Page "Bob Jones University" Paragraph 24

In 1944, Jones wrote to John Walvoord of Dallas Theological Seminary that while the university had " no objection to educational work highly standardized …. We, however, cannot conscientiously let some group of educational experts or some committee of experts who may have a behavioristic or atheistic slant on education control or even influence the administrative policies of our college.

" Five years later, Jones reflected that “ it cost us something to stay out of an association, but we stayed out.

We have lived up to our convictions .” In any case, lack of accreditation seems to have made little difference during the post-war period, when the university more than doubled in size.
