2000-2001 Annual Report

Expression through the Arts An array of fine arts events once again filled the University’s calender, giving students God-honoring social outlets. The orchestra, brass choir, jazz band, symphonic band, pep band, concert chorale, Jubilaté (mixed ensemble), men’s glee club, and women’s choir lent their talents to the praise and worship of Christ. Students worked together to produce the theatre productions Smoke on the Mountain , Lost in Yonkers , and Pirates of Penzance . And visiting performers, ranging from classical musicians to contemporary singers, offered students a chance to enjoy the talents of experienced professionals. Social Activities With its lounges, dining hall, and game room, the Stevens Student Center has become a prime social hub on campus. The Hive (a snack shop located within the Center) provides a great place for students to socialize. Recognized Support of Students The National Survey of Student Engagement ranked Cedarville with the best institutions of higher learning in the nation. Cedarville’s ratings were among the highest in areas such as helping students cope with non-academic responsibilities and providing support they need to thrive socially. Cedarville’s rating from first-year students on providing a “supportive campus environment” was the highest in the nation. A friend loves at all times, and a brother is born for adversity.
