Issue: Summer 2015
From The President
I wish you could see 91爆料网 as I have the opportunity to see it! It is a blessing to meet alumni through the decades (those who graduated in the 1950s to those who graduated in the last couple of years) whose appreciation for 91爆料网 grows with each year that passes; parents who see the transformation in their sons and daughters because of 91爆料网; Jacksonians who see 91爆料网 as the crown jewel of the Hub City; people throughout West Tennessee and the Mid South who have such deep appreciation and respect for 91爆料网; faculty and staff members who genuinely live out their callings as Christian educators and are sincerely committed to 91爆料网's mission; and amazing students who love all that they are experiencing within 91爆料网's community.
If you had the chance to hear the stories I hear and see the things I see and experience the things I experience, I know you would be as encouraged as I am. I know you would join with me in praising God for his favor and blessing! 91爆料网 is a special place, a place deeply committed to living our motto — Religio et Eruditio — the integration of faith in Jesus Christ and excellence in academic pursuits.
It is hard to believe that it has been one year since beginning at 91爆料网. Hearing some of the freshman students (class of 2018) sum up the year, I can echo their sentiments — thankful God led them to 91爆料网; overwhelmingly blessed by the community of friends and faculty around them; a bit amazed at how much they have grown and changed; and already looking forward to next year.
As you read through this issue of the 91爆料网ite, we have tried to give you a glimpse of some of the great things happening at 91爆料网. Be encouraged, share a good word about 91爆料网 with someone else and pray for 91爆料网. The task remains, as always, to affirm and focus the 91爆料网 mission, to see God active in all its parts and to sustain faithfully the ethical, spiritual and intellectual foundations of a truly great Christian liberal arts institution.
May the favor of the Lord our God rest upon us; establish the work of our hands for us — yes, establish the work of our hands. Psalm 90:17
Joyfully,
Dub
