I made the statement at one time that I believed it was morally and intellectually dishonest for any person to become a dean or president or, indeed, become a faculty member of a school, and try to change the doctrinal position of that school. I thought it was intellectually and morally dishonest. If he did not like the school the way it was when he became employed, he certainly should not try to remain and change it. In view of the fact that all of the colleges in southern California had departed from the faith of their fathers, Dr. Pullius felt that it would be inadvisable for me to present such a wholesale condemnation, so I did not use the phrase anymore publically. But I still believe with all of my heart that if anyone tries to change the doctrinal position of Biola, some Johnny-come-lately, I think that he deserves to be completely reprimanded and dismissed.
