  • Description: [...]the inspiration of Babcock's example combined with the support of Jean and other friends and family members to launch Bowie into his seminary education.3 When Walter Russell Bowie first arrived in Alexandria, he hardly seemed to be a typical student. [...]Hall, like other Union professors, encouraged a rigorous pursuit of truth unhampered by preconceptions, creeds, and dogma and affirmed a confidence that Christian faith could provide vital answers in the face of contemporary science and social problems. [...]the courses revolved around a loosely structured series of experiences that acquainted students with urban problems and religious activities within working-class neighborhoods. [...]he did not enjoy the same large sense of camaraderie that he prized at Virginia Seminary.
