Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book details the movement to establish the Christian Library Association (CLA), originally known as the Society of Inquiry for Missions. Initially composed of students from religious backgrounds interested in gospel ministry, this Christian Association would eventually expand in enrollment and aims, welcoming participation from all students regardless of faith, and adopting a broader focus on Christian life and university culture. Furthermore, amidst the establishment of the CLA the author highlights the struggle for balance between sectarian exclusivity and the diversity of religious thought on college campuses, arguing against religious tests for faculty and advocating for the appointment of scholars based on merit. The author holds that the University of Michigan must avoid these tests, as they would violate its charter as a publicly funded institution. Ultimately, the author insists that the Christian Library Association represents a valuable compromise between the extremes of sectarianism and secularism, nurturing religious life on campus while preserving the university's commitment to intellectual freedom and academic excellence. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9781333343408_0
