W hether the guys were bonding,growing spiritually, or being just plain silly, all agreed that their dorm wasthe best.Sophomore Rick Bricker said,"What happens in Lawlor stays in Lawlor, but the impact ofthe mature Lawlor men can be seen in the smiling faces of girls across campus:' This year, Lawlor residents could make an even better impression on theirfemale guests thanks to their newly renovated lounge.However,not all male residents rated their dorms based on their appeal to Cedarville girls.

Similarly, Ed Dunning described life in Rickard as"adventurous,thought-provoking,and sometimes all-out goofy.Whether it be sitting in the hall with the guys talking theology or climbing up the stairs old school with blankets tied to the railing...we just like hanging out with each other." Faced with eccentric unit-mates and outrageous pranks,Cedarville men took everything in stride. They bonded not onlyfrom hall Bible studies, but also from the chaos ofdorm life. •"Lawlor forces immature,proud boys to live with each other, sharpening each other to become mature,humble men of God'said Evan Carter, pictured playing pool in the Miter Center. •"Living in Brock Hall can be dangerous.One must always be ready for action.
