This book chronicles the history of North Central College from its founding in 1861 until its centennial in 1961, reflecting the major trends, crises, and eras in the nation's history. The author highlights the struggles and triumphs of the Evangelical Association as they sought to establish an institution that would transmit the traditions of civilization and education. The book traces North Central's curriculum as it evolved from a classical focus to include modern and practical studies, reflecting the changing needs of the time. The work also explores the social and cultural influences that shaped the college and its students, including the abolitionist movement, temperance, and women's rights. The author sheds light on the role of key figures, such as the institution's first president, Augustine A. Smith, and the challenges they faced in maintaining academic standards, securing the college's financial stability, and navigating the Civil War period. Ultimately, the book reveals the enduring legacy of North Central College as an institution dedicated to the pursuit of knowledge, personal growth, and service to the community.
