1982 Miracle Yearbook

Finally, spring break rolled aound, and eager students headed home to recuper- ate from winter quarter while the more fortunate onesflocked to Florida's beach- es. After two weeks of basking in the sun, sipping colas while propped in front of the television, and enjoying the outdoors, stu- dents reluctantly manned their posts in- side the classrooms of C.C. once again. While the sun brightly shone and flow- ers popped their heads out of the ground, daydreaming replaced concentration in- side the lecture halls. Students grew rest- less and longed to play tennis or go swim- ming instead of reading books and writing term papers. Students wrestled the big problem of how to study when the weather outside was beckoning. More diligent students solved the problem by taking their work outside under a shade tree. However, most students temporarily forgot about college and enjoyed themselves. Spirits heightened with the sunny weather, and all over campus cheery stu- dents could be found engaged in all sorts of activities. Once spring fever hit, cam- pus life wasn't the same. Girls spent the afternoons soaking up the sun in dorm courtyards while guys participated in sports. Mass exoduses were made to nearby malls, parks, or swimming areas to relieve spring fever. Another interesting part of dorm life was the telephone situation. With 8-14 girls sharing one telephone, many prob- lems abounded. Each time the telephone rang, girls trampled over each other trying to get the phone first, screaming, "It's for me! It's for me!" Then all the girls stood with their hands on their hips glaring at the unfortunate girl on the phone who cowered against the wall. After all, why should Mr. Right call her and not them? Cedarville College installed a new phone system which the students greatly appreciated, especially the guys. With the new party system a guy could talk to five girls at the same time! Also, outside calls could conveniently be made off campus to professors or students in Cedarville. However, only ten outside calls could be placed at one time, so the other 1640 students ran back and forth to the tele- phone to see if a line opened. SO
