- Biographical / historical:
-
On March 23, 1971, the Coalition for Christian Outreach (CCO) was founded. Its mission was to bring various ministries together with a unified vision to minister to college students in cooperation with local churches. The unofficial relationship between Fuller Theological Seminary and the Coalition for Christian Outreach began in the fall of 1977. The coalition had a long-standing relationship with the Young Life Campaign in the Pittsburgh area and was aware of the institute for Youth Ministries Program. The CCO thought its training program was academically solid and might qualify to receive seminary credit. Therefore, Robert Long, CCO Director, contacted Dr. Glenn Barker, Provost and acting Dean of Fuller Theological Seminary, a former professor of his at Gordon-Conwell Seminary, to seek advice. Dr. Barker suggested that Fuller would be willing to work with the CCO and started discussions of a collaborative effort in the spring of 1978.
