Ben Lippen School
Ben Lippen, a Scottish phrase meaning “moun-
tain of trust,” is the name for an evangelical
Christian school for grades Pre-K to 12. Founded
in 1940 by Robert C. McQuilkin, CIU’s first presi-
dent, Ben Lippen continues to strive toward Dr.
McQuilkin’s goal of teaching young people that
there is “life in abundance” (John 10:10) for those
who follow Jesus Christ as Lord. The school is
college preparatory, coeducational, and receives
both resident and day students. The Ben Lippen
family consists of students from a wide range of
cultures and backgrounds. As many as 30 foreign
countries and 25 states have been represented in
a single year. Some students come from homes
of missionaries, pastors and other full-time
Christian workers. Others come from families rep-
resenting all areas of professional and education-
al careers. This “melting pot” of young men and
women offers an educational experience in itself.
The proximity of Ben Lippen School to Columbia
International University provides an opportunity
for convenient Christian schooling for children of
CIU students.
