In August 1968, President Hudson T. Amerding ’41 discussed with Director of HoneyRock Harvey Chrouser ’34 the need for freshmen to have a positive program for transitioning into college. A year later, in 1969, Chrouser and Bud Williams M.A. ’66 launched "Vanguard," a wilderness program intended to help new students discover more about God and themselves. Since 1969, the program has gone by three names: Vanguard, High Road, and Wheaton Passage.

Pictured here is a schedule from the 1984 High Road program.
