Anderson Is Alumnus of Year

Clifford Anderson, Ed.D., was selected this spring as the 2004 Bethel Seminary
Deserving Dean
alumnus of the year. Anderson served on the faculty of Bethel Seminary St. Paul from 1959 to 1978, when he became the first dean of Bethel Seminary San Diego. Under his leadership from 1978 to 1995, the seminary recruited an outstanding faculty, achieved full accreditation, completed a new building, and welcomed an increasingly diverse student population from across the nation and around the world. For these contributions and more, Anderson credits God. “A great school was not the goal,” he explains. “The goal was extending Christ’s rule on earth.”
