Abstract

Perhaps the title needs a word of explanation. We do not ordinarily think of "mission" in connection with long-established educational institutions unless, perhaps, they are located in foreign lands and are part of a "mission" related to a sending church. In fact, all too often "education," even ministerial and missionary training, has been viewed critically as a rival of "missions" for the church’s concern, interest, and dollar.
