See Education and Life in the Proper Perspective "Man does not live by bread alone."
Dear Friends: Life is made up of a series of important decisions. One of the most critical is the selection of a college. This is of particular importance to one who is a Christian; for he must not only prepare for his chosen profession, but also a lifetime of Christian service. Because Cedarville College accepts the Biblical principle that in Christ "are hid all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge," our faculty encourages the student to understand that all truth is related to Him. A college which ignores or denies this principle is unprepared to relate the curriculum to the truth as it is in Christ. As a Christian college of arts and sciences, we are vitally concerned about the development of the students; not only intellectually, but also socially and spiritually. Our curriculum is thorougbly Bible-oriented and Christ-centered. This is emphasized in the daily chapel services, through the study of required Bible courses, participation in campus organizations, and in the Christian service program. Cedarville is a Baptist college, and as such is supported by our churches as a college for all Christian young people, regardless of their denominational affiliation. It has been, and will continue to be, our plan to encourage our students and graduates to serve with wholehearted commitment in the local churches. As you read the following pages we sincerely hope you will find Cedarville College to be as exciting and challenging as it is to those of us who serve here. Each member of our faculty and staff is ready to help you now by providing additional information to answer your questions; as well as in the future, if you become one of our students. JAMES T. JEREMIAH President of the College

e Cedarville College is a Baptist college of arts and sciences enrolling 925 students. A balanced liberal arts program is coupled with an evangelical, con– servative theological position in regard to doctrine and patterns of conduct. In keeping with the liberal arts concept, the curriculum provides for a broad background of general studies combined with a thorough study of the Bible followed by concentrated study in a major field selected by the student in keeping with his area of interest, ability, and professional goals. All classes are taught by dedicated Christian professors who present the knowledge found in the respective courses integrated with Biblical Christian perspectives. ADVENTURE IN LEARNING The challenge and adventure to be found in the pursuit of knowledge is real and demanding. Young people who are vitally interested in discovering new subjects, concepts, methods and materials will find professionally pre– pared instructors anxious to share and impart knowledge to all who are interested in this dynamic educational adventure. Personal development will also result if the student's goals and moral philosophy are clearly defined. Great profit can come from exploring new fields of knowledge if there is evidence of Christian commitment, direction and purpose. The pattern of instruction at Cedarville College includes a basic program of general studies including Biblical education, communication, humanities, physical education, science, mathematics, and social science. In addition, each student will complete a major in the area of his interest. The usual pattern of educational experience involves the pursuit of general studies during the first two years in college, followed by completion of the require– ments for the major which is closely related to career goals. Although the years at Cedarville College represent a concentrated educa– tional experience in pursuit of the baccalaureate degree, it is understood also to be the beginning of a lifelong adventure in learning. All professions require constant reading and study to keep abreast of new developments in the field. The professional person who studies diligently to keep up with current practice is usually recognized as a leader in his profession. Along with the respect that is engendered, the Christian college graduate is called upon to exercise a leadership role not only in a professional way, but also in the local church. The administration, faculty and staff are committed to helping the student achieve these goals. The money and effort invested in education at Cedarville can pay high dividends throughout life.
6 CEDARVILLE COLLEGE PURPOSE: The purpose of Cedarville College, a Baptist college of arts and sciences, is to offer its students an education consistent with Biblical truth. To achieve this purpose the college seeks to accomplish the following ob– jectives: 1. To undergird the student in the fundamentals of the Christian faith, and to stimulate him to evaluate knowledge in the light of Scriptural truth. 2. To encourage growth in Christian character in each student, and help the student accept his responsibility in faithful Christian service. 3. To increase the student's awareness of the world of ideas and events which have produced and are influencing our contemporary culture. 4. To offer opportunities for academic specialization and preparation for graduate study. 5. To assist the student in selecting and preparing for a vocation. 6. To prepare the student to participate constructively in our democratic society. 7. To foster the student's appreciation of and participation in wholesome avocational and cultural activities. Cedarville includes as one of its primary functions the training of public school and Christian day school teachers. HISTORY Cedarville College has had a rich heritage. It was established by the Re– formed Presbyterian Church and individuals who had a vital interest in the spiritual welfare of young people. The college was chartered by the State of Ohio on January 26, 1887. During the early days, as now, Christian principles and conduct were stressed as indicated by the following quotation from a former president, "Above all, Cedarville College believes that culture of the mind without the nurture and growth of spiritual life is a mistake. Education without morality is a menace to the state. . accordingly the Bible is a textbook of the college." In 1953 the operation of the college was transferred to the Trustees of Baptist Bible Institute of Cleveland with the goal of enlarging the institute's ministry. The name, Cedarville College, was retained. The college, now an approved school of the General Association of Regular Baptist Churches, con– tinues to perpetuate the original purpose of its founders. Under the direction of Dr. James T. Jeremiah, president since 1954, the college has experienced phenomenal growth. Since 1959 student enrollment has more than tripled in size. Because of this sudden increase in enrollment, Cedarville College has been forced to greatly expand both its faculty and facilities.
During this period of dramatic growth in students, faculty, and facilities, the objectives which have symbolized the college and its spirit through the years have been further strengthened. The tower of "Old Main" represents our link with the past, its foundations and traditions; the cedars symbolize life and growth. The Cedarville College family feels that this growth has brought us to the threshold of an even greater ministry as the college moves ahead with new faith and vision. RECOGNITION CERTIFICATION AND ACCREDITATION Cedarville College is a four-year degree granting institution chartered by the State of Ohio. The college has also been approved by the State Depart– ment of Education for the education, training and certification of both ele– mentary and secondary school teachers. The administration and faculty are currently working diligently on a col– lege self-study program in preparation for making application for 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. ""To secure listing, officials of three universities must state that they will accept Cedarville College credits as coming from an accredited college.
8 CEDARVILLE COLLEGE THE CAMPUS Each year selected campus facilities are improved to provide better student housing, food service, instruction and recreational facilities. To keep abreast of the steady 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 196768 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. LOCATION The natural beauty of the gentle rolling countryside provides an excellent setting. Cedarville College is conveniently located in the rural community of Cedarville, Ohio, which is near a large metropolitan area of one-half million people. The college-centered community is within easy driving distance of beautiful state parks, as well as large and medium sized cities such as Co– lumbus, Dayton, Springfield, Cincinnati and Xenia. The students find excellent opportunities for worship, practical Christian service, and employment in all of the communities in the area. Cedarville is conveniently located near the center of what the gover– nor of Ohio calls the golden tri.angle formed by 1-70, 1-71 and 1-75. ADMINISTRATION BUILDING "Old Main," constructed in 1895, is the original college building. Renova– tion of the exterior and interior of the building is in process. This building houses all administrative offices, some faculty offices, and classrooms.
THE COLLEGE 9 MILNER HALL This building was constructed by student labor in the summer and fall of 1954 and was dedicated to Dr. George S. Milner, Chairman of the Board of Trustees, who gave generously for its erection. The building was enlarged in 1959, and currently houses the college bookstore, the Business Administration Department, faculty offices and practice rooms. RESIDENCE HALLS The college maintains residence halls for both men and women. Maddox Hall is the largest dormitory at Cedarville. It is the campus home for 220 girls. The other residence halls are Bethel, Faith, Harriman, Patterson, West Hall, Williams and the Cedar Park apartments. All students under twenty-five years of age who are not living at home must live in college owned or approved residence quarters. All arrangements for off-campus housing are made by the Student Personnel office. Married students must provide their own living quarters. The college assists these students in finding suitable housing. THE LIBRARY The new library is an attractive, one story, air-conditioned structure located near the center of the campus, as shown in the revised ten-year master plan for campus development. This beautiful and functional building makes possible a number of important library services, utilizing a variety of new educational media, for both students and faculty. The library houses approximately 45,000 volumes, plus many other edu– cational aids such as microfilms, recordings, tapes, film strips, slides, and art prints. Along with these instructional aids the library has available tape re– cordings, projectors, record players, and other similar equipment. The new library has a media auditorium which will seat one hundred and several smaller rooms for seminars, conferences, committees, and workshops. There are six small multi-purpose listening and recording rooms where stu– dents may preview records, make tapes of speeches, or similar assignments. There is also a faculty research and study room where professional refer– ence books are available.
10 CEDARVILLE COLLEGE SCIENCE HALL Erected in 1922, Science Hall contains laboratories and classrooms for the physical and biological sciences. The college architect and science faculty have developed plans for the remodeling and expansion of the science facilities as a part of the Three To Grow On campus improvement program. FINE ARTS BUILDING The former library has been reconditioned to provide instructional facili– ties for classes in the fine arts such as art and music. The Music Department will continue to use Ambassador Hall for individualized music instruction and for small groups. Practice rooms are also located in Milner Hall. ALFORD MEMORIAL AUDITORIUM This structure, erected in 1853, was presented to the college 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 Pres– byterian Church of Cedarville. The interior has recently been extensively redecorated and refurbished for use as the college chapel, for dramatic produc– tions, and for artist series activities. GYMNASIUM-STUDENT CENTER Completed in 1963, this building provides excellent facilities for physical education, intramural and varsity basketball contests. The gymnasium seats over 1,200 spectators for varsity basketball contests. The student center in– cludes a snack shop, lounge, large classrooms, and cafeteria. COMMUNICATIONS BUILDING The college post office, the print shop, and radio station WCDR-FM are located in the communications building. WCDR-FM broadcasts educational programs and the Gospel Message to people within the listening range of 50 miles. Speech students gain excellent experience and training as they handle much of the work involved in operating WCDR-FM. EXPANSION AHEAD The college Administration and the Board of Trustees are planning for the future. In late 1962, the Trustees approved the purchase of an adjacent eighty-acre farm and its buildings as one part of the expansion plan. A mas– ter development plan has been prepared to effectively utilize the enlarged campus area of over 105 acres. As money becomes available, new buildings will be added to accommodate a substantially larger enrollment.
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 105-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 definite 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.
CHAPEL The students and faculty meet together each day for worship and fellowship in a chapel service. Every student is required to attend. Faculty members, visiting pastors, educators, evangelists, and missionaries serve as speakers for these programs. Praise, prayer, worship, and practical Christian work are stressed. NEW STUDENT ORIENTATION In order to give new students an opportunity to adjust to their new surroundings, the college sets aside a period at the beginning of the autumn quarter for reception, registration, and orientation. During these days, the new students become acquainted with the campus and the facilities provided for their instruction and welfare. Selected upperclassmen and members of the faculty greet and assist them in adapting to student life. During this period, tests in mental maturity, and personality characteristics are given to all new students. These tests must be taken before a new student can complete registration.
STUDENT LIFE 13 CHRISTIAN SERVICE Every student is encouraged to participate in some area of Christian service for at least two of the four years of the college program. It is the belief of the college administration and faculty that this experience provides a vital means of achieving the stated objectives of the purpose of the college. There are opportunities for experience and service in local church ministry, in homes for orphans, the indigent and the infirm, penal institutions, cor– respondence with missionary personnel, open air meetings, children's meet– ings in private homes, and religious surveys. The Director of Christian Service is responsible for the assignment of students who register for all kinds of Christian service work. He is also responsible for Sunday services on campus, prayer meetings, student service teams and pastoral counseling. The Christian Service committee, made up of both faculty and students, works with the Director in defining the types of activities as well as estab– lishing guidelines for the entire Christian Service program. DEVOTIONAL In addition to private devotions and weekly dormitory prayer meetings, half-hour mission prayer meetings are conducted each morning before the beginning of classes. Two days are designated each year as days of prayer. A series of Bible lectures or a missionary conference is scheduled each quarter. SOCIAL AND CULTURAL ACTIVITIES A variety of social events under the direction of the Student Affairs Com– mittee provide wholesome fellowship for the students. Semi-formal dinners, parties, talent programs, and various types of concerts and cultural programs are prov~ded. DRAMA Each year the students, under the direction of a member of the Speech Department, present several major theatrical productions. These are an im– portant part of the college's program of personality and cultural development. Those who participate in these productions become eligible for election to the college's drama workshop group, The Village Players. MUSICAL ORGANIZATIONS Students with musical talents have many opportunmes to participate in college musical programs, gospel teams, College Choir, Choralaires, Marching and Concert Bands, and vocal and instrumental ensembles. A pep band performs at athletic contests.
14 CEDARVILLE COLLEGE STUDENT COUNCIL The Student Council is the representative assembly of the student body. Its officers are elected annually by the student body. The Council, in addition to its officers, includes two representatives from each class, one representative from each official campus organization, and a faculty advisor. The purpose of the Student Council is to assist in providing a well-rounded program of extracurricular activities which will help to develop the physical, mental, social, and spiritual life of the students, to inspire loyalty to the school and the principles for which it stands, to promote an efficient and harmonious school life, and to recommend to the proper authorities any action which it deems wise for the welfare of the student as an individual or for the student body as a whole.

Approximately twenty-five students assist in the operation of WCDR-FM annually. HOUSING FOR STUDENTS The college maintains residence facilities for both men and women. Rooms are furnished with basic items of furniture, but students must supply their own pillows, bedding, and room accessories. Students care for the cleaning of their own rooms. Coin-operated laundry facilities are available in some of the residence halls and in the community. Linens may be leased from a linen service company on a quarter or year basis.

USE OF CARS Studies have demonstrated that there is a close correlation between low grades and the possession and use of a car by college students. Therefore, all unnecessary use of cars is discouraged. Freshmen will not be permitted to use or bring a motor vehicle with them to college during their first quarter at Cedarville. They may have and use a motor vehicle during the second quarter if they achieve a 2.75 or better grade point average at the end of the first quarter, or during the third quarter if they have a 2.50 cumulative average at the end of the second quarter. Sophomores with less than a 2.00 cumulative average will not be able to have or use a motor vehicle at Cedarville.

In order to keep a car at college, a single student under twenty-one years of age must present written permission from his parents to the Dean of Stu– dents. All students must give the amount of public liability and property damage insurance. No exceptions will be allowed.

24 CEDARVILLE COLLEGE DEFERRED PAYMENT PLAN A service charge of $10 will be assessed for the use of the deferred payment plan. This charge will be made at the beginning of the quarter in which the plan is chosen. One-third of the total bill will be due on registration day. The remainder to be deferred will be due before .final examinations. A service charge of 1% will be charged monthly on unpaid balances. It is expected that most students will pay cash in advance for all quarter costs-the best and most economical way to take care of college expenses. WITHDRAWAL REFUNDS If a student withdraws from college before the end of the quarter, refunds on tuition may be granted three days after application for refund has been filed with the Business office. Although applications may be sub– mitted any time after the opening of a given quarter, processing of such applications will not begin until two weeks of the quarter have elapsed. Refunds for withdrawal from school or individual courses are granted on the following basis: First two days of the quarter First full calendar week or less .... Second full calendar week or less .. Third full calendar week or less Fourth full calendar week or less . Over four full calendar weeks ..... 100% ....... 90% ......75% ..... 50% .25% ...............No Refund Students withdrawing from a course or courses and adding a differing course or courses shall be granted refund according to the above schedule. Refunds on course withdrawals are determined according to the date the withdrawal forms are .filed in the Registrar's office; college withdrawals are effective on the last day of residency. If course offerings are changed by the faculty or administration, the student is entitled to a full refund for that class. No refunds on room rent will be given except for withdrawal because of illness or other reasons beyond the control of the student. Board is refunded on a pro rata basis. No refund on any fees is allowed. FOREIGN STUDENTS A limited number of foreign students may enroll. Cedarville College is approved for attendance by non-immigrants by the Immigration and Natur– alization Service. All foreign students are required to deposit $1500 in United States currency before they can be admitted. Permission for em– ployment must be secured from the United States Government.
ADMISSION AND FINANCES STUDENT AID Many students need assistance in meeting educational costs. Since financial need is one of the factors considered in awarding aid, each single student desiring financial aid in the form of a scholarship or loan, underwritten by the college, must submit a Parent's Confidential State– ment through the College Scholarships Service or a Family Financial State– ment through the Financial Aid Services of The American College Testing Program, Inc. These forms may be secured from a high school guidance counselor or the Student Financial Aid office. Students anticipating financial need should have these forms completed by their parents at least six months prior to the time that they will need to secure aid funds. Application for any aid must be made well in advance of the anticipated need. All requests for student aid are handled by the Director of Financial Aid. SCHOLARSHIPS AND GRANTS Academic scholarships are available to students who have demonstrated academic ability and a definite financial need. These scholarships are for varying amounts and also provide an opportunity of employment with the college. The scholarships are awarded on an annual basis with a minimum of a 3.0 academic average required for renewal. Christian character, service, and co– operation are also considered in awarding these scholarships. Athletic grants-in-aid are available for qualified athletes. Inquiries should be addressed to the Athletic Director. Students who are residents of Ohio and who are from lower income fam– ilies or ·families with several dependent children may be eligible for a state tuition grant. The high school guidance counselor or the Director of Finan– cial Aid can give you the details on qualifications and application process. EDUCATIONAL OPPORTUNITY GRANTS The Federal government provides, through the U.S. Office of Education, funds for a limited number of students with exceptional financial need, who require these grants to attend college, and who show academic or creative promise. Grants range from $300 to $1,000 a year and must be supplemented by at least an equal amount of other assistance to the student. The amount of financial assistance a student may receive under an Educa– tional Opportunity Grant depends upon his need, taking into account his financial resources, those of his parents, and the cost qf attending Cedarville.
26 CEDARVILLE COLLEGE NATIONAL DEFENSE STUDENT LOANS Under authorization of the National Defense Education Act, Cedarville College has created a National Defense Student Loan Fund in cooperation with the federal government. Under the provisions of this act a qualified student may borrow in any one year a sum not exceeding $1,000 and during his entire course he may borrow a sum not exceeding $5,000. Eligibility. In general the same conditions of eligibility that govern the regular student aid program at Cedarville College apply to the National De– fense Student Loan Fund. The most essential condition of an applicant's eligibility for a National Defense Student Loan is that he be in need of the required loan in order to pursue his course of study during the period for which the application is made. Terms. The National Defense Education Act provides that the borrower must sign a promissory note for his loan. The repayment period and the interest do not begin until nine months after the student ends his studies. Loans bear interest at the rate of three per cent per year and repayment of the principal may be extended over a period of ten years, except that a mini– mum monthly payment of $15 is required. Repayment may be deferred up to a total of three years while a borrower is serving in the Armed Forces, with the Peace Corps, or as a Volunteer in Service to America (VISTA). Repayment is deferred for as long as a bor– rower is enrolled at an institution of higher education and is carrying at least a half-time academic work load. Partial Cancellation. If a borrower becomes a full-time teacher in an elementary or secondary school or in an institution of higher education, as much as one-half of the loan may be forgiven at the rate of 10 per cent for each year of teaching service. Borrowers who elect to teach in certain schools located in areas composed primarily of low-income families may qualify for cancellation of their entire obligation at the rate .of 15 per cent per year. STUDENT EMPLOYMENT Although not able to guarantee employment, Cedarville College assists needy students by recommending them for part-time employment, both on the campus and in surrounding communities. The college has students employed in various part-time jobs on campus. These opportunities include work such as campus maintenance, cafeteria, housekeeping, laboratory, library, office, and printshop assistants. Employment also has been secured in the surrounding area in retail stores, factories, offices, on farms, and work for private individuals.
ADMISSION AND FINANCES 27 Part-time work is important not only for financial assistance but also for providing practical job training for the student. The experience gained from these jobs is useful when the student leaves the college to apply for full-time employment. Although part-time student employment is not restricted to upperclassmen, freshmen should work only in the case of necessity. At least the first quarter of the freshman year should be devoted to study and to adjustment to college life. Students who must work more than 20 hours a week should not plan to carry a full load of classroom work. STUDENT INSURANCE All full-time students are required to carry the college accident insurance which is part of the Health Service fee. Students who are covered by some hospitalization plan where they work or through some member of their family may waive the hospitalization portion of the college insurance pro– gram and thus substantially reduce the Health Service fee. Part-time students, not eligible for the insurance program, must pay a special health service fee if they wish to use the college health services.
28 CEDARVILLE COLLEGE BANK LOANS Loans are available to Cedarville College students through the United Student Aid Funds, Inc., and most state guaranteed loan programs. All of these loan programs are arranged through local banks for specified interest rates and are repayable after graduation. Listing of the college in the Direc– tory of Higher Education published by the United States Department of Ed– ucation makes available the payment of interest by the federal government on loans secured through local banks under the various state or private loan programs. National Defense Student Loans are available through the college to stu– dents who are citizens of the United States and who can demonstrate financial need to meet educational expenses. Detailed information and application forms are available from the Director of Financial Aid. There are specialized loan funds available to students who meet the proper qualifications such as the McChesney Memorial Loan Fund for residents of Greene County, Ohio, the Bancroft Loan Fund for missionary candidates, the Polly Leunk Memorial Fund, and the JEC Memorial Fund. A very limited amount of money is available to students with special needs through the college Student Aid Fund. Other education loan programs may be available through local banks or specific organizations. High school guidance counselors can give you infor– mation concerning these. Farm children can arrange educational loans through their local Production Credit Association office. The Director of Financial Aid can supply information concerning the above loans as to banks servicing these loans and specialized qualifications. COMMERCIAL PAYMENT PLANS FOR EDUCATIONAL COSTS This plan enables students and parents to pay education expenses in monthly installments. Low cost deferred payment programs are available through nationwide organizations specializing in education financing. All plans include insurance on the life of the parent and the student, total and permanent disability insurance on the parent, plus trust admin– istration in event of the parents' death or disability. Agreements may be written to cover all costs payable to the school over a four-year period in amounts up to $14,000. Parents desiring further information concerning these deferred payment plans should write the Business Office, Education Funds, Inc., 10 Dorrance Street, Providence, Rhode Island 02901, or Funds for Education, Inc., 319 Lincoln Street, Manchester, New Hampshire 03103.
