Revisiting AUP: 30 years ago:




"One report that brought sadness to our hearts during this quadrennium was the turning down by the FED and the GC of our request to open a medical school during the FED mid-year meeting in May 1983 in Seoul, Korea. Conditions were so favorable for such a project! But again, God knows best." Alfonso P. Roda



"Dr. Howard Detwiler, who pledged his support for the medical school with a $1 million pledge, was bitterly disappointed at the disapproval of the project... and after his careful consideration, was convinced that the library building was what he would like to build with his contribution." Alfonso P. Roda



"... our FED annual committee this November made a decision to move the Seminary off campus. It is with a sad heart that I accept this decision as the solution adopted... But the Lord has His hand on the affairs of the Church and guides for best results." Alfonso P. Roda
