Rev. Dr. James S. Barrett
15th President, 1981-1984

"A firm believer in the notion that faith and learning belong together, Dr. Barrett stated, "The noble notion of a church college in a secular society is one of the most compelling ideas in the entire current marketplace of thought. It is in the little college, underfunded and quite often undervalued, that a cosmic struggle goes on day by day to weld the force of budding intellect to the fabric of faith."
