Schreiner University, started as a military institute in 1923, is a landmark institution in the state of Texas. Schreiner at 100 tells the story of the last quarter century of the university's 100 years. The narrative interprets the institutional journey in terms of its enduring traits including a holistic learning commitment, its emphasis on relationships, and the value of outcomes over inputs. Above all, this book tells a story of a tough and resilient little school in the hill country that stands for something while also being flexible enough to weather all the vicissitudes of higher education. Engraved on the entrance of Schreiner University are the phrases "Enter with Hope, Leave with Achievement". This is no mere slogan-this is the ethos of Schreiner University. Filled with vintage photographs and contemporary images of this gorgeous place, Schreiner at 100 leaves readers with a glimpse of an amazing university deep in the heart of Texas.
