Rensselaer Semi-Weekly Republican, Volume 20, Number 61, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 4 April 1899 — The Baccalaureate Sermon. [ARTICLE]

The Baccalaureate Sermon.

Prof. Sanders, our city school superintendent, has evidently again been very fortunate in the man he has secured to deliver the annual baccalaureate address to the graduating class of this year. He has secured Prof. Bunis A. Jenkins, president of Indianapolis University, one of the highest educational positions in the state. He is a man of great and varied attainments, as also of wide and varied experience. Thus he has been a student of Bethany College, Virginia, and of both Harvard and Tale Universities. He has also been a cowboy on the plains for a year and also spent a year or more in the Hawaiian Islands. He has also been a preacher in the Christian denomination.
