Abstract
The educational programme of the Seventh-day Adventist Church has attracted interest for three main reasons: (a) its Christian philosophy of education, (b) its recent origin, (c) its extent. Throughout most countries of the world the schools of the denomination are found. These range from primary schools to colleges of university level. In Australia, for example, the Avondale College, Cooranbong, N.S.W., prepares students for the University of London B.Sc and for the "Common First Year" science Course of the University of N.S.W. It also is affiliated with Pacific Union College, California, U.S.A., an officially accredited institution of higher learing, through which if offers Bachelor of Arts degrees in Secondary Education, and Theology. In the United States of America the denomination operates two universities: Andrews University, Berrien Springs, Michigan, and Loma Linda University, Loma Linda, California, The latter is an American Medical Association - approved medical centre. It has major schools (Dentistry, Medicine, Nursing) and six related professional schools (Nutrition and Dietetics, Medical Technology, Physical Therapy, Radiologic Technology, Public Health and Tropical Medicine, and Graduate Studies).
