1975-1976 Academic Catalog

8 Cedarville College 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 Business Administration Depart– ment, faculty offices, and music 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 women. The other residence halls are Bethel, Faith, Harriman, Patterson, 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. library Services 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 70,000 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 workshops. There are six small multi-purpose listening and recording rooms where students may pre– view records, make tapes of speeches, or similar assignments. 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 Reformed Presbyterian Church of Cedarville. The interior has been extensively redecorated and refur– bished 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 contributed greatly to the development of a strong intercol– legiate and intramural sports program for both men and women.
