For the second time, Friends University was dropped from the North Central Association list for having insufficient income and an inadequate physical plant. But the examiners listed five points of strength: 1. a college maintained on the basis of New Testament values; 2. a competent faculty; 3. a serious-minded and studious body of students; 4. an interested Board of Trustees; 5. freedom from whatever disturbing influences might come from intercollegiate football. This re-launched the Ten-Year Plan and students were asked to pledge $10 a year for 10 years.
