Synopsis

Milo C. Ross served as president of George Fox College (now University) from 1954 until 1969. In the introduction to this book, Ross refers to his reflection on that period of time as personal and subjective, and this is exactly what makes this book enjoyable and enlightening. This is a story about vision, relationships, and commitment. The future of the college was delicately hanging in the balance when Ross – a Friends Church pastor – assumed leadership of the school. A half century later the publication of this story brings back to life the challenges faced, decisions made, relationships forged, actions taken, and growth experienced.
