STATE OFTHE COLLEGE Dr.Paul Dixon President Truly as we think ofCedarville College, the LORD be magnified,notthe trustees, notthe president,notthe administration, the faculty, the staff, the graduates, the students,those who send in the financial support; above everything else as David said -- let the LORD be magnified. Our theme for this academic year is "Seizing a World ofOpportunity" -- that's a tremendous challenge for all ofus individually and certainly institutionally. We rejoice in the blessing ofGod in the academic quality ofthe students choosing tocomeandto completetheireducation at Cedarville.Butbeyondtheacademicquality, I am impressed with the spirit ofour student body. The potential is phenomenal for God and I'm thankful, so very thankful,thattheychose andthatGodled for them to be a part of the Cedarville College family. Students want to get an education that is based on the Word of God;ifthey are going to go to a Christian school, and want legitimate credentials, Academics 02 October 18,1991 they want something that has some integrity behind it. They want to be able to go out and say withpride, "I was adequately prepared to serve my God and to serve the people ofthe world in my particular discipline." We put the addition onto Alford last January to facilitate not only the needs ofthe music departmentbutalso to help drama; we've completed the track and we're told it's one ofthe finesttracksfor anycollege or universityinthe state. To think that a school like Cedarville can haveafacilitylike this with thelatestin equipment.Godhasblessed usand we're so thankful for those who provide the funds that make this possible. Weareenjoyingimmenseblessingand have tremendous accountability before our Creator.., a theological responsibility and a moral responsibility. Ifwe are going to seize our world of opportunity for Christ, we must do it according to truth -- God's truth.
all photos by Marsha Olsen "I look forward to having the open forum,at least a couple of them during the academic year,so Ican find out how you tick and what you are thinking and what your questions are." "To think that Cedarville can have a facility like this,with the latestin equipment,not only for engineering and nursing and the sciences,but we're building general education classes in there. Mostofyou will have an opportunity,one way or the other,to go in and out ofthat facility God has blessed us with." 'Doug Chisholm has been employed this year to devote all of his effort to the security and the safety on campus.It's the first time we've ever had someone totally devoting all his energies to that area." "Students are whatthis place is all about:God sent us 2046 students this year,another record enrollment,a growth of123 over last year's student body." Academics
Seeking God's Face Day ofPrayer, May 7, 1992 Woohoo!We get out ofa whole morning ofclasses! What? We have to get up at8am,miss breakfast,and sign in at three different meetings?! Whatis the Day ofPrayer,and why does Cedarville's administration plan one every quarter? The Day ofPrayer has been a tradition at Cedarville for many years.Its purpose is to allow the college family to focus on prayer and to remindthem to be in a constant state of prayer (I Thessalonians 5:17). Dr.Dixon said our Day of Prayer also helps show support to those with special needs, especially students with unsaved parents. Sometimes,such as last year during Desert Shield,the Day ofPrayer has a special focus. Other times wefocus on special needs ofthe college family;students and professors give testimonies about how prayer has affected their lives. It is awesome,and sometimes almostfrightening,to hear about the incredible power ofGod and whatfaith in Him can accomplish. Following is a list ofideas that can help us to maintain variety and continue focusing on prayer throughout the year. 1. Write out prayers,especially praises. 2. Read prayers that are in the Bible. 3. Write requests in a notebook;then when answers come, write them in also. 4.Pick a different topic to pray for each day. 5. Just praise and thank God once in a while. 6.Pray especially for people with whom you don't get along (Matthew 5:44;Luke 6:28). 7.Pray outloud. 8. Write down one praise and one request each day. •Jim Foster The Day ofPrayer is honored by all as these students prepare to pray for our nation.

Giving Honor Where It's Due Honors Day 1992 While there are many aspects to any one student's life at Cedarville, all students are involved in academics. Honors Day,held this year on May 1, 1992,is the day when those who have made significant academic achievements are honored for their diligent study. Honors Day is also a day for the student body to thank one special staff and faculty member by presenting the Faculty and StaffMember ofthe Year awards.This year's Faculty Member of the Year was Dr.Pamela Diehl.

Biblical Education The faculty are a vital part of Cedarville College. This year the Bible Department has been blessed with two new faculty members, Dr. Cheryl Fawcett and Mr. Chris Miller. Dr. Fawcett received her B.R.E.from Baptist Bible College, Clarks Summit,Pennsylvania; M.A.from Wheaton College, Wheaton, Illinois; and Ed.D.from Trinity Evangelical Divinity School. Mr. Miller graduated from Word of Life Bible Institute, received a B.A.from Tennessee Temple,a Th.M.from Grace Theological Seminary, and is currently working on his Doctorate of Theology degree from Dallas Theological Seminary. • Julie Mulder New faculty member Mr. Chris Miller. otos y esse Vv,sselink New faculty member Cheryl Fawcett. Business Administration As the business communities of the world become independent and free, new and exciting opportunities emerge for the message of reconciliation which God has given. "Seizing a World of Opportunity" has been chosen as the Cedarville College theme for the 1991-1992 academic year. God has opened many doors of ministry in eastern Europe and the USSR; Dr. Richard Baldwin, Associate Professor of Management,was an invited lecturer at the Foreign Language Institute in Gorky, Russia. Through a Russian translator, Dr. Baldwin addressed 25-30 production managers on basic business practices in the U.S.A., international business,and Japanese management principles. He became part of the global focus which the Business Department has adopted this year. Through Dr. Baldwin and other faculty, the Business Department hopes to seize each of the opportunities in which God would have them involved for the sake of the gospel. •Meredith Clements ji Academics International Studies student,Hans Stonehouse.
Communication Arts Much is happening with the Communication Arts Department. Not only is WSRN now completely staffed and in full swing, but also the Forensics team won the state championship for the third straight year. Perhaps the most exciting change for the department is that of computerization; including interactive video, animation, and desk top media. •Mindy Boone ody Montgomery and her class in New Guinea. oto cont ue v • y ontgomery Education According to Dr. Ager,the Student Teaching Abroad program is an exciting aspect ofthe Education Department.The purpose ofthe program is to provide teaching careers in overseas settings, whether it be in MK schools or multicultural schools. Not only do the student teachers learn and benefit from the experience, but the cooperating schools often recruit new teachers as a result ofthis process. Where exactly are the teachers going? All over the world! So far,student teachers have gone to Ecuador,Okinawa,New Guinea,the Dominican Republic,Puerto Rico,the Philippines,and yes, even Hawaii.This year,approximately eleven Cedarville College students completed their student teaching abroad;that number will surly increase as the Education Department continues to expand each year. •Karla Warnken I Academics 3

Engineering Practical experience that begins the first year,field trips, presentations from professionals,hands on projects,and designs that are entered in competitions, professors who are experienced engineers and desire to integrate their curriculum with Biblical principles, Cedarville's Engineering emphasizes these objectives. Engineering is a new and expanding major.Each year more students come,and new faculty are added. The most significant addition is the new engineering and nursing facility. This addition "will contain the latest in equipment and instructional technology." A Computer Aided Design(CAD)Laboratory is already in use,helping students complete assignments and design projects.The Engineering Department trains students to tackle twenty-first century problems from a Christian perspective. •Jim Foster photo by Jonathan Bush A tour PrOlITI being lad thronah the new Seienee and F,noineerint,huildina Health and Physical Education The De Physical] service by are in eitl pain and love to thi was the a Faculty 1\■ exemplifil ofothers needs thr partment ofHealth and -i,ducation is focusing on reaching out to people who ier emotional or physical by demonstrating God's em.A highlight ofthe year warding ofDr.Diehl with lember ofthe Year.Her life es the concepts ofthinking and seeking to meet their ough service and prayer.

Although the Music Department is already an incredible program,its good keeps getting better. The faculty alone speaks for itself, with nine full-time and ten parttime faculty; and between the professors,the Music Department has 112 years ofexperience at Cedarville College alone. The faculty stays busy outside ofschool;for example,five ofthe faculty have earned their doctorates and several are members oflocal orchestras. What exactly is the direction oftransitions in the Music Department? New majors are being added to the curriculum; faculty is increasing and plans are being made to have a full orchestra within the next two years. These changes arejust a few transitions that are happening in the Music Department as they look forward to the future. •Julie Mulder Academics 17
Nursing Dr.Alyn wants to focus on nursing as a ministry, notjust as a profession. A nurse is responsible for many roles medically, socially, and spiritually. She/he can exemplify the love ofGod through administering medicine,encouraging the patient in physical therapy,sharing in thejoy ofa newborn,and listening with the heart to a patient. The nurse must balance her/his life-style with both people and technology. She/he also must properly interact with doctors, patients,the patient's environment,and other peers. Cedarville College prepares each student properly to carry out her or his responsibilities as a future nurse and warrior of God. *Janet Payne phot, \lar.shz, Olsen Melissa Henry and Beth Lutz do an ECG on a patient" at the Health Fair. Psychology Few students know about the changes the Psychology Department has undergone within the past year. First of all, an Applied Psychology major has been added to the curriculum.This new major allows the Psychology student to branch out into other related areas within five emphases: Counseling,Child/Family Studies,Gerontology,Health,and Industrial/Organizational. Another addition to the department is Dr. Chi-En-Hwang, the first woman to belong to the department. Dr.Hwang studied at the University ofIowa after leaving her home in Taiwan in 1977. She then spent two years in Hong Kong before returning to the United States to teach at the University ofHouston.The most interesting aspect ofDr.Hwang is her name,which means"Grace ofGod." She is often asked about it and finds her name to be an effective tool in witnessing. With these two additions, the rather small Psychology Department is making significant progress. •Karla Warnken 8 Academics Dr. Ffwang in one ofher Psycholo.v classes. photo by Mal

Dr. Wetzel,chairman ofthe Science and Math Tipnartmpnt Science and Mathematics Dr. Wetzel is excited about the changes in the Science and Math Department.Four new professors are coming next year; one will be the first full-time female faculty member in the department.Two ofthe new professors will be filling new positions,one in biology and one in math.A new trigonometry based physics course may also be added.The department is also trying to add some younger professors,as well as keep up their high percentage ofthose with doctorates. More obvious to students will be the change in the building where the Science and Math Departmentis housed.The old science center has been almost completely renovated. Air conditioning,sprinklers,new carpeting and paint have given it a more modern look. Rebricking the science center helps it match the motifofCedarville's campus. The addition ofthe new facility is probably the most exciting change on campus.Dr. Wetzel,who chaired the committee that planned the new building,said faculty and student lounges,twelve new classrooms,and another computer center will make it possible for every one to take advantage ofit. The Science and Math Department will benefitfrom professors offices,two biology labs,a physical science lab,and a geolo lab. Cedarville's Science and Math Department is leading the way in preparing students to face 21st century challenges and technology. •Jim Foster Social ciences an istory Major changes are under way in the Department of Social Science and History for the 1992-93 academic year. Perhaps the greatest is the addition ofthe soc work major. Recognizing the immediate need for Christian social workers,the department has made the effort to have all coursework in place for the fall. Along with this change,the department has added new faculty member,Miss Cynthia Sutter. • Mindy Boo Cindy Sutter,new professor ofSocial Work. photo by Marsha Olsen. Academics 19

When she first came to the college in 1966, one room in the back of Faith Hall was the nurse's station. During the 70's and 80's, the Health Service was in the "old farmhouse." Under Betty's direction, the nursing staff has increased to 4 full time nurses, and the remodeling of Patterson Hall from a dorm to a clinic facility has occurred. She holds the distinction of being one of the first college health nurses to be certified in the nation. State and national recognition has affirmed her contribution to health concerns and her leadership.
