More About This School

History & Fun Facts

  • Clark founded the Kansas Central Bible Training School on the site of Haviland Friends Academy, a Quaker high school in Haviland, Kansas.
  • A two-year junior college course was added in 1925, and the name was changed in 1930 to Friends Bible College to more fully reflect the growing mission of the institution.
  • By 1968, the school's vision put an emphasis on the four-year institution, leading to closure of the high school program and an effort to secure necessary faculty and facilities.
  • This effort received general recognition in 1975 with the granting of full accreditation by the Association for Biblical Higher Education.
