Former Oakwood President Dies
Gerald J.

Millet, 95, was president of Oakwood College from 1954 to 1963, a period in which enrollment doubled, the number of faculty increased to 55, and 13 new buildings were constructed. In 1970, he was the first African-American elected in the church's education department, and in 1990 he was awarded the department's highest honor, the Medallion of Honor.

OOPS!
In the October "Did You Know" section of the GLEANER we mistakenly attributed a quote from the Apocryphal book of Ecclesiasticus, to the scriptural book of Ecclesiastes. Instead of reading "Ecclesiastes 38:4" (which does not exist), it should have read "Ecclesiasticus 38:4."
