higher educational mission began with what would eventually become Transylvania University. The early history of Transylvania is an archetype of the movement’s educational experiences. To fully understand the dynamics of the establishment of Transylvania University, it is necessary to understand the movement’s origin and growth. Four independent movements seeking New Testament simplicity of faith and practice are credited with the laying the foundation of the greater movement. These early leaders are as follows: James O'Kelly, Abner Jones and Elias Smith, Barton W. Stone, and Thomas and Alexander Campbell. The initial move to denominational independence occurred when, following a disagreement on church government, James O'Kelly separated from the Methodist- Episcopal church in 1793. Preferring a congregational government, he formed what was originally known as the Republican Methodists. Located in Virginia and North Carolina, this group of churches began using the name of “Christian” in 1794 (Jennings, 1919, pp.
