Inspire, Fall 2006

Fall 2006 inspire The Cedarville UNIVERSITY Alumni Magazine Volume 17 Issue 1 Director’s Chair C hristmas isn’t that far away! I know, most of us are thinking about another school year, Homecoming, and kids’ soccer games. But, won’t you join me in thinking about Christmas for just the length of this editorial? Each year, the Stevens Student Center (the hub of student activity on campus) is filled with Christmas trees decorated by student organizations and groups. I think it’s time that the CU Alumni Association is represented by having a decorated tree! Students sometimes think of alumni as this nebulous group of old people who invade campus once a year at Homecoming and give money for new buildings. What they don’t realize is that alumni live in 50 states and 60 foreign countries, represent a myriad of interesting careers, and invest their energy in any number of activities … including Cedarville. Would you help our students get to know alumni as individuals by sending a Christmas ornament for our tree? The ornament can represent where you live, what you do, or activities you enjoy. We’ll place the ornament on the alumni tree, including your name, class year, and what the ornament represents. (Please note: we cannot return ornaments.) Please send your ornament to the following address by November 15: Alumni Relations Cedarville University 251 N. Main St. Cedarville, OH 45314 Thanks for helping us celebrate Christmas on campus!
