1962-1963 Academic Catalog

Freshman Week In order to give Freshmen an opportunity to adjust them– selves to their new surroundings, the college sets aside a period at the beginning of the fall semester for the reception and registration of Freshmen. During these days the Freshmen be– come acquainted with the campus and the facilities provided for their instruction and welfare. Selected upper classmen and members of the faculty greet the new students and assist them in adapting to student life. During this period, placement tests in English, a test of mental maturity, The College Qualification Test, a reading test and a test in listening, are given to all entering Freshmen. These tests must be taken before a student can fully complete registration. Intercollegiate and Intramural Sports Cedarville College maintains intercollegiate athletic com– petition in basketball, baseball, track, tennis, and golf.
