National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics Western Council on Higher Education for Nursing Western Interstate Commission for Higher Education - Biola College is an interdenominational school of higher education emphasizing thorough scholarship and is committed to the basic doctrines of the traditional Christian faith. EDUCATIONAL DISTINCTIVES The college is the outgrowth of an academic and Christian tradition that officially began in 1908. Historically, the institution has been dedicated to the education of men and women for distinctive Christian service. In the earlier years, the curricula were composed primarily of Biblically oriented courses and programs. The school was then known as the Bible Institute of Los Angeles, Inc. Although a variety of programs was offered through the years, it was not until 1949 that serious development of the arts and sciences began. At that time the under graduate program became known as Biola College. This institution has since experienced steady growth in both the quality and diversity of its academic offer ings. Biola College presently operates under the general corporate title of Biola Schools and Colleges, Inc. Because of the college's heritage and commitment, its academic basis is broader than that of the standard college of arts and sciences; and the programs and objectives should be viewed with this in mind. Terminal and preparatory pro grams lead to service in both church-related vocations and the many other voca tions embraced by the present curricula . THE COMMUNITY OF LA MIRADA The city of La Mirada is in Los Angeles County, twenty-two miles southeast of downtown Los Angeles. It lies near the center of Southern California's fastest growing area, surrounded by such cities as Whittier, Norwalk, Buena Park, Anaheim, and Fullerton. La Mirada is a planned residential community with a present population of approximately 26,000. Included within the community are several major shopping areas in addition to many other business establishments. The city has grown from an olive ranch in 1956 to its present size and status. La Mirada is situated near many of the outstanding attractions of Southern California. Downtown Los Angeles can be reached in a half-hour's drive from the campus. Disneyland is twelve miles to the southeast, and famed Knott's Berry Farm is six miles away. Within an hour's drive are such popular beach cities as Long Beach, Newport Beach, Balboa Island, and Laguna Beach. Recreational facilities are easily accessible. An eighteen hole public golf course lies a mile east of the campus, and other parks in the area offer opportunity for activities and relaxation. During the winter, an hour's drive will take one into the nearby mountains where winter sports are available. 15
THE BIOLA CAMPUS The campus is bounded on the west by Biola Avenue and on the east by La Mirada Boulevard. It is located between the large east-west thoroughfares of Rosecrans Avenue and Imperial Highway. Approximately three miles to the south is the Santa Ana Freeway. Students coming to the campus by automobile should follow these directions: coming from the west, leave the Santa Ana Freeway at Rosecrans and travel east to Biola Avenue; coming from the southeast, leave the Santa Ana Freeway at Valley View and travel north to Rosecrans, then turn right to Biola Avenue; coming from the east via San Bernardino Freeway (U.S. Highway 60, 70, 99), turn south on California Highway 39 to Imperial Highway, and right on Imperial to Biola Avenue. Campus buildings include Sutherland Hall, Marshburn Hall, Crowell Hall, and the Science Hall-all large instructional facilities that house classrooms, audi toriums, and offices. Additional campus buildings are the Rose Memorial Library, the cafeteria, the student union, the gymnasium, the Pierce-Hunt Memorial Infirmary, several residence halls, the Rose of Sharon Prayer Chapel, and other structures. The master plan calls for the erection of additional buildings within the next few years. On the eastern side of the campus lie the athletic fields. Included are a crushed brick quarter mile track, an excellent baseball diamond , and tennis courts. THE NATURE AND STANDARDS OF BIOLA COLLEGE In view of the fact that founders of ·Biola desired to serve the Christian public, the conduct of a Biola College student is expected to conform to the highest Christian standard. The rule by which he lives is the earnest striving for God's approval and the conscious protection of his Christian testimony. Specifically, there are certain practices which are contrary to the standards of Biola College and from which, therefore, all students are to refrain as long as they are in school: the use of alcoholic beverages or tobacco, attendance at com mercial theaters, dancing, the use of playing cards, and gambling in any form . Inasmuch as the College is interdenominational and yet theologically conservative, the Articles of Incorporation contain a doctrinal statement, an abridgement of which is given below: "The Bible, consisting of all the books of the Old and New Testaments, is the Word of God, a supernaturally given revelation without error or misstatement in moral and spiritual teachings and record of historical facts . "There is one God, eternally existing and manifesting Himself to us in three Persons: Father, Son, and Holy Ghost. "Our Lord Jesus Christ was supernaturally conceived by the power of the Holy Spirit, born of a virgin, lived and taught and wrought mighty works and
16
wonders and signs exactly as recorded in the four Gospels, was put to death by crucifixion under Pontius Pilate, was raised from the dead in the body that had been nailed to the cross , now sits at the Father's right hand from whence He is coming again personally, bodily, and visibly to this earth to inaugurate His millennial reign. In His pre-existent state He was with God, and of His own choice laid aside His divine glory and took upon Himself the form of a servant and was made in the likeness of men. He became in every respect a real man, possessed of all the essential characteristics of human nature. By His death upon the cross, the Lord Jesus Christ made a perfect atonement for sin, redeeming us from the curse of the law by becoming a curse in our place. "The Holy Spirit is a Person, is God, and is possessed of all the distinctively divine attributes; He indwells all believers, having baptized them into the body of Christ at the time of regeneration. "Man was created in the image of God, but the whole human race fell in the sin of the first Adam, and apart from Christ is spiritually dead and lost. Men are justified on the simple and single ground of the shed blood of Christ and upon the simple and single condition of faith in Him who shed the blood, and are born again by the Holy Spirit, through the instrumentality of the Word of God. All those who receive Jesus Christ as their Saviour and their Lord, and who confess Him as such before their fellow men become heirs of God and joint heirs with Jesus Christ; and at death their spirits depart to be with Christ in conscious blessedness; and at the second coming of Christ their bodies shall be raised and transformed into the likeness of the body of His glory. All those who persistently reject Jesus Christ in the present life shall be raised from the dead and throughout etern'ity exist in a state of conscious and endless torment. "The Church consists of all those who, in this present dispensation, truly believe on Jesus Christ and is the body and bride of Christ, which Christ loves and for which He has given Himself. "There is a personal devil, a being of great cunning who can exert vast power only so far as God suffers him to do so, and who shall ultimately be cast into the lake of fire and brimstone." THE OBJECTIVES OF THE COLLEGE Academic Objectives: The College seeks to provide thorough training and sound scholarship in all the areas provided in its curriculum.
