In his website's reproduction of Chapter 6 of John Tuit's book, The Truth Shall Set You Free, Keith Hunt has inserted the comment shown below. This chapter discusses the release of the second issue of the Ambassador Report. After John Tuit discusses the infamous Manpower Papers Keith Hunt inserts this comment.
(You think the above "screening" was the invention of AR [Ambassador Report] ... well it was NOT, listen to this. As a young guy in the WCG, I had a friend (a young guy also) who was accepted to AC (Ambassador College) - two years later he returned to the town where I was and called me on the phone and wanted to speak to me in person. We met. This is the story he related: He had fallen in love with a young lady in AC and she with him. Rod Meredith and company pulled him into their office and told him that he must have nothing to do with her as he was NOT ministerial quality, but she was the quality to be a minister's wife. He was shattered. What could I tell him, there was nothing he could do; obviously she was not about to leave AC and both of them go off and get married. I never saw my friend again - Keith Hunt)Once again here is more evidence of the abusive behavior that appears to have been so common within HWA's WCG.
At AC in Pasadena, each year, students who had developed "understandings" amongst themselves (underclassmen who agreed they would get married after graduation) were often separated, one member having been transferred to Bricket Wood or Big Sandy. It was a shocking thing in their young lives, and no appeal or due process. The alternative was to leave college and probably the church as well. The students went along with it.
