1977-1978 Academic Catalog

Dear Friend: We encourage you to read this catalog and become acquainted with the program of Christian liberal arts education offered by Cedarville College. As you peruse the pages of this catalog and then, hopefully, have an opportunity to visit the campus, you will see that without reservation Cedarville College is a Christian college with Christian students, professors, and staff members interested in seeing that biblical truth is integrated into the curriculum and emphasized in every other area of the student's Iife. It is our conviction that a Christian college must be founded on and be controlled by sound Scriptural convictions and be unwilling to sacrifice Christian conduct and biblical standards. We believe that standards for trustees, faculty and students should be uncompromisingly in harmony with God's Word. In keeping with this principle, Cedarville College submits itself to biblical authority and is administered by godly faculty, consistent administration, and a dedicated Christian board of trustees. As you con– sider the possibility of becoming a student on our campus, it is imperative that you sincerely consider these standards to determine whether or not you will be happy in this type of environment. Evidence of God's approval of and His blessing upon the college holding these convictions is seen in the growth and influence of Cedarville College during the past twenty-four years. We have seen the enrollment increase from 100 students to over 1200. Applications for admission are greater in number than they ever have been in the history of the institution. The college has been approved by the state of Ohio for teacher education and has already prepared many teachers who have been certified to teach in the public and Christian schools. We have been granted regional accredita– tion by the North Central Association of Colleges and Schools. Cedarville College has academic excellence as one of its important goals. In offering an education to young people entrusted to us, we seek to provide instruction equal or superior to that found in the secular colleges of the day. Many of our graduates have gone directly from graduation to areas of service and have been highly successful. Others have extended their academic program and have completed work in many graduate schools and theological seminaries. We are encouraged that Cedarville College has had a vital part in these successes. As you visit the campus, you will see that the physical facilities have been progressively improved as funds have been made available. A new library building, a new science center, new dormitories are some of the recent additions. A new chapel completed and used for the first time in May of 1976 is the most recent addition to buildings on our campus. Cedarville College is a Baptist college supported by Bible-believing churches for the benefit of all Christian young people, regardless of denominational affiliation. Our students and graduates are encouraged to serve enthusiastically in the local churches. We desire to have a part in assisting committed young people to achieve worthwhile goals in life. If we can be of help to you we shall be very grateful. Sincerely in Christ Dr. James T. Jeremiah.
