Abstract
The Promised Land of Adventist Education in Nigeria
The seed for the present day Babcock University was sown as far back as 1954 when at the floor of the General Conference session Elder D.V. Cowin, the then Educational Secretary of the West African Union Mission, pleaded passionately with the brethren on the need for the establishment of a post-secondary institution to serve higher education needs of thousands of Adventist Youth emerging from the new independent states within the sub-region.
The paper discussed various issues affecting university/host community relationships and proffered recommendations on ways of smoothening such relationships.
