TO PROSPECTIVE GIRL STUDENTS:
I would like a personal word with girl students
interested in attending AMBASSADOR COLLEGE.
Please excuse the delay in answering your inquiry. The
printing of the enclosed Bulletin has been unavoidably held up.
I'm sure the Bulletin will answer most of your questions.
But I want to tell you in this more personal way what I, as founder
and acting president, am planning for our girl students.
But first let me emphasize you will probably find life
here at AMBASSADOR quite different from that at other colleges.
But all our students feel very thankful they came. Nevertheless,
since it is so different, every prospective student should
understand what these differences are.
The entire atmosphere is different here. The Bulletin is
designed to fully reflect these differences, and I urge you to read
it thoroughly. But perhaps I can amplify it somewhat in a more
personal manner. First of all, we are not a typical large mass-
education institution, but probably the smallest liberal arts
college in America. Our goal is quality, not quantity. We're like
one family here---and a happy family! We are blest with beautiful
and quality surroundings of tone and character. We are privileged
to enjoy a highly cultural setting. The three buildings on the
campus are superbly built, and gradually being restored to original
newness and beauty. The campus grounds are not vast, but our four
acres of magnificently-landscaped grounds are ample for the college
of our size, and they are so perfectly adapted to our specific
needs that they provide advantages not found elsewhere. Personally
I have visited campuses in all parts of the United States---Pacific
Coast, Mountain States, Middle-West, New England, East, and South,
including a good portion of the most famous colleges and
universities in America, and some abroad. And while some of these
are superbly beautiful, nearly all larger than ours, yet it is my
candid personal opinion that none is as truly beautiful.
Our purpose here is a very serious one. Our students all
take it seriously, and no student should enroll who does not. But
life on this campus is full of stimulating interest; it is happy,
and there is time for laughter, play, enjoyment of life to the
fullest. Recreation and social life is an important part
of education here. We believe that when a girl leaves college she
ought to be something more than just a "bookworm." It is part of
our serious, and Christian purpose, that students receive a
