1973-1974 Academic Catalog

Student life The college atmosphere is designed for the full development of each student 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, participa– tion in one or more than a dozen campus student groups provide opportunity for social development. Some of these groups sponsor banquets, concerts, and other forms of cultural enjoyment. Standards of Conduct Before any student is enrolled at Cedarville College, he must sign a state– ment signifying his willingness to adhere to the standards and regulations of the college. Students who do not cooperate in maintaining the standards of conduct 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 drugs, the use of cards which are employed in gambling, dancing, at– tendance at movie theaters, membership in secret societies, excessive use of cosmetics, and the wearing of extreme fashions. Students will also be expected to exercise discernment regarding their choice of music. Rules regarding these will be strictly enforced. Students are urged to set aside a definite period each day for private devotions. Regular attendance at student prayer meetings aids the student in maintaining 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 fellow– ship 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 Chris– tian work are stressed.
