OBS Dean Attends ABACC Annual Conference

February 24, 2016

Dean of Olivet Business School Dr. John Xiao attended the 57th annual meeting of ABACC (Association of Business Administrators of Christian Colleges) last week in St. Augustine, Florida.

Accompanied by Dr. Barnabas Jung, Chief Finance Officer at Olivet University, Xiao joined peers from across the country to explore opportunities and challenges of Biblical higher education.

"It was a great opportunity for Olivet University to network with other professional Christian educators and improve its business management and operations," Xiao commented after the conference. "We were encouraged to see so many Christian business leaders with passionate enthusiasms about advancing the Kingdom of God through Christian higher education."

The Feb. 16-20 conference featured various seminars and networking events.

ABACC has been serving Christian Higher Education since 1958 with its mission to improve the standard of business management in schools of Christian Higher Education by providing professional development, networking and mutual support to their business leadership.
