Meeting of St. Herman Board of Trustees


In conjunction with the graduation ceremonies, the Board of Trustees met. The board enthusiastically comitted itself to a capital campaign which would ultimately result in the construction of new married student housing on the campus. Until now, cramped conditions with little land on which to expand had been causing the Seminary Board and Administration to consider other options.


Bells are removed from the Bell tower of All Saints of Alaska Chapel in preparation for the arrival of new bells from Russia and the construction of a new bell tower for them.
