From Crisis to a Promising Future is a fascinating story told by Dr. Jack Tichenor to Professor Jane Tichenor about how a college in crisis became a thriving university. When Jack Tichenor arrived at Oakland City College, he soon learned the task that lay before him was not going to be an easy one. The College needed a miracle to survive, and he was destined to help make that miracle happen. He, along with many others, sacrificed his time and resources to benefit a college he loved dearly. It wasn't easy, and many times he wondered how the College could survive, but God came through every time and provided what was needed just in the nick of time.
