Countless days in a row broke temperature records, hitting temper- atures like 70 degrees in February, but the people of windy Cedarville weren't com- plaining too much—except for those snow fans. As always,the spring semester flew by, seeming to go faster than fall semester. In January, elite high school students visited the campus for two daysfor the high school leadership conference, gaining wisdom in how to lead both the world and their own high school in a godly, impactful way. The International Justice Mission held their third annual Possible Impossibilities 10K Race in collaboration with the Red Thread Movement. The Red Thread Movement fights to end human trafficking, exactly what UM and the 10K stand for. This year, Cedarville moved from doing Junior Jam twice a year to only doing it once: in the spring. The event for elementary-age chil- dren was held in March, and the campus was overrun with children for a Saturday. That was a day many students were careful where they chose to go because they knew it would be crowded with children. On the other hand, the screaming outside our windows all night was CedarMania, a night-long eventfor middle school students. Both events provide a mixture offun activ- ities and an encouraging message for youth. With Spring Break and Easter Break to cut up the semester,students often found them- selves asking at the end of April,"Where did the year go?"
