Robert Wayne Gardner (1894-?) was a minister, an academic, and the president of the Eastern Nazarene College.

Early life and education

Gardner was born in Tidioute, Pennsylvania on May 16, 1894.[1] He earned his bachelor's degree from Olivet College[2] and was ordained in the Church of the Nazarene in 1918.[1] Upon moving to Eastern Nazarene in Quincy, he started his master's degree from Boston University, which he finished in 1924.[1] He was awarded an honorary doctorate by alma mater Olivet College in 1934.[3]

Career and legacy

Gardner went to Quincy, Massachusetts to become the principal of the Eastern Nazarene Academy and began teaching at the Eastern Nazarene College in 1920.[2] During his time there, he became the college registrar[4] and, upon the death of Floyd W. Nease, became president of the college.[5] He resigned in 1936 after collapsing from the strain of operating the college during the Great Depression.[6] He eventually earned a doctorate.[7] In 1951, Gardner joined the faculty of alma mater Olivet Nazarene College.[8]

There is today an "R. Wayne Gardner Memorial Scholarship in Mathematics" at Point Loma Nazarene University[9] and a "Dr. R. Wayne and Elizabeth Young Gardner Scholarship" for ministerial and mathematics students at the Eastern Nazarene College.[10] In addition, the Fowler Memorial Administration Building at Eastern Nazarene was renamed "Gardner Hall" in his honor.
