2011 Miracle Yearbook

4 232 SENIOR RECEPTION Upon stepping foot on the campus, students are introduced to the man, the myth,the legend that is Dr. Brown. He is Cedarville's biggest celebrity. To get a nod of approval, or a friendly "how are you" from Dr. Brown is a highlight for any day. Underclassmen may be wondering where he lays his head at night, secretly wishing to get an inside look into his life. Then after four years, it happens—the senior reception at Dr. Brown's. Every year the Brown family is gracious enough to open their home to the graduating class. Students wore their Sunday best while they munched on hors d'oeuvres of cheesecake balls, fruit tarts, and sparkling punch. But the real highlight was the grand tour of the Browns' home given by Dr. Brown himself. He guided students through his home, graciously allowing them to poke through his personal life. As a side note, upon the tour, some students happened to notice, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows on his library shelf. They thought Dr. Brown couldn't get any cooler, but he did. The afternoon culminated in personal conversations with our President and a photograph to remember the moment. The senior reception at Dr Brown's is always a highlight as students get to make last memories with their friends and spend time with our beloved president, Dr. Brown. "It's really great to have a president who goes out of his way to get to know the students personally." (Caitlin Krop) The Browns put out quite the spread of hors d'oeuvres for the visiting seniors. As college students,they definitely appreciate free food! Dr. and Mrs. Brown take the time to reminisce with the senior students. Shauna Acheson engages Dr. Brown in stimulating conversation during the reception. Students enjoy taking the time to have a talk with the University president.
