Traveling evangelist John Brown believed that colleges had become elitist and morally suspect, so he founded a small utopian college in 1919 to better combine evangelical Christianity and higher education. Rick Ostrander places John Brown University in the tradition of Christian education, but also shows that evangelicalism had largely separated from mainstream higher education by the twentieth century.
