1984-1985 Academic Catalog

The personnel believe that residence hall living is an integral part of the educational process. An appropriate residence hall en– vironment contributes to academic achievement, an understand– ing of oneself, and development of interpersonal skills and appro– priate attitudes toward others. Consequently, all single students under twenty-five years of age are required to live in college resi– dence halls or approved housing, except those commuting from the home of their parents or legal guardian. Housing assignments are made by the Student Services Office. Upperclassmen who have paid reservation fees are given priority for reserving rooms. New students are assigned rooms after they have been admitted and have submitted their reservation deposits. Complete information concerning residence hall staffing, fur– nishings, and policies is found in the Student Handbook which is sent to new students prior to their arrival on campus. A current listing of housing for married students is available from the Student Services Office. As over 80% ofthe student body resides in college housing, dormitory life plays a significant part in the Cedarville experience. Lam1ms Activities The Office of Campus Activities is responsible for providing a program of cultural, social, educational, and recreational ac– tivities that is consistent with college educational and spiritual ob– jectives and, therefore, contributes to the personal development of college community members. An artist series provides con– certs, cultural programs, and musical specialists. Other activities include a variety of learning experiences and social events such as banquets, talent nights, all-school parties, interest trips, retreats, and many other activities that appeal to college-age youth. A full range of recreational and intramural sports for both men and women completes the integrative approach of Campus Activities.
