Jack Wood Sears, who joined the Harding faculty in the fall of 1945 as professor of biology and chairman of the department voluntarily retired from active teaching this past August and became emeritus professor of biology. He will serve as a consultant for the department and lecture occasionally, especially in the senior-level course, "The Christian View of Science and Scripture:' He held several important state offices during his active career.
