1994 Miracle Yearbook

All Classes Cancelled for the Day? YES! Swelling with the hearty pride of one whose very character has been ham- mered out by the driving windsofa Midwestern win- ter,a Cedarville Collegead- ministrator proclaimed to the shivering masses that the only condition upon which classes would be cancelled was the rapture ofthe saintsto glory. Then came January 1994. "I got the call at 6:00 a.m.," said R.A. Darryl Hammock, speaking of the announce- mentthatnoclasses would be held duetotemperatures which were plummeting below -30 f. "I tried to go back to bed, but once the word spread down the hall, the celebrations began." And on a cold and snowy day, thought Caron Hartkop, could there be a better waytocelebratethan to soak in the hot tub at Springfield's Holiday Inn? Caron's friends thought not, so together they en- duredthecold ridethattook them to Springfield, think- ing only of the luxury of what awaited them once there. More productivestu- dents used the day to sharpen their eye-hand co- ordination(viaTetris),while othersfocused on increas- ingtheir physicalagility(via buck-buck). Veryfew actu- ally cracked the books. Said Ryan Mears,"The day basically presented two choices: study or sleep. I took my example from the North American grizzly." *Marcy Hintz 62 Student Life
