• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

This is an historical study of an institution of
higher education that
existed in St.
Augustine, Florida from 1942-1949. The name of the
institution
was The University
Foundation, founded by George J. Apel, Jr. This
institution had
several higher
education divisions functioning under its umbrella.
These divisions
were the St.
Augustine Junior College, the Graduate Division, the
American
Theological Seminary
and the University Extension College with evening
courses and
Home Study courses for
vacation study.
The results of this study provide answers to the
circumstances and
identities of
the key players which led to the formation of The
University
Foundation. Issues relating
to the mission, revenue streams, faculty, curricula,
and the ultimate
demise of The
University Foundation were also addressed in this study.
Recommendations are included for higher education
administrators,
faculty,
researchers, fund-raisers, and others whose efforts
may be directed
toward the
launching and operation of new Christian institutions
of higher
learning.
