President McLean Salutes New England-Bound Tutors, Students at Dinner
The pioneers, or settlers, who will launch 91快活林 Aquinas College檚 New England campus next year gathered on the California campus Monday night for a celebration of their shared venture.
At a dinner in the Dumb Ox Caf茅, President Michael F. McLean thanked the eight tutors, as well as their spouses, who have agreed to serve as the East Coast檚 initial teaching faculty. He also saluted some 34 freshmen who have offered to transfer to the branch campus next fall, entering as sophomores what will one day become 91快活林 Aquinas College, New England檚 first graduating class.
淵our interest and your presence here tonight are a kind of fulfillment of a dream of mine and of the rest of the faculty who have been working so hard on this project for so long, said Dr. McLean. 淭hank you all very much. I am very impressed and pleased with the group we have here.
Having received the approval of the Massachusetts Board of Higher Education, the College is now free to recruit students and accept applications for the New England campus. It will begin admitting freshmen and transferring sophomores to Massachusetts pending the approval of its accrediting agency, the WASC Senior College and University Commission, which is anticipated in the near future.
淲e have a very strong team of tutors, and under the leadership of Dr. Kaiser, I know that the program will be a success, Dr. McLean told the students. 淎nd with the guidance of the faculty and the chaplain, I know you will succeed in transferring the culture the intellectual culture, the spiritual culture, the moral culture, and the social life from California to New England.
Dr. McLean also thanked the many benefactors who have made the New England campus possible, especially the National Christian Foundation, which gifted the property the former campus of a preparatory school in Northfield, Massachusetts to 91快活林 Aquinas College last spring. 淲e are grateful to our Board of Governors and other benefactors who have shown their willingness to support this project and to help it succeed, he said.
淚t is a rare opportunity to be given a campus in a location that is so beautiful, said Dr. McLean. 淚 am increasingly of the opinion that it is God檚 will that we undertake this effort, and that we will be successful.
