1982 Miracle Yearbook

FACULTY MEMBERS LEAVE CEDARVILLE TO ACCEPT NEW POSITIONS After 13 years of developing the col- lege's philosophy curriculum, Mr. James Grier (upper left hand picture) has undertaken the new role of Dean of Grand Rapids Baptist Seminary in Grand Rapids, Michigan. Mr. Grier will act as the Dean as well as teach in the areas of apologetics and theology. Mr. Grier accepted the new job because he felt that he could make the most significant contribution to the kingdom of Christ at Grand Rapids because of the impact he could have on men who would stand in pulpits. During his last year at Cedarville, students packed his philosophy classes to overflowing in order to benefit from his teaching be- fore he left. Cedarville College will be without three members of the college family when the 1982-83school year begins. These three members were led by the Lord to accept new jobs with new responsibil- ities. First of all, Mr. Richard Torrans, Assistant Director of Christian Service, left Cedarville to become the Editor of Music for Singspiration Corporation. Mr. Torrans, who has spent most of his life ministering through music, accept- ed the new job because it would give him more time to create music, which is what he feels God has called him to do. His superb work in working with traveling groups and coordinating the music for chapel will be greatly missed. Another faculty member to leave the college was Dr. Kearney (lower right picture, on the far left). After complet- ing her 20th year as a professor in the Physical Education Department and a women's athletic coach, Dr. Kearney moved on to Indiana University. In her new position, she will be assistant coach of the women's basketball team to Miss Jeremiah, who is also a former Cedarville College faculty member (lower right picture, in the middle). !WM\ • '"`"r \,v ";,•,S "‘,' HIGHLIGHTS/171
