graduated from JCM 1982, the year AFTER they turned over almost the entire faculty, reformatted the teaching, instituted the "fast" day that was affectionally known as the "fast food" day.

Graduated from JCM in 85.It totally changed the direction of my life.I thank God for the opportunity to go to Bible College. It seems like alot of the ABI people haven't heard about the forum yet.

I have some friends who graduated from ABI in the 80's... In fact, here where I live, most of the pastors are from ABI..!!!

[QUOTE=deacon blues;440585]ABI Class of '87 - JCM was a mess the years prior to my attending ABI (early 80s). I think it might have progressed a bit better while I was at ABI. I am friends with some guys that graduated during those mid 80s years. JCM was the "hot shot" school. ABI was mostly a bunch of no name Midwestern salt of the earth types. No playboys and BMWs and Mercedes in the parking lot.

Your pastors son had alot to do with JCM being a mess,lol.He got me in more trouble while he was at school.We had alot of fun,but was called into the deans office several times.I'm sure glad he graduated so I would quit getting in trouble.

My husband went to JCM... 2001 right before the end of the end

He was going to go when he first got out of high school. Instead he ended up... well not living right to say the least... and after he got back in church and out of the military.. Bro Craft and Bro Clark asked him to come and even allowed him to attend and yet only be in class 2 weeks a month because of his work schedule. They recorded all the classes and he did his other work when he returned on his 2 weeks off.

My intention was to return in the fall of 1957 but that did not happen.
I never went back there.

My FIL graduated in 1956, the year my wife was born.

A LOT of pastors kids (and District Supe kids) got in trouble at JCM.....I would not blame it on one...and that was during the years from 79 to 82 that I speak of.
