Alaska Christian College Celebrates Five Years
SOLDOTNA, AK (May 11, 2006) - Alaska Christian College (ACC) celebrated five
years of students graduating from the school on April 30, when 28
students completed their studies.
One of those students – Katherine Rae Fancher – will continue on to the
Naval Academy in Annapolis. She is the first graduate to earn acceptance
to the prestigious school. The graduating ACC class also recorded the
strongest grade point average yet at the school, says President Keith
Hamilton.
Hamilton also says that the school has been able to retain its entire
staff and pay its bills despite the suspension of federal funds
initially designated for the school. The money has been withheld pending
a final decision on whether the funding violates the U.S. Constitution.
Hamilton credits the generosity of donors with the ability of the school
to continue those services.
Funding still is needed to complete the multi-purpose conference and
dining hall, Hamilton says. More than 220 people already have
volunteered to help this summer with projects at the school.
