Inspire, Summer 1998

From the Director's Chair edarville College was founded in prayer, has been maintained in faith, and supported by sacrifice; and long after this generation shall have run its race, Cedarville College will live to enrich the nation,gladden the church,and bless the world; and with the years it will grow in material equipment until it becomes thejoy of this community and is numbered high among the favored colleges ofour country." On November 12, 1915,Wilbert Renwick McChesney,second president of Cedarville College, uttered these words in his inaugural address. Could he have been more accurate? Years of consistent,godly leadership have brought Cedarville College to the place it is today and will move it with confidence into the third millenium.This issue of Inspire honors those men and women who are actively serving Cedarville College in the area of administrative leadership. I hope that you enjoy reading about the administrative council,some ofour trustees,our chancellor, and our president. Although much that they do is often "behind the scenes," we would be remiss if we neglected to acknowledge and thank them for"Leading in the Right Direction."
