Bay View College Flourished before Closing 100 Years Ago

Murphy Givens, retired editor of Corpus Christi's The Caller Times authored two fascinating articles this past week on Bay View College.  Bay View opened in 1894 and ultimately closed one hundred years ago in 1917. 

The articles reflect Givens' talent as a story teller as he weaves together information about the founding of the institution and its importance to the region.
The first article, "Bay View College opened in hard times," was published on December 12, 2017.  It was followed on December 15, 2017 by "Portland's Bay View College closed 100 years ago."
