This book aims to help educators and administrators
- find strong inspiration, helpful answers, and new questions;
- prompt new directions in conversations and planning sessions;
- create a little cognitive dissonance that will lead to new insights and innovations;
- and effect a deeper understanding of, and appreciation for, the essential unity and the healthy diversity that are found among and between the various Seventh-day Adventist institutions of higher learning.
