AMBASSADOR
COLLEGE
Never before has there been a college
quite like it. Beginning in 1947, a
dream of Herbert Armstrong began to
be fulfilled . In that year, Pasadena be–
carne the home of Ambassador College.
By the 1959-1 960 college year, enroll–
ment at the Pasadena campus reached
245 full-time students, and in the fall of
1960 another campus was opened in
Bricket Wood, near St. Albans,
England. A third campus in Big Sandy,
Texas, was added in the fall of 1964.
Today, at the three sister campuses
of Ambassador College, a total of
1, 280 students are enrolled. They are
pioneers in a unique educational experi–
ment . Many Ambassador graduates fill
important posts in the worldwide enter–
prises connected with the college' s Ex–
tension Education Program.
