Early life and educationGardner 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 legacyGardner 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.
