Though it is unusual for such an act, this college catalogue is dedicated to the man who has led Cedarvi Ile College for over twenty years. Accepting the position of president in November, 1953, Dr. James T. Jeremiah has administered the growth of this Christian liberal arts college from ten faculty members and 105 students to over sixty faculty members and 1000 students. The original nine buildings on fifteen acres have expanded to nineteen buildings on 105 acres, and the ever-increasing quality of Cedar– ville College's programs has been commensurate. Constantly speaking in churches, preparing his daily radio broadcast, serving on the Council of Eighteen of the G.A.R.B.C., in addition to administering the affairs of ~edarville College, Dr. Jeremiah's days are busy. But he has fostered within the college community personal commitment to the individual student's per– sonal needs as each seeks to integrate his spiritual, academic, social, and physical lives~ to find God's truth wherever it may be. Having pastored churches in New York and Ohio, Dr. Jeremiah's personal commitment has been to the Christian college as an arm of the local, Bible-centered church, preparing students to carry on the work of communicating "the Word of God and ... the testi– mony of Jesus Christ."

The College 5 Cedarville College is a Baptist college of arts and sciences enrolling about 1000 students. A balanced liberal arts program is coupled with an evangelical, conservative theological position in regard to doctrine and patterns of conduct. In keeping with the liberal arts concept, the curric– ulum 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 goal~. All classes are taught by dedicated Christian professors who present the knowledge found in the respective courses integrated with Biblical Christian perspectives. Adventure In The challenge and adventure to be found in the pursuit of knowledge is real and demanding. Young people who are vitally interested in dis– covering new subjects, concepts, methods and materials will find profes– sionally prepared 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 pro– gram of general studies including Biblical education, communication, humanities, physical education, science, mathematics, and social sci– ence. 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 requirements for the major which is closely related to career goals. Although the years at Cedarvi lie College represent a concentrated educational experience in pursuit of the baccalaureate degree, it is un– derstood 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 dili– gently to keep up with current practice is usually recognized as a leader in his profession. Along with the respect that is engendered, the Christi– an 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
6 Cedarville College goals. The money and effort invested in education at Cedarville can pay high dividends throughout life. Purpose: The purpose of Cedarville College, a Baptist college of arts and sci– ences, is to offer its students an education consistent with Biblical truth. To achieve this purpose the college seeks to accomplish the following objectives: 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 are influencing our contemporary culture and to prepare the student to knowledgeably participate in our demo– cratic society. 4. To enable the student to develop sound critical and analytical reasoning. 5. To provide sufficient opportunities for students to practice the skills of communication. 6. To offer opportunities for academic specialization and prepara– tion for graduate study, and to assist the student in selecting and preparing for a vocation. 7. To foster the student's appreciation of and participation in whole– some avocational and cultural activities. History Cedarville College has a rich heritage. It was established by the Re– formed Presbyterian Church and individuals who had a vital interest in 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 quo– tation 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 col– lege, now an approved school of the General Association of Regular
The College 7 Baptist Churches, continues to perpetuate the original purpose of its founders. Under the direction of Dr. James T. Jeremiah, president since 1953, the college has experienced phenomenal growth. Since 1959 student enroll– ment 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 facili– ties, 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 Department of Education for the education, training and certification of both elementary and secondary school teachers. In 1972 the College was granted the status of "Recognized Candidate for Accreditation" from the North Central Association of Colleges and Secondary Schools. This recognition implies that the college is allowed three years to apply for full accreditation. Cedarville now enjoys an "A" rating in the "Report of Credit Given" published by AACRAO. The college holds membership in the Ohio College Association, the Council for the Advancement of Small Colleges, the Association of Ap-

Cedarville College is conveniently located in the rural com– munity 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 Columbus, Dayton, Springfield, Cincinnati and Xenia. The students find excellent opportunities for worship, practical Chris– tian service, and employment in all of the communities in the area. Cedarville is conveniently located near the center of the triangle formed by expressways 1-70, 1-71, and 1-75.

The College added or improved each year, and the old buildings have been remod– eled and refurbished for more effective use. A new library and a large girl's dormitory were opened during the 1967-68 school year. Both of these facilities contribute substantially to instructional and housing needs. When the new library was opened, the vacated building was refurbished and used for classes in the fine arts. In the fall of 1973 the new science center was opened for use. 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 Busi– ness Administration Department, faculty offices, and music practice rooms. Residence Halls The college maintains residence halls for both men and women. Mad– dox Hall is the largest dormitory at Cedarville. It is the campus home for 220 women. The other residence halls are Bethel, Faith, Harriman, Patter– son, West Hall, South 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 The 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 60,000 volumes, plus many other educational aids such as microfilms, recordings, tapes, film strips, slides, and art prints. Along with these instructional aids the library has available tape recordings, projectors, record players, and other similar equipment. The library has a media auditorium which will seat one hundred and several smaller rooms for seminars, conferences, committees, and work– shops. There are six small multi-purpose listening and recording rooms where students may preview records, make tapes of speeches, or similar assignments.
1 Cedarville College There is also a faculty research and study room where professional reference books are available. 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 Re– formed Presbyterian Church of Cedarville. The interior has been exten– sively redecorated and refurbished for use as the college chapel, for dramatic productions and for artist series activities. Athletic Field In 1962 the Board of Trustees authorized the purchase of 80 acres of land north of the main campus for development as an athletic field and recreation facility. In 1970 a large section of this land was developed for field sports such as baseball, soccer, field hockey, plus an all weather track, six tennis courts and a six acre lake. These facilities have contribut– ed greatly to the development of a strong intercollegiate and intramural sports program for both men and women. Communications The college post office, alumni office, admissions counselor, estate planning office, mailing room and radio station WCDR-FM are located in the communications building. Gymnasium-Student Center Completed in 1963, this building provides excellent facilities for phys– ical education, intramural and varsity basketball contests. The gymnasi– um seats over 1,200 spectators for varsity basketball contests. The student center includes a snack shop, lounge, large classrooms, and cafeteria. Music The former library, the fine arts building, has been reconditioned to provide instructional facilities for classes in music and large group re– hearsals. The Music Division will continue to use Ambassador Hall for individual music instruction and for small groups. Practice rooms are also located in Milner Hall. The new science center provides excellent instructional facilities for the biological, physical science and mathematics courses. The new
The College 11 building provides 20,000 square feet of space for lecture rooms, laborato– ries, observatory, faculty offices and auxiliary facilities. The improved classrooms, laboratories, and faculty offices will further strengthen the pre-professional programs related to health care. Development Plan There are 105 acres of land in the main campus. A campus master plan has been prepared to effectively utilize this area for further expansion of residence hall facilities, recreation area, college chapel and student center.
12 Cedarville College The college program is designed for the full development of each student in his spiritual, academic, physical and social life. The fundamen– tal Biblical position establishes a conservative pattern for all activities and conduct. 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 Iife at Cedarvi lie provides an outlet from the demands and pressures of college life. Our scenic 105-acre campus provides students with ample room to relax, study and enjoy the fellowship of other Chris– tian young people. As well as developing academically and spiritually, participation in one or more than a dozen campus student groups pro– vide 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 Cedarvi lie College, he must sign a statement signifying his willingness to adhere to the standards and reg– ulations 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, and use of cards which are employed in gambling, dancing, atten– dance at movie theaters, membership in secret societies, excessive use of cosmetics, and the wearing of extreme fashions. Students are expect– ed to abstain from the practice and/or promotion of those temporary Apostolic gifts usually associated with the Charismatic movement. Stu– dents 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 stu– dent 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 fellowship in a chapel service. Every student is required to attend. Faculty members, visiting pastors, educators, evangelists, and missionaries serve
Student Life 13 as speakers for these programs. Praise, prayer, worship, and practical Christian work are stressed. (A series of Bible lectures or a missionary conference is scheduled each quarter. Each year the Staley Distinguished Christian Scholar Lecture Program is a week-long part of the chapel program.) 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 upperclass– men play a significant role in the orientation program. During this period, several tests and a personality inventory are given to all new students. These tests must be taken before a new student can complete registration. Devotional In addition to private devotions and weekly residence hall prayer meetings, half-hour mission prayer meetings are conducted each morn– ing before the beginning of classes. Two days are designated each year as days of prayer. 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 college. There are opportunities for experience and service in local church minis– tries such as youth meetings, music, junior churches, nurseries, S.S. teaching and preaching opportunities. There are openings in homes for orphans, homes for Senior Citizens, penal institutions, rescue missions, childrens meetings in private homes and at a school for mentally retarded children. There are Swordbearers and Gospel Teams and community canvassing as well as summer mis– sionary internship programs. Many students are challenged by a campus visitation program in which there is an opportunity to share their faith in Christ with their academic peers on other college campuses. During Spring break there are Swordbearers Spring tours, Beach Evangelism in Florida and also a summer Swordbearers Gospel Team. The Director of Christian Service is responsible for the assignment of students who register for all kinds of Christian service work. He is also
1 Cedarville College responsible for Sunday services on campus, prayer meetings, pastoral counseling, and Swordbearers teams. Records are kept of all Christian Service activities and a permanent file on each student. The Christian Service Committee, made up of both faculty and stu– dents, works with the Director in defining the types of activities as well as establishing guidelines for the entire Christian Service program. Student Publications Students have the primary responsibility for the publication of the college year book, The Miracle, and the college newspaper, Whispering Cedars. A faculty-student committee provides direction and advice. Stu– dents interested in staff positions may apply to the editors.

Alpha Chi, a student organization, 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 en– joy a unique personal relationship with individual students and expe– rience 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 s.elec– tion 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 members of the faculty and staff to assist students in making their college experience as enriching and meaningful as possible.
