1990-1991 Academic Catalog

Completed in 1976, this 2000-seat auditorium bears the name of James T. Jeremiah, the president who saw the College grow from 100 to 1200 students during his twenty-five years of service between 1953 and 1978. Its decor, blue and gold, mirrors the colors of the College and its corner– stone, with Revelation 1:9 instriced, bears its motto: "For the Word of God and the Testimony of Jesus Christ." A rare, three-console Allen digital organ, the only one of its kind in Southwestern Ohio, fills the chapel with music. A IO-foot Baldwin concert grand piano complements the organ. By its location at the center of the campus, the James T. Jeremiah Chapel demonstrates the centrality of the daily chapel program in the life of the Cedarville College family. Coordinated by the president of the College, chapel services feature outstanding Christian speakers from all over the world and many walks of life. The president himself speaks most Monday mornings. The Student Government Association coordinates Friday morn– ing sessions. Designed to encourage, edify, and challenge, chapel services, though required, are popular among the members of the college family, reflecting the quality of the speakers and relevance of the topics they ad– dress. The chapel also serves as the site for church services of the Ce– darville Baptist Fellowship on Sunday mornings, Sunday evenings, and Wednesday evenings. Directed by the student-selected Advisory Seven, these well-attended services provide an alternative for students who choose not to go off campus to attend one of the churches in the area. Though the vice president for Christian ministries oversees the Fellowship and fre– quently speaks in the services, students often preach and teach in the Fel– lowship, sharing pertinent insights and gaining valuable experience.
