Abstract

The expansion of the Mabee Business building created spaces conducive for classroom instruction, group meetings, and student and faculty interaction, along with state-of-the-art technology to aid in the learning process.

Paul R. Carter began his service on the Harding board of trustees in 1985, continuing for 25 years until his death in October 2009. Whenever he had the opportunity to speak, he would often quote his favorite poem, and we believe it is representative of the way he lived his life.
Build a Better World
God said build a better world, and I said how?
The world is such a cold dark place and so complicated now.
And I, so young and useless, there's nothing I can do.
And, God in all his wisdom said, just build a better you.
