Students are sent from a great distance to attend the college at Battle Creek for the very purpose of receiving instruction from the lectures on Bible subjects. But for one or two years past there has been an effort to mold our school after other colleges. When this is done, we can give no encouragement to parents to send their children to Battle Creek College. The moral and religious influences should not be put in the background. In times past, God has worked with the efforts of the teachers, and many souls have seen the truth and embraced it, and have gone to their homes to live henceforth for God, as the result of their connection with the college. As they saw that Bible study was made a part of their education, they were led to regard it as a matter of greater interest and importance. {5T 21.3}

Studerende sendes langt væk fra, for at gå på colleget i Battle Creek med det ene formål at blive undervist af lektorere i bibelemner. Men for et eller to år siden blev der gjort forsøg på at forme vor skole efter andre colleger. Efter dette, kan vi ikke opmuntre vore forældre til at sende deres børn til Battle Creek College. Den moralske og religiøse indflydelse bør ikke sættes i baggrunden. For nogen tid siden, har Gud arbejdet med lærernes præstationer og mange sjæle har set sandheden og grebet den, (22) og er taget hjem for derefter at leve for Gud, som resultat af, at de har været på colleget. Da de så at bibelstudier blev gjort til en del af deres uddannelse, blev de ledt til at betragte det som af større interesse og betydning.
