1982 Miracle Yearbook

A YEAR IN THE LIFE OF A CEDARVILLE COLLEGE STUDENT Loaded down stationwagons, huge campers, overstuffed Volkswagons and numerous U-Haul trucks swarmed to Ce- darville College on a blustery Autumn day. Was this the devastating scene after a terrible tornado? No, it happened to be merely a throng of students arriving back on campus to begin the 1981-82 school year; then again, maybe it could be classified as a disaster. Each student anxiously rushed to his new home,the dormitory. Once there, ev- ery member of the family proceeded to laboriously stuff boxes, bags, suitcases, lamps, pictures, books, sporting goods,a bicycle, refrigerator (just to name a few things) into the room. Within the hour the small 15' by 30' space bulged from wall to wall with all the treasured possessions of two students and only adequate room to store half of it. After the parents left, all loneliness was temporarily brushed aside, and the stu- dent raced from one room to another, up and down the hall, seeking for his friends. Settled down with soda cans, munchies, and stereo music,the friends laughed and chatted until the wee hours of the morn- ing. So what if they should have been BM organizing their rooms, the mess would NMI be there to clean another day.
