How Wheaton College Honors God’s Word B y L. M. A ldridge Wheaton is the largest liberal arts col lege in the State o f Illinois. A thousand young men and young women are there studying for the baccalaureate degree. They come from forty-four states and fourteen countries. Wheaton College is a liberal arts college in every sense of the word. It is not a theological seminary. It is not a Bible Institute. Trite as the fore going three sentences may appear, they are necessary to clear away certain misconcep tions regarding Wheaton College. In its catalogue of 128 pages, the college opens its list of courses of instruction with the Department of Bible and Philosophy. Bible-loving Christians will rejoice to know of the progress of this department, and its influence upon the secular student life. All the college courses are there—biology, zoology, chemistry, geology, psychology, physical education, English, literature, Greek, Latin, French, German, Spanish, history, social science, business admini stration, political science, sociology, mathe matics, physics, astronomy, music, art, and the like—but the entire curriculum is in troduced by the Bible. Scholarly men and women head all of the departments, and some of Wheaton’s most noted thinkers teach in classes devoted to the Bible and Christian philoso phy. Professor Henry C. Thiessen, B. D., Ph. D., D.D., is chairman. President J. Oliver Buswell, Jr., A.M., B.D., D.D., is J. P. Williston Professor of Philosophy and Bible; and M. A. Stone, A.M., D.D., is associate professor o f Bible and Philoso phy. Professor D. A. Straw, M.S.£}Litt. D .; Edith C. Torrey, A.B. (daughter of the distinguished evangelist); Alice K. Spaulding, Ph.B.; Katherine C. Shapleigh, A.B., and Professor Joseph P. Free, Ph.D., complete the Bible staff. Wheaton’s Bible department has three objectives: (1) To provide such elementary train ing in the Bible as Wheaton College requires of every student. (2) To offer additional courses for those who wish to secure a broader knowl edge o f the Bible and related subjects. (3) To provide advanced training for those who wish to enter the field of Christian education, the Christian minis try, or home or foreign missionary service. Wheaton is on the approved list of the Association of American Universities, is a member o f the North Central Association, and is rated Class “A ” by the University of Illinois. Its credits are accepted in all graduate schools throughout the wprld. Undergraduates who love Bible study receive full credit not only toward the Bachelor of Arts and Bachelor, of Philos ophy degrees, but also toward the degree o f Master of Arts. Dr. Thiessen, chairman of the Depart ment of Bible and Philosophy, received his A.B. degree at Northwestern University, the B.D. and D.D. degrees from the North ern Baptist Seminary, and his Ph.D. degree at the Southern Baptist Theologi cal Seminary, Louisville, Ky., where he sat at the feet o f the late A. T. Robertson, the premier Greek scholar of the Western world. Dr. Stone, assistant professor, graduated from Hanover College, where he was awarded the A.B., A.M., and D.D. degrees. While pastor of a large Chicago Presby-
terian church, he did graduate work in the University of Chicago. The courses in Bible and philosophy offered at Wheaton College give the latest development in placing the Bible in its rightful place in a great educational insti tution. It is a long step in the direction of molding a new and better type of college graduate; and it is a challenge to the destructive rationalism that has become the chief parasite in so many colleges and uni versities. Wheaton’s Bible emphasis program is a success! Last year the college led all the universities and colleges of America with an enrollment gain of 21.9 per cent. This year’s advance registration presages an other record for the college that honors God’s Word by making it the spearhead course in its curriculum. The Bible Mastery Campaign The repeated reading of a portion of Scripture, and the continued meditation upon its contents leads to revelation as the power o f the W ord is released. Upon that fact the Bible Mastery Campaign spon sored by the Presbytery o f Seattle and be ginning its seventh year has endeavored to direct interest and attention to the concen trated study o f a chosen portion of the Word. Each year a different book has been assigned for one month o f that year. The book selected for study during the month of October is Ephesians. Chairman o f the Bible Mastery Cam paign is C. J. Boppell, 2666 37th Avenue S. W., Seattle, Wash. A four-page leaflet giving full information concerning the pro gram may be secured by sending a self-ad dressed stamped envelope to the chairman.
