Founders Day 2015
The University of Mount Olive celebrated 64 years of providing Christian higher education at the University’s annual Founders Day Worship Service on Tuesday. The event featured a conversation between Rose M. Raper, former first lady of Mount Olive College from 1954 to 1995, and Jean F. Ackiss, director of Church Relations, an employee of UMO for the past 50 years. The conversation was moderated by Gary F. Barefoot, curator of the Free Will Baptist Historical Collection/University Archives about their recollections of the University through the past several decades.
