THE COLLEGE 7 RECOGNITION CERTIFICATION AND ACCREDITATION The college has been approved by the State Department of Education for the training and certification of elementary school teachers. The admin– istration and education faculty are working diligently to secure similar ap– proval for the secondary curriculum. Until such approval is secured students seeking certification in secondary education may continue to take certain required courses from Central State University which is located just four miles from Cedarville. The college is currently working toward regional accreditation under the North Central Association of Colleges and Secondary Schools. Cedarville holds membership in the Ohio College Association, the Council for the Advancement of small Colleges, the Association of Approved Schools of the General Association of Regular Baptist Churches, and is approved for listing in the Higher Education Directory* published by the Office of Edu– cation, United States Department of Health Education and Welfare. THE CAMPUS Each year the campus facilities are improved and enlarged to provide better student housing, food service, instruction and recreational activities. To keep abreast of the rapid increase in enrollment, facilities have been added or improved each year, and the old buildings have been remodeled and refurbished for more effective use. A new library and large girls' dormitory were opened during the 1967- 68 school year. Both of these facilities contribute substantially to instruc– tional and housing needs. When the new library was opened, the vacated building was refurbished and used for classes in the fine arts. (See dia– gram of the Campus Development Program on the inside of back cover) .
