Crabtree Family Life Chapel Series
Each year we host the Crabtree Family Life Lecture Series in chapel, a series endowed by T. T. Crabtree in 1999 in honor of his wife, Bennie Cole Crabtree, whom he met while they were both students at Â鶹ÊÓƵ in 1946. The purpose of the lecture series is to help students think more clearly and biblically about relationships and family life.
