1960-1961 Academic Catalog

George S. Milner Chapel This building was constructed by student labor in the summer and fall of 1954 and was dedicated to Mr. George S. Milner, Chairman of the Board of Trustees, who gave gener­ ously for its erection. The Chapel was enlarged in 1959 to pro­ vide increased seating capacity and music facilities. The Chapel will seat about 400 people and is used for all devotional and spiritual exercises of the student body. Housing for Students The college maintains dormitories for both men and women. Rooms are furnished with beds, study tables, dress­ ers, and closet space. Students are required to furnish their own bed linen, blankets, bed spreads, towels, pillows, etc. All students are expected to care for their own rooms, and to keep them presentable for inspection by the Dean of Students or Dormitory Supervisor. College dormitories include Rife Hall, Cedar Hall, and Bethel Hall for men and Faith Hall, Harriman Hall and a new dormi­ tory for women. Coin operated laundry machines are available at the college and in the community. Married students must provide their own living quarters. The college renders all possible assistance in enabling such stu­ dents to find suitable housing. A trailer court is maintained by the college, and space may be rented at the rate of $10.00 per month. This includes water, but electricity and garbage removal are additional. Alford Memorial Gymnasium This structure, erected in 1853, was presented to the col­ lege by Mr. W. J. Alford in memory of his father and mother. It is the oldest building on the campus, having served originally as the assembly hall of the Reformed Presbyterian Church of Cedarville. When the latter’s congregation moved into their new building, the old church was remodeled, enlarged, and con­ verted into a gymnasium by the laying of a basketball floor and the provision of wide tiers of bleacher space on each side. 13
