1949-1950 Academic Catalog

Caravaners.—The Caravaners are young men and women who present re- ligious services in churches in central Ohio. During 1947 the Caravaners became one of the most active of the student organizations. ATHLETICS The college views, health, physical efficiency and recreational activities among the several objectives of higher education. It has therefore made provisions for physical education and athletic activities. Treatment of minor injuries both athletic and general are handled in a well equipped training room in Alford Memorial Gymnasium. Physical education is required of all students during their freshmen and sophomore years, unless specifically excused by the faculty or by the rec­ ommendation of a physician. Activities in these classes are confined to calisthenics, group games, relays and related work. Ample facilities have been provided for athletics including all the indoor and outdoor sports for both men and women. Alford Memorial Gymnasium houses the indoor sports. The College Field contains a regular gridiron around which a 1/4 mile track is proposed. An excellent baseball diamond provides ample playing area for this popular spring sport. Adjacent to the Gym is the women’ s athletic field and the community roque court, one of the finest of its kind. Cedarville College maintains intercollegiate athletic competition in foot­ ball, basketball, baseball and track. Intramural programs are carried on in these activities together with volleyball, horseshoes, ping-pong, tennis and roque. Cedarville College is a member of the Mid-Ohio Intercollegiate Ath­ letic Conference and the National Association of Intercollegiate Basketball. Athletics relations are carried on with the leading colleges in Ohio, Kentucky, Michigan and Indiana. RULES AND REGULATIONS Supervision of Women.—As far as space permits, all women students room- ing in Cedarville during the school year are expected to live in Harriman Hall. If accommodations are not available for all at Harriman Hall, the Dean of Women will assist women students to find rooms in carefully approved private homes. The Housemothers, both in the Dormitory and in private homes where women students may be rooming, cooperate with the Dean in seeing that rules are observed. In the Dormitory, a house-president and a student-government committee assist the Dean and the Housemother. Wom­ en students are expected to be in by nine-thirty o’ clock P. M. except on Fri­ day, Saturday and Sunday nights, when they must be in by ten-thirty. With the written permission of the Dean upper classmen may be out later on Tuesday, Thursday, Friday or Saturday night; Freshmen on Thursday, Fri­ day or Saturday. Other rules affecting students of the College are similar to those in force at the majority of Christian colleges. An advisory system by which each student is encouraged to regard some member of the faculty as his special advisor has recently been inaugurated. This is of benefit, of course, in all aspects of college life and development, and only incidentally as regards the rules for students. 14
