The Next
“And I am certain that God, who began the good work within you, will continue his work until it is finally finished on the day
when Christ Jesus returns.” -Philippians 1:6
One hundred years have come and gone since East Texas Baptist University opened its doors as the College of Marshall. 100 years! One century of growth, of service,
of promise. Now we embark on another century, in a time much different from when the college began. What will the university be like in 2113-2114?
One thing is for sure -- none of us will be here to know how ETBU is doing 100 years from now, unless through some miracle of science we extend human existence into the 120-year or 130-year range. We can only imagine where ETBU will be then, what the world will be like, and what higher education might look like 100 years from now. We believe, of course, that ETBU will still be that light on a hill; bigger, better, and more promising than ever. Five thousand students. Ten thousand students. Maybe 20,000. That remains to be seen. Perhaps the university will still be composed of 1,500 or 2,000 of the best students Texas and the Southland have to offer. Whatever the size, we hope the mission stays the same: a world of opportunity in a community of faith, still doing the work God has called us to do.
As we enter the second century of service for ETBU, we anticipate great things will happen here on the Hill. We believe, as Paul did, that God, who began the good work within us, will continue his work until it is finally finished on the day when Christ Jesus returns. If that’s more than 100 years from now, we’re confident that ETBU will continue to fight that good fight for the next 100 years. -- Yearbook Staff, 2013-14

Fall Break
We asked students to send us their pictures from fall break, and it is clear that ETBU students took great advantage of the free time. Whether they were road-tripping with friends or spending time with family, these students made sure that this fall break would be one to remember.

Shear Love
Highest girl and guy
fundraiser decided to
give Dr. Dub a friar do.
Students chose to support new styles to help two people battling cancer: ETBU student Nathan Mathias and Jessica Bendo, sister of ETBU student Gabrielle Garcia. During two weeks in the spring semester, 9 girls,10 guys, and 2 staff members fundraised in support of the two fighting cancer by holding a contest asking for donations from the ETBU community. The ETBU Strike Out Cancer fund also donated $500 to the cause. ETBU President Dr. Dub Oliver even put his hair on the line. If Shear Love beat the $3,000 mark in donations he volunteered to shave his head. The fundraiser exceeded its goal by bringing in $5,500.

The 39 Steps provides melodrama, comedy
A man in London tries to help a counerespionage agent, but when the agent is killed, he must go
on the run to both save himself and also stop a spy ring which is trying to steal top secret information. The 39 Steps was a smash hit on campus this year as eight students perfected their parts and offered great performances to soldout crowds in ETBU’s Black Box Theater. The play is a melodrama adapted by Jon Jory from the 1915 novel by John Buchan and the 1935 film by Alfred Hitchcock.

University Community bids farewell to Dub & Susie OliverOn a Monday afternoon in May, 2014, members of
the ETBU community came together to celebrate the tenure of Dr. Samuel W. “Dub” Oliver and his wife Susie. Since their arrival in 2009, their accomplishments are too numerous to mention in this small space, but suffice it to say that Dub and Susie revitalized ETBU,
closing out the first hundred years and establishing a sound foundation and footing for the next 100 years. A beloved couple on campus and in the community, they will be sorely missed, but we wish them well at their new post as President and First Lady at Union University in Tennessee. Dr. Oliver was the 12th president of ETBU.

To Be Continued...“Over the next hundred years, I think ETBU will have grown exponentially in all areas including number of students, buildings and accommodations around campus, etc., and it will continue to mold students into a diverse community of faith. May the light on the hill never die!”
-Macy Freeman, Miss ETBU 2013-14
“I think the things that make ETBU what it is will stay the same throughout the next 100 years. I hope that community, and a Christ-centered atmosphere, will continue to be our core. I think that our academic programs will continue to expand and become more well-known. I trust that God has wonderful things in store for the future of ETBU.” -Kinsey Kent,
SGA President 2013-14
