2002 Miracle Yearbook

132 Activities up All Night Men's Residential Life Living in the dorms ranked well on the highlight list for men. Dorm life lit up as one ofthe few bright lights on a dark road filled with exams,no cash, morning classes,and horizontal rain. The men who lived on campusfound time to include all the essentials: God,friends,fun,and schoolwork. The men chose pool as the unofficial sport ofdorm life. Lounges all over campus housed a number ofpool tables, which men frequented at all hours ofthe day, leaving aline ofeager participants waiting. The Cedarville men's dorms, with zero female interference, bred interesting habits and tales. The men ofLawlor,as well as The Hill, often took quiet time rules into their own hands. These clearly mature men ran around their parking lot, using everything from air raid sirens to banging on the roof in order to wake the campus after curfew. Over in the upperclassmen dorms,the men were usually quieter,studying and finishing their work while still enjoying the experience ofliving on campus. Cedarville's male population often took a break to work on their spiritual lives as well. Living on their own allowed them to chal- lenge themselves with what they believed. Men's units and halls regularlycame together to pray and study God's Word. Roommates held each other accountable,and the men sought to live a life pleasing to God in the dorms as well as outside their walls. When in solitude, with God being their only witness,the men still lived and acted in a way that pleased their Lord and Master. The men left Cedarville Univer- sity at the end ofthe year with great memories they had made in the dorms. This student takes advantage of some time alone in the room to tune his guitar and sing a few choruses. Some students find their bottom bunk the most comfortable place to relax and plug away at some homework.
