Useful, but not incredible
I got this book as a recommended, but not required text for a church history class.For the most part the charts are really just very nice Powerpoint graphics.They can help to visualize some things, but they are hardly packed with information.When I think "charts" I think information, not just pretty pictures.

I do have a feeling that I will use the CD for presentations if I ever have to teach on any of these subjects.I think that is where the book really shines.I don't think it's as useful for the students as it is for the teacher.

Very Helpful Resource
This work is an excellent source for visualizing concepts of church history during its early years.The charts are well done and organized. The included CD-Rom includes Power Point presentations of the charts without the footnotes and makes use in a classroom situation easy.The limited copy permission makes this an invaluable tool in studying and teaching church history.

Useful but CD lacking
Although the charts are useful, the CD would be much more useful if the comments in the printed charts were in the powerpoint material as "Notes".In order for this to be completely useful as a training tool, those printed comments for each chart must be typed into the powerpoint slides on the notes pages for each slide.

A Must-Have for Students and Teachers of Church History
With many images to help the visual learner and clear explanations for all students of church history, this book is a wonderful asset to a personal, academic, or church library. The CD includes all the charts, making it an easy-to-use resource for teachers. Highly recommended!

Average
I feel this book of charts is a bit oversimplified. The CD is useful. If I had looked thorugh the book prior to purchase I probably would not have purchased it. With that said it is worth the money. ... Read more

, Michigan State College: John Hannah and the Creation of a World University, 1926 1969 is the second volume in the 3 volume Sesquicentennial history of Michigan State University. Preceded by Michigan Agricultural College: The Evolution of a Land-Grant Philosophy, 1855 1925, this second volume explores the Hannah years.

Today, Michigan State University cannot be separated from the enormous influence of one man, John Hannah, who steered its growth, academic programs, influence, and international prestige. During his tenure as Michigan State College and Michigan State University president, the land-grant institution grew from an enrollment of just over 6,000 to just under 40,000. This dramatic increase necessitated an extensive building program. The curriculum was also upgraded and modified. In 1944, the Basic College, a national prototype, was established to provide instruction to incoming students. Other innovations included Adult Education (1951), the International Program (1950s), MSU Oakland University (1959), and the creation of a medical program (1960s). As the twelfth president of Michigan State University, John Alfred Hannah served from 1941 to 1969. His tenure was characterized by the unparalleled growth of the university, in the size of the campus, enrollments, political controversy, and achievements. ... Read more
