Excerpt:
Ryken, his Trustees and faculty grudgingly admit this in their Report. But note their final sentence. They couldn't help themselves:
During (Buswell's) tenure as president (1926-1940), the College's endowment expanded substantially, both the faculty and the student body roughly tripled in size (from a few hundred to more than a thousand), and the school's academic rigor and national (and international) reputation grew as never before. Wheaton had become what some have referred to as "the Harvard of Fundamentalism." But these dramatic changes were not accompanied by a more expansive vision for racial equality.[fn]Report, 13.[/fn]
The reader of such effete criticism must, of course, understand every last member of the Task Force, administration, and Board of Trustees is certain he himself is in possession of the most expansive vision for racial equality possible. But it should strike fear into the hearts of these faultless men judging Buswell to spend a moment asking themselves what other expansive visions of impeccable moral equality their successors ninety years from now will discover as future generations turn to examining the detritus of their own lives, then denouncing them and purging their names from Wheaton's campus.
