1969-1970 Academic Catalog

The college atmosphere is designed for the full development of each stu– dent in his spiritual, academic, physical, and social life. The fundamental Biblical position establishes a conservative pattern for all activities and con– duct. Students gain excellent practical experience in Christian service as they participate in musical groups; teach Sunday School classes; conduct hospital, mission, and jail services; teach Bible clubs; and serve on gospel teams. Social life at Cedarville provides an outlet from the demands and pres– sures of college life. Our scenic 100-acre campus provides students with ample room to relax, study, and enjoy the fellowship of other Christian young people. As well as developing academically and spiritually, the student is helped to adjust socially by participating in one of more than a dozen student groups that are active on campus. Some of these groups sponsor banquets, concerts, and other forms of cultural enjoyment. The college Speech Department provides instruction and supervision for debate, dramatics, radio broadcasting, and other activities of special value to students entering the ministry or other areas of Christian service. The Music, Christian Education, and Biblical Education Departments also provide instruction directly related to the ministry and full-time Christian work in the program of the local church. STANDARDS OF CONDUCT Before any student is enrolled at Cedarville College, he must sign a state– ment signifying his willingness to abide by the rules and regulations of the college. Students who do not cooperate in maintaining the standards of con– duct established by the college may be requested to withdraw. This applies to conduct while at college and also at home or off the campus. Certain types of conduct are positively forbidden. Among these are the use of tobacco in any form, alcoholic beverages, the non-medical use of narcotic drugs, the use of cards which are employed in gambling, dancing, attendance at movie theaters, membership in secret societies, excessive use of cosmetics, and the wearing of extreme fashions. Rules regarding these will be strictly enforced. Students are urged to set aside a de.finite period each day for private devo– tions. Regular attendance at student prayer meetings aids the student in main– taining a healthful spiritual life. All students are required to attend church services regularly.
