The Autobiography of Herbert W Armstrong - Installment 63 - Herbert W Armstrong - March 1964

Herbert W Armstrong

College activities develop. World Tomorrow goes coast to coast on ABC Network, then on television. Was I crazy to start a Liberal Arts co-ed college? There was no fund of several million dollars for such a project. There was no fund of even several hundred dollars. For this purpose, there was no fund - period! At all! What There Was - and Wasn't. There was no endowment. There was no sponsoring philanthropist. There was opposition. There were obstacles. They piled up mountain-high. There were problems, seemingly unsolvable. But there was something else. There was vision. There was clear and definite realization of the imperative need. And there was faith and determination; a sense of mission, a fired-up zeal and energy that refused to be defeated or to quit. I think most anyone would say that a man would be either crazy or a fool to attempt to found a college under those circumstances. It costs money to operate a college. - Information Supplied By: Herbert W Armstrong Library
