White, William (G.), 1947-2009

 Person

William G. White, 1947-2009, was an educator who earned a masters degree from Andrews University in history. He worked at Andrews Academy for a few years and later as a professor of educational leadership at a university in Louisiana. One of White’s research interests was the issue of academic accreditation for Seventh-day Adventist colleges in North America in the years following World War I. There was controversy at that time within the denomination over whether “our” schools should strive for accreditation by state and regional accrediting agencies. Over time those supportive of the concept won. White’s research looks at this debate and those issues associated with it. He produced a book length manuscript which he submitted for publication by the Andrews University Press, but it was returned for more work. That work was not completed before his unexpected death.
