Description

“He made a pretty good argument for Christianity” is the best characterization of John Hutcheson's life. He established the Department of Art in 1958 and was its chair from 1962 until his untimely death in 1986, serving several years as the college’s only art instructor. The quality of his scholarship and instructional approach was widely recognized, but he was distinguished by an unusual devotion to the personal and spiritual growth of his students outside the classroom. He was an elder at Granny White church of Christ and preached for the church in Schochoh, Kentucky. In all, his only goal was to glorify God. He succeeded.
