Opening of Emmanuel Missionary College.
By Editor
Many letters of inquiry have been received asking for information concerning the opening of the new college at Berrien Springs, Mich. Land has been purchased—over two hundred acres on the St. Joseph River. The site is a beautiful one, and is acknowledged to be the best in this part of the country. The buildings will be erected on a bluff overlooking the river, with a background of stately beech and maple. The work of building will begin in the near future. A large amount of student help can be utilized, and those who desire to meet the expenses of an education in our training-school, by manual labor, should at once make that fact known to the managers. The school year 1901-2 will begin in October. Buildings have been rented in Berrien Springs, and the school will be conducted this year in the village. The regular work offered will be practically the same as that given in the last calendar of Battle Creek College, but the courses will be rearranged, making it possible for a student to devote his entire time to one or two studies, thus completing in a few weeks what it would otherwise take a year to accomplish. For instance, if a ministerial laborer wishes to take a course in history, in Bible, or Hebrew, and cannot spend more than three months in school, he can devote his full time to one branch, and thus accomplish his object. At another time he can finish a second subject, and by alternating his field work and study can in the course of a few years greatly increase his proficiency. The same advantages are offered teachers, canvassers, Bible workers, preparatory medical students, in fact, workers in any department. Emmanuel Missionary College is a training-school in the broadest sense, and its courses of instruction are arranged to meet the needs of those who wish such training. Its calendar, which has been withheld until the change was made, will be ready in a few days. It is a manual full of instruction to those who are seeking Christian education, and is freely sent upon application. Remember that the college opens in October. We are glad that so many young people are awake to the needs of the times, and are looking to the training-school for the necessary preparation. Write freely for information, and direct the attention of your friends to Emmanuel Missionary College. Address E. A. Sutherland, Berrien Springs, Mich.
