1973-1974 Academic Catalog

Student Life 13 Community Service Alpha Chi includes men who serve both the college and the community with an ambulance service as well as disaster relief. They maintain a Red Cross Disaster Van, given to them by the American National Red Cross, with whom they work closely. All squad members receive standard and advanced first aid training which prepares them for their duties on the squad as well as for the future. Counseling Services The administration, faculty, and student personnel staff members enjoy a unique personal relationship with individual students and experience meaningful counseling relationships with them. Immediately prior to the beginning of each quarter new students are required to participate in an orientation program designed to acquaint them with campus life and to provide an opportunity for course selection and program planning with the assistance of an assigned faculty advisor. Professional counseling personnel work closely with the staff of the Health Center, Residence Hall personnel, the Christian Service Director, and mem– bers of the faculty and staff to assist students in making their college experi– ence as enriching and meaningful as possible. Musical Organizations Students with musical talents have many opportunities to participate in college musical programs, gospel teams, Concert Choir, Choralaires, March– ing and Symphonic Bands, Brass Choir, Symphonic Orchestra, and vocal and instrumental ensembles. A pep band performs at athletic contests. 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 addi– tion to its officers, includes two representatives from each class, one rep– resentative 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. Election to the Student Council provides an opportunity to exercise democratic leadership in student affairs. The Student Council is responsible for the supervision of the student body proj– ect, the student missionary project, and an occasional chapel program.
