Another Building Bites the Dust

Students bring Henry James' "The Heiress" to CedarviUe's stageGudrun Olson Staff Writer

CedarviUe’s spring play, The Heiress, is taken from Henry James’ novella, Washington Square, which was recently made into a movie. The Cedarville drama faculty chose the play for Spring Quarter be­cause the 1840s New York setting provided an opportunity to show­case a spectacle-oriented drama in terms of costumes and set.

Romance, wealth, control, and women’s roles in society are all timeless themes addressed in the play. Freshman communication arts major Joanna Robinson takes on her second lead role playing Catherine Sloper, the daughter of a successful doctor, who is pursued by a delightful fortune hunter, Morris Townsend.

Sophomore communication arts major Jeremy Brown portrays Townsend’s character. Brown said, “The moment I step on stage as Morris, I charm every character in the play.”

Dr. Sloper, dramatized by sopho­more CIS majorBrenon Christofer, is opposed to To wnsend’ s proposal to marry his daughter and refuses to allow it. Robinson said that at the plays opening, Catherine is a na­ive, timid girl who almost needs

someone to make decisions for her. The control issue becomes a source of tension in the play. Will Catherine allow her father to control her, or will she make her own decisions?

Lavinia Penpiman is Dr. Sloper’s sister, played by junior communica­tions arts major Jennifer Groff. Groff said, “Lavinia is the matchmaker who

provides some comic relief. She’s dying to see the romance happen.” Groff thinks that discovering true love is really what is at the heart of the play.

Erika Olin, a junior speech edu­cation major; Angie Wenzel, a se­nior communication arts major; Jeremy Pierre, a freshman English

education major; Kelly Grady, a junior Bible major; and Kelsey Perkins, a sophomore communica­tion arts major, fill out the rest of the nine member cast.

James’ book Washington Square was adapted for the stage in the 1940s. In 1995, the play experi­enced a revival on Broadway. Heir­

ess director Gary Barker, associ­ate professor of communication arts, thinks the story’s recent popularity with professional com­panies and the movie industry is largely because of its success on Broadway. An ironic Miami Val­ley testimony to James’ current popularity is that Wright State, Clark State, and Cedarville Col­lege all chose independently to perform the play, The Heiress, this school year.

Following the opening night performance, Cedarville will host a talk-back with a dramaturg Heather Fourman, who recently graduated with an English major. Fourman has done the literary research and worked with. Barker regarding theme definition and period etiquette. “The talk-back is not an evaluation. It’s more of an exploration of the themes and ideas that the play brings up,” Barker said.

The play’s production will run for two consecutive weekends. It will be performed April 23-25 at 8:00 p.m., and also during Par­ents Weekend: April 30 at 8:00 p.m., May 1-2 at 8:00 p.m., and May 2 at 2:00 p.m. Admission is $7.00 for adults and $6.00 for students.

Cal Thomas challenges students to serve God in every vocationRebecca Ditzel

Lead WriterOne week after the missions con­

ference closed, another well-known speaker delivered a message on Christian involvement in world af­fairs. Nationally syndicated col­umnist Cal Thomas did not address the plight of remote unsaved peoples, however. Rather, he stressed the importance of Chris­tian involvement in visible, cul­ture-shaping fields.

“The mission field is far broader, higher, wider, and deeper than what we have come to regard it as ‘full time Christian service,”’ Thomas said. “I believe I am as much in full time service to Jesus Christ as a columnist on the opinion pages of the nations’ newspapers—where I’m doing combat every day with the ideas and the thinking patterns

of this world—as someone who is serving God 5,000 miles away in difficult circumstances.”

The idea was new to some stu­dents, but most found themselves agreeing with Thomas’s philosophy for Christians in gatekeeping posi­tions. Freshman English education major Michelle Bridges hopes to go into missions, perhaps teaching over­sees. “As long as the motivation is pure, and not for self-glory, the me­dia field is definitely just as cutting edge and valid of a place for Chris­tians to be as any typical Christian ministry. I think the keys are quality work and genuine love for people— those two things will earn credibility for Christ, who wouldn’t settle for anything less.

"Everyone sees the media. A Chris­tian who excels in the field has in­credible potential to reach people

who may not be reached by any one else,” Bridges said.

With a diverse list of admirers that includes SenatorTed Kennedy, President Ronald Reagan, colum­nist George Will, and commenta­tor Rush Limbaugh, Thomas has attained a level of influence few Christians can claim. Thomas’s bi-weekly column is currently syn­dicated in more than 450 newspa­pers, and his radio program is aired on more than 100 stations. This exposure has opened up a range of contacts among non-Christians, many of whom he and his wife consider dear friends. He has a pas­sion for hobnobbing with America’s political and media elite and sharing Christ with them when­ever the Lord gives the opportu­nity.

“That is why God has placed me

there among them. They come to me and listen to me now not only because they see the credibility I’ve developed in our industry but also because I never condemn them,” Thomas said.

Junior communication arts and philosophy major Jesse De Conto said, “Cal Thomas is a model of relationship evangelism. People are not going to listen to what you say if they don’t trust you. When we focus on specific manifestations of sin—promiscuity, abortion, drugs, alcohol—rather than the sin nature of those around us, then we miss the point of the gospel, and we often destroy the hope of having people trust us. Cal Thomas doesn’t seek to reform society ; he seeks to be an example of a transformed life. That’s what people need to see and to experience.” Although De Conto

is planning to attend seminary after graduation, he would also like to write for publication.

If any writing professional knows the reality of working from the bottom of the labor pool up, it is Thomas. Thirty years ago, he was a copy boy for NBC news, fresh out of American Univer­sity. At night, he would take homecopy written by David Brinkley and other newscasting greats of the 1960s that he found in the trash can. He scrutinized their writing and noted every edit. His observations and practice are reflected now in his columns and nine published books.

While writing is Thomas’s forte, his principle message ap­plies to students pursuing careers in many fields. He has hosted

News and Features...................... ..............................New A d 7 men, Pastor Rohm discuss goals for upcoming year

The 1998-1999 Advisory Seven hopes to deliver well-prepared messages, establish relationships with students, and maintain lives of integrity. Photo by D. Blackburn.

Carol Marks Lead Writer

From the first Sunday evening of Spring Quarter, students have known what to expect from the new Ad 7. Through video clips and brief insights from fellow Ad 7 members, Dan Byrne, Michael Dorsey, Scott Lehr, MattPalombo, Loren Pierson, Joel Schenk, and Jonathan Winn introduced each other to the student body.

The group, led by Pastor Rohm, outlined three main goals for their ministry over the next three quar­ters. “We ultimately serve because it glorifies God,” Palombo, the chairman, said. More precisely, the Ad 7 aims to deliver well- prepared messages, establish rela­tionships with the student body, and exhibit lives of integrity.

As Palombo, a junior history major, pointed out, each of the seven men is different, so each will work for their goals differ­ently. When asked how he hoped to reach the three goals of the Ad 7, Pierson, a transfer Bible com­prehensive major, said, “I want to treat the position seriously and really invest a good portion of my time in it.” Schenk, a sophomore pre-seminary major, said, “Just do it. Be prepared. Meet people. I’m going to try to be involved on campus to cultivate relationships.”

“Being on Ad 7 doesn’t make me more spiritual; it just makes me more accountable,” Lehr, who is also a pre-seminary major, said. “Living the life of integrity is go­ing to be the most important thing for me.”

Winn’s method of meeting the goals is simple: “By being real.” Dan Byrne, a transfer pre-semi­nary major, hopes to meet the goals of the Ad 7 by giving people the time and attention that they need.

Dorsey, a sophomore organiza­tional communications major, ad­dressed the goal of being

well-prepared. He said, “With the speaking schedule that we’ve had, there is no excuse for being ill- prepared.” Palombo will spend months on what he teaches, dis­cussing his topics with teachers and other people. He also said, “Staying committed to God’s Word and prayer and really the accountabil­ity aspect will help our lives of integrity.”

The members of the Ad 7 are excited about different opportuni­ties to serve. Lehr said, “I’m ex­cited but really nervous to speak in Fellowship.” He also looks forward to cultivating friendships with stu­dents he would not have met if he were not on the Ad 7. In addition to the responsibilities associated with the Ad 7, Schenk anticipates the opportunity to work with these seven guys, Pastor Rohm included, and to learn from them.

Palombo is excited about the op­portunity to teach God’s Word. Pierson said, “I’m excited about the

opportunity to work with... some of the younger guys on campus and to invest back into them the same way older guys have invested into me.”

“I’m really excited about the ser­vice to the students,” Dorsey said. He looks forward to sharing with students. After serving two years as the Class of 2000’s president, Dorsey pointed out the difference between his role as president and his newest role on the Ad 7. “Now students hold me up to a different set of expectations,” he said.

Pastor Rohm and last year’s Ad 7 appointed the new Ad 7 to their various positions in the group. Byrne said, “I ’m excited to learn as much as I can from Pastor Rohm about ministry.”

Palombo will undertake leader­ship responsibilities as the chair­man. “Even the title brings responsibility. Whether I like it or not, some decisions are going to fall in my hands,” Palombo said. As the treasurer, Schenk will appoint ush­

ers to take offerings and work with any money that comes to the Ad 7.

Lehr, as the secretary, takes notes at the weekly meetings—held on Wednesday night after Fellow­ship—and chooses people for spe­cial music on Sunday evenings. Dorsey selects people for special music on Wednesday evenings and helps Winn, the worship leader, in preparing for worship. Winn, a sophomore C.E. youth and interna­tional business major, enjoys coor­dinating the worship time during Fellowship. Winn appointed the musicians who help him lead stu­dents in singing.

Pierson will take charge of mis­sions and is also the prayer coordi­nator. Byrne will run the PowerPoint presentations for services.

Having gained experience in dif­ferent areas of campus, the Ad 7 has a well-rounded perspective on stu­dent life. In addition to his experi­ence as the president for the Class of 2000, Dorsey has also learned from his membership on the Foren­sics team at Cedarville. “I love to talk and to be with people. I love people in general, and I think that’s a plus.”

Winn ’ s experience in various mu­sic groups, including his current role as a member of the Kingsmen Quartet, enhances his role as wor­ship leader. Through an outreach to Antioch College with Mike Shep­herd, Winn has also learned about cultivating relationships. Still, Winn said, “I don’t think anything can prepare me for this [role on Ad 7], It’s a huge test of faith.”

Since transferring to Cedarville last year, Pierson has helped to be­gin a Campus Crusade ministry at Clark State Community College. Pierson teaches a junior high Sun­day School class at a local church. Working with people from his home church in Washington state gave him the best preparation for his du­ties on the Ad 7, he said.

Byrne brings to the group his experience as Alpha Chi’s chap- 1 lain. In addition to being an R.A., Byrne is active in Open Heirs and leads a prayer group on campus for unsaved parents. He credits his min­istry at the University of Wiscon­sin, where Byrne studied before transferring to Cedarville, as the time that most prepared him for becoming a member of the Ad 7.

Schenk served as the Class of 2000’s chaplain during his fresh­man year and has helped to estab­lish an Encouragement/Accoun- tability group at Cedarville. Since last fall, Schenk has been helping to plan a Youth Ride for high school students at FairCreek Church which will take place on April 24. Several past opportunities to preach have prepared Schenk for his work on the Ad 7.

Among other activities, Palombo has helped start the youth group at Grace Community Church and helped organize and lead Cedar Mania. During his freshman and sophomore year at Cedarville, Palombo served as an SGA senator. He founded the World Missions Fellowship at Cedarville. “I’vedone about a total of 30 weeks of intern­ship at my home church,” Palombo said. During that time, he worked with the youth and senior pastor and had the opportunity to teach.

Lehr is the vice president of the current sophomore class and leads several small group Bible studies.In addition to working with Calvary Baptist’s youth group last year, Lehr has spoken to several different youth groups in the past. Because he ap­preciates the time other people have invested in his life, Lehr would like to see more discipleship on cam­pus. He believes his experience as an R.A. in Lawlor best prepared him to be on the Ad 7. “I’d recom­mend anyone that opportunity—to be an R.A.,” Lehr said.

Obtaining permission to live off-campus becomes more efficientMiranda Woller

Contributing Writer The days of headaches and un­

certainty associated with applying for off-campus housing at Cedar- ville College may soon be dimin­ished for many students. A new and improved procedure is in place that will ease the frustration and ambi­guity of waiting for approval.

Previously, housing decisions were not even considered until after the deposits deadline of July 1. Weeks of processing forced stu­dents who applied for off-campus permission to wait until mid-July or late August before they were noti­fied of their housing status.

According to Associate Dean of Students Carl Ruby, the new plan is being implemented in response to the students’ requests to eliminate the inconvenience of long waits for housing notification. “This year, we will begin notifying students of their housing status for next fall as early as the last couple of weeks of

May, rather than late July,” Ruby said. The key to this new procedure is for students to submit their appli­cation as early as possible. In order to be considered for the first notifi­cation of approvals, Student Ser­vices must have the completed application by May 1st.

According to Ruby, an antici­pated 300-350 students will be per­mitted to live off-campus for the 1998-99 school year. However, some students still will not be noti­fied until July or August, as the total number of students permitted to live off-campus depends some­what on the enrollment trends for Fall Quarter: the higher the enroll­ment numbers, the more students will be granted permission to move off-campus.

According to Ruby, it is likely that more than 400 students will apply for off-campus housing for the fall of 1998, and as always, not all who apply will be granted per­mission to leave campus. “The de-

learn so much through people,” he said.

Learning about the creation of the Ministry Council under the New SGA was what pulled Brennan over the edge and confirmed his decision to run for chaplain. The council, which he will chair, will include the class chaplains and student repre­sentatives from Christian Ministries. “The council will provide a connec­tion between ministries on cam­pus,” Brennan said.

This year, Matt Rexford and the praise band changed expectations

for worship during SGA chapel. Look for junior guitarist Andy Zieg- enfuss to help out withrthe music on stage in the future. Brennan de­scribed the music for next year as contemporary, upbeat worship.

In his messages, Brennan said he hopes to emphasize, “real genuine Christianity as it’s played out in our day to day lives. In the process of knowing about God, we forget what it genuinely means to know God: to be able to balance out orthodoxy and practicality, information and doctrine,” he said.

several cable news talk-shows and appeared on network programs such as Nightline and Good Morning America. For upholding high ethi­cal standards in the media and busi­ness community at large, the Cedarville Students in Free Enter­prise team presented Thomas with their first-ever Free Enterprise Leader of the Year Award.

.Assistant Professor of Commu­nications Jim Kragel ran the sound and video equipment booth while Thomas was speaking. He fully ap­preciated the journalist’s message. “He told us that being a good Chris­tian means being a good evangelist in whatever field you work in—not being caught up in religiosity, mak­ing a name for yourself, or trying to impress God, but rather getting close to your heavenly Father and letting him truly direct your steps.”

“Seriously consider whether God is calling you, whether he has gifted you, into some of the [institutional] professions. They’ve gone bad not because we fought a war and lost; they’ve gone bad because we with­drew. We criticize the institutions for not reflecting things that they can’treflectbecause we’re no longer there,” Thomas said.

In recent years, a number of Ce­darville graduates have gone into television-related occupations. Se­nior broadcasting major Mark Allen became familiar with Thomas in mass media theory. Allen, who hopes to pursue a career in on-air broadcasting, introduced himself to Thomas after chapel. He was im­pressed with the veteran columnist’s attitude toward his career. “The media has a profound impact on our culture. We need Christians in the

media to give a more conservative viewpoint and, ultimately, a Chris­tian viewpoint. That’s what Cal Thomas does.... He jumps right in there and isn’t afraid or bashful of what he believes, and he really is making a difference,” Allen said.

Thomas encourages students with an interest in print media as well. “First of all, you have to read every­thing the other side reads. I read at least two things a day, the Bible and the New York Times, so I know what each side is doing. I know what they are thinking and why they think it. You have to under­stand history and contemporary events; then you can apply the mind

of Christ and the principles of Scrip­ture to some of these things they are talking about alotmore effectively,” Thomas said.

In conjunction with Thomas’ visit, Dr. Dixon announced a new scholarship to benefit students who plan to pursue media-related ca­reers at Cedarville. The Cal Tho­mas Scholarships, endowed by a Cedarville College trustee and his wife, will award $2,500 to 8 current students for the coming academic year. This is the first time Cedar­ville has offered scholarships of this magnitude for an occupational field. Scholarship winners should be an­nounced by the first week in May.

New SGA officers elected by studentsChristina Abs.(Staff Writer

SGA recently received a face-lift and with that face-lift came the new officers for the 1998-1999 school year. The new officers are Paul Di Cuirci, president; Becky Crosson, vice president; Shawn Brennan, chaplain; Kelly Ford, secretary; and Lance Harkleroad, treasurer.

Junior broadcasting major Di Cuirci will have the opportunity to “Make it Happen,” as his campaign slogan stated.

“The vision is to make SGA something that stu­dents really do care about and want to get involved with. There will be a lot of kinks in the system, but Becky and I will work through these to develop SGA even further,” Di Cuirci said.

According to Di Cuirci, his goals include commu­nicating with the student body by letting them know what their SGA does, more student involvement, facilitating the growth of the restructured SGA, some parties for the student body, and unifying the different organizations and classes on campus.

Di Cuirci ran because he loves being involved, and he saw the SGA as a challenge.

“There are always more challenges for someone to take on. The challenge of the new SGA appealed to me greatly. I want to bring SGA to the students’ level. I love a challenge, and this is one. Another thing is that I will learn even more about working with people. One could never get enough of that,” Di Cuirci said. Di Cuirci’s running mate, junior organizational com­munications major Crosson, will fill the seat of vice president.

“I am extremely excited about working first-hand with the presidents of all the organizations, as this is

a responsibility of the vice president. Through this, I believe that SGA will gain a clear understanding of how each group operates and what each group contributes, not only to Cedarville but to the work of the Lord,” Crosson said.

Crosson sees her goals as unity, a campus-wide excitement for the changes that have been developed, and a fervent focus on Christ.

Ford, a senior professional writing major, will serve Di Cuirci and Crosson as the SGA secretary. Ford sees this opportunity as a chance to develop her writing skills for her career.

“I want to serve my student body with the communi- cational skills and the writing skills that I have. I felt that serving as secretary would be a good chance to do this as well as develop my own skills,” Ford said.

According to Ford, she would like to help the other officers carry out their plans and goals for the next year. She would also like to help make SGA more accessible.

Another new officer for the next school year is treasurer Lance Harkleroad, a junior computer infor­mation systems major. According to Harkleroad, he would like to find new, more efficient ways to handle the budget, no matter how big or small the changes are. Harkleroad would also like to see the student body become united and greater conveniences developed for the students. “As I approach my senior year, I can’t help but wonder at the lessons God has taught me about being a good steward of the resources he has given me. It was this realization—wanting to be used by God in whatever way he sees fit and wanting to use the gifts he has given me for him—that caused me to run for treasurer,” Harkleroad said. .

Progress and development prompts moments of Cedar-nostalgiat o N. Walker

ColumnistMemories are like food. They

can be delicious (like chocolate) or reprehensible (like peas). Others look good on the surface but have a bad aftertaste, much like my friend’s attempt to make chocolate milk with Hershey’s unsweetened cocoa.

What’s my point? I, like many others, get nostalgic—sometimes about really stupid things. Stupid things like my freshman honors class in Milner, where we would exit through the window on nice spring days, just for the sake of leaving through a window. Or eating break­fast at Chuck’s with a friend after both of us had stayed up all night studying philosophy, our study tac­tics reduced to laughing and bang­ing teacups whenever we mentioned the name Jean-Paul Sartre.

Other more worthy relics spark my nostalgia as well, one of these being the Old Chapel, which now bears the inspiring title of Cedar Hall. I walk by the familiar white brick, and sometimes I try to see what is going on inside. Whenever I look in, though, I feel a little sad, not because I hate progress, but because it is like the end of an era in the history of Cedarville College. (I am not sure what that era would be,

but an era nonetheless.) The old hallways that circled the building are gone, as are many of the interior artifacts that made it “the chapel.” It is like watching your pet frog get dissected in biology class.

Please do not misunderstand. I think that all of the developments on campus—the ministry center and the future student union, for ex­ample—are great. It is merely that I believe all good things should be eulogized. This is my tribute to the original James T. Jeremiah Chapel. (Note: Underclassmen should read on, as well, if for no other reason than to get a taste of the recent past. Second-hand memories can be as powerful as the second-hand smoke at Denny’s.)

Wild America. The Old Chapel was a gentle haven for all wildlife, including squirrels, birds, and the occasional dog that wandered in during the 10:00 hour. This tradi­tion has continued in the New Chapel with the white lab mouse that S-Luv (Steve Garcia) bravely disposed of during Steve Camp’s message on worship.

Is this hymnal taken? Chapel was a great way to meet people. If you were late, your only recourse was to squeeze in beside someone you had

never met. This could take a more devious turn; one prospective suitor who knew that I typically ran late to chapel would purposely come late too so he would have a reason to sit nexttome.Don’tlaugh—it worked.

So, are we supposed to sing or not? Satellite chapels had a curious effect on students—much like the effect that poppies had on the char­acters in The Wizard ofOz. If your letter was up and you were assigned to Alford Auditorium, it was im­portant to sit next to a Glenda who would be kind enough to magically awaken you at 10:50.

I’ll be wearing a dandelion in my lapel. Students had many meeting- place options. My personal favor­ites were the J through Ks and the popular “Under the Pres­idents.” Many will remember the infamous theft of Dr. Dixon’s por­trait, the fate of which is still un­known.

Pursuing a passion for pictures.As in those huge pictures behind the removable screen in the Old Chapel. The last picture ever to grace the chapel wall was “Pursu­ing a Passion for Purity,” accompa­nied by a huge gold brick. Because I stared at it every day, my eyes

always gravitated to one line that was thicker than the rest, a strange and annoying habit

Mom, send money. In the Old Chapel, people shamelessly walked in front of the video camera, some­times to say hello to a friend in sat­ellite chapel. Sometimes they would even shove a silly note up to the lens. The professional cameras and large screens in the New Chapel inspire fear and awe into the student body. No longer do people wave or unwittingly have deep conversa­tions directly in front of the camera.

Dixon, Paul Dixon. Back in the old days, there were no drive-in sized screens in the chapel, just the one screen that raised right before the message. The most memorable screen-raising occasion was, of course, the time someone attached a cardboard cut-out of an armed James Bond to the bottom of the screen. As the screen raised, Agent 007 was aiming at Paul Dixon. The other ramification of the screen­less days is that those who sat near the back could be blessed for a whole Bible conference and not know what the speaker looked like.

Lend me your pews, and I’ll sing you a song. The Old Chapel was a

great place for concerts. No, the sound was not like the great system we have in the New Chapel, but the atmosphere was certainly fun. Mu­sicians like Phil Keaggy, Out of the Grey, and Pinchas Zuckerman graced the blue carpet. In addition, several campus bands got their start in the old chapel, including Com­mon Call (formerly Jack’ B) and the gentle-poets-turned-rock-stars, Treeclimber’s Guild. Of course, there was also Bandemonium . . .

Do not go gentle into that good night. Tony Evans certainly did not go gentle into the power outage of 1995. Seniors will recall the intense message he preached to the student body without lights or sound sys­tem. Bob “Forrest Gump” Rohm nearly got a chance to recreate this memory a couple of weeks ago.

Now, as the fate of the steeple is unknown and the building will be re-bricked to match the rest of cam­pus, progress marches on, in her good and much needed way. But I still tip my hat to the Old Chapel. May it be remodeled in peace.

Students rate Cedarville among top five CCCU schools in nationCarol Marks Lead Writer

In an effort to determine the level of student satisfaction at Cedarville, 296 Cedarville College students took a national survey from the Coalition of Christian Colleges and Universities (CCCU) last fall. The Student Satisfaction Inventory consisted of more than 100 items. Students who were randomly cho­sen to take the test determined how important each of the items was to them and then decided how satisfied they were in that area.

The composition of the Cedar­ville test group almost perfectly represented the student body male- female ratio. Approximately 55 percent of the sample group was female while 44 percent was male. Ruby said, “One area where we were complimented by the CCCU was on the composition of the sample. We can be very sure that the survey results generally reflect the opinion of the student body at large.”

Out of the 84 participating col­leges, Cedarville was ranked num­

ber 1 in the nation in two important areas: Career Services and Library Resources and Services. Carl Ruby, Associate Dean of Students and also the chairm an of a committee that plans the National Assessment Conference for the CCCU, said, “The fact that we are number one in Career Services and Library Resources and Services is outstanding. It reflects the level of commitment that the college has to these services and the quality of the staff that we have been able to attract.

“Both of these departments have staff who are eager to help students and both of them have made very good use of technology to increase service and efficiency,” Ruby said. Career Services offers students a helpful home page which they can utilize in their rooms. OhioLINK has significantly broadened the repertoire of books the Cedarville Library offers students.

Computer labs, reasonable bill­ing policies, and the selection of food in the cafeteria were some of the other 11 areas in which Cedar­

ville ranked among the top 5 in the coalition. “The purpose of the study is to improve retention,” Ruby said. “Once a student selects Cedar­ville College, we want to do all that we can to help them finish their program and experience success.” The survey measures student satis­faction by gauging the gaps be­tween the level of importance and the level of satisfaction noted by students. Those areas which show the largest gaps indicate a need for improvement.

Another sign of Cedarville’s suc­cess was that Cedarville was be­neath the coalition average in only 2 out of over 90 areas: the pres­ence of a comfortable student union and the availability of financial aid. After the annual update from Dr. Dixon a few weeks ago, Cedarville students know that a student union will become a reality in 2000. Dixon also explained that Cedarville re­mains one of the least expensive coalition schools, in part because of a conservative approach to finan­cial aid. Since funding for financial aid for some students would come

through additional charges to every student, the overall price of Cedar­ville (just under $ 15,000 next year) remains significantly lower than col­leges that offer much more finan­cial aid.

While Cedarville assesses the comparisons and differences be­tween its results and the 84 partici­pating Coalition Colleges and Universities, it pays special atten­tion to three schools: Taylor, Wheaton, and Messiah. Ruby said, “We picked these schools because they are respected schools, known for high quality and strong reten­tion.” Out of the 20 survey items that Cedarville students considered most important, Cedarville students were significantly more satisfied than students at Taylor, Wheaton, and Messiah in 15 areas. In the remaining five areas, student satis­faction was equal at all four institu­tions.

Ruby said, “The idea for doing this [Student Satisfaction Inventory] originated at an assessment confer­ence held here at Cedarville two years ago.” This was Cedarville’s

second year to participate in the survey. Last year, Cedarville was only able to compare its results with four-year private schools in gen­eral. This year, however, Cedar­ville was able to compare its results with other CCCU schools. “The advantage of this time is that we were able to make more relevant comparisons to the types of schools that our students might consider as alternatives,” Ruby said.

“The fact that Cedarville partici­pated in this survey attests to the importance that the administration places on student input. Ultimately, our goal is to identify areas where our service to students can becomeeven stronger,” Ruby said.______

M OC changes name, adds teams this summer

Pete bednarekSports Writer

As of July 1, 1998, the 50-year- old Mid-Ohio Conference will have a new name and officially include 6 new teams, making it, with 15 mem­bers, the largest NAIA conference in the country. The conference’s Council of Presidents announced this two-phase expansion process and the new conference title on March 12. TheMOC will change its name to the American Mideast Con­ference (AMC).

The current members of the MOC are Cedarville College, Malone Col­lege, Mount Vernon Nazarene Col­lege, Ohio Dominican College, the University of Rio Grande, Shawnee State University, Tiffin University, Urbana University, and Walsh Uni­versity.

The first phase, which will be in place for the 1998-1999 school year, will add the following three schools: Geneva College, Beaver Falls, Penn.; St. Vincent College, Latrobe, Penn.; and Notre Dame College, Cleveland, Ohio. The three other schools that have been approved for membership and will begin com­peting in the following academic year are Wilberforce University, Ohio; Point Park College, Pitts­burgh, Penn.; and Seton Hill Col­lege, Greensburg, Penn.

The MOC, until this point, has only consisted of schools from the state of Ohio but will now take on the new market of the Pittsburg area in addition to its established pres­ence in the Columbus region. The new conference will have seven championship sports for men and seven for women, although two schools—Seton Hill College and Notre Dame—will only compete in the women’s athletics. Not all

schools will have teams compete in every sport offered by the con­ference.

The changes in the league will directly affect each of Cedarville’s athletic programs in different ways. Most coaches are excited about the new additions and op­portunities. Kathy Freese, head coach of the women’s basketball team, said, “It is going to make our already strong women’s basket­ball conference even stronger. Geneva and St. Vincent have very strong Division I programs.”

The head coach of the men’s team, Jeff Reep, had similar thoughts on the subject. “The com­petition will definitely get a lot tougher with the teams being added. We know that Geneva has had an excellent program for a number of years,” he said.

The addition of some Division I schools will put some changes into the post season as well. “I am thrilled that the addition of D I schools will allow us to have our own D I con­ference tournament rather than par­ticipate in the regional tournament,” Freese said.

It is difficult to predict with great precision just how the new confer­ence configuration will affect each one of Cedarville’s athletic pro­grams, and some of the coaches are still in the process of gathering in­formation about the teams that they will face on a regular basis begin­ning next season. A few things are sure, though. The bus rides will get a bit longer for a number of road trips, and in a few years, the letters MOC will mean nothing to younger students. Cedarville will enter the next 50 years of athletics under the name American Mideast Confer­ence.

Soccer teams seek coaches for 1998-99_____ Chmtina Abbs __________

Staff WriterAfter the first season of the women’s soccer pro­

gram, the team is already making changes for next year. One of the major changes is the head coaching position.

Associate Professor of Physical Education John McGillivray is taking over the position that Dave Dillon held this year. McGillivray has been the head coach of the men’s soccer team since 1974. He was inducted into the NAIA hall of Fame in 1993 and has compiled a 215-197-27 record in his 24 years of coaching here. He is a soccer chairman of the Mid-Ohio Conference. McGillivray has also led eight teams to Mid-Ohio conference titles.

During the 1997 school year, when the team was just a club team, McGillivray stepped in as women’s coach while the athletic department was still looking for a leader. For various reasons, McGillivray decided to fill the empty position this year.

"With the events that have taken place in our department—Roger (Swigart) working closely with me and Coach Dillon leaving—it seemed the right

thing to do. We needed to find someone to coach the women’s program,” McGillivray said.

The department is looking at possibilities for a new men’s head coach as well. This could possibly be assistant coach Roger Swigart, who has coached under McGillivray for two years now.

Dave Dillon, who was the women’s first head coach, is moving to Nashville, Tenn., where his wife received a job promotion. Dillon is currently working on his doctorate in education. He would like to con­tinue coaching soccer there.

Assistant coach to Dillon, Dawn Wambold will continue working with the women’s program as the women’s assistant coach. According to McGillivray, ihe would like to build upon the foundation that was already established and see the women play at ahigher level.in the 1998 fall season. He would also like the opportunity to challenge the women spiritually.

“My satisfaction is working with the athletes and seeing them improve. When they are able to do something better than before then I know that I have been successful as a coach,” McGillivray said.

The women’s team will be holding try-outs May 9 to decide on the team for next year.

Erin Doss Staff Writer

The 1998 women’s softball team is small and young, fielding only 10 players—5 of whom are freshmen.

The team became smaller when freshman pitcher Angie Fraley sus­tained a shoulder injury after pitch­ing two games over Spring Break. Junior Bonnie Schaefer now pitches every game until Fraley returns.

Head Coach Dave Gaffner said that with only nine players, “No one can get hurt, and some are playing hurt.”

Junior outfielder Noella Fisher said, “We’ve been fighting injuries all season. Everybody’s just hang­ing on.”

The Lady Jackets have played some close games, and Coach Gaffner is pleased with their effort.“We had a couple of heart- breakers on Tuesday,” he said in reference to April 7’s double­header against Tiffin, when Ce­darville lost two close games, 3-2 and 2-0. “Bonnie pitched well, and the team played well. We’ve had some close games that have been within reach.”

The Lady Jackets have three players with batting averages of over .300. Freshm an M aria Lattanzio leads the team with a .441 average. Coach Gaffner is happy with Maria’s play as well as that of the other freshmen. “I’ve been pleased with how the

freshmen have come out,” he said. “I know it’s hard as a freshman, but they ’ ve done well at picking it up. I ’m pleased with their progress.”

Coach Gaffner spends much of his time at Ohio University, working for his doctorate, and is grateful for assis­tant coaches Casey Wood and Gary “Woody” Herron. Wood and Herron attend games and practices, even when Coach Gaffner cannot be there.

Fisher said that the team is focused on playing for God’s glory. After ev­ery game, the team gathers around home plate, and each player puts one foot on the base. They pray together and then say, “For him.”

“That’s our goal— whether we win or lose,” Fisher said. “To play for his glory.”

Students qualify to run at NAIA national marathon in OklahomaLaura Hammond

Staff WriterTrack runners Jill Breckenfeld,

Rebecca Jenks, and Eric Crawford qualified for the NAIA National Marathon when competing in the 33rd annual half-marathon at Ohio University in Athens, Ohio, on Sun­day, March 5. On Saturday, May 23, they will run the NAIA Nation­als Marathon in Tulsa, Okla.

Although both women had dif­ferent running goals, Breckenfeld and Jenks finished nearly simulta­neously in 1 hour, 30 minutes, and 50 seconds. Since qualifying for nationals last spring at the mara­thon in Traverse City, Mich., Breckenfeld experienced no pres­sure except that she hoped to break her former record of 1 hour and 35 minutes.

She said, “Truthfully, I’ve always thought that the marathon would be the only race that I could compete at the national level. I ran several half marathons in high school and thus had some experience with longer distances. I think this race will af­fect my track season positively be­cause it has built my confidence. The Lord has just been blessing my running, and I’m really excited to see where he’s going to take me next.”

After just returning from the Hon­duras during Winter Quarter, Jenks sim ply raced to encourage Breckenfeld. Breckenfeld said,

“During the race, Becca was a huge encouragement to me. Around the fourth mile, she started reciting words to songs like ‘You Are My All in All ’ and hymns such as ‘There Is a Redeemer.’ Then I’d say the next verse after she said the first one. That really helped me to focus on the Lord throughout the entire race. I was pretty amazed when I realized that we kept a strong and steady pace. I ’m so thankful God gave us the grace to run together and exhort one another.” Jenks said, “Jill and I truly wanted God to re­ceive the glory no matter what the results of our race. With other run­ners nearby, we prayed to be a sin­cere testimony to them as well as encouragers to one another. Truly witnessing is the most compelling reason to compete wholeheartedly.”

Both Breckenfeld and Jenks did not complete any unusual workouts prior to their half m arathon. Breckenfeld kept her mileage ap­proximately 40-50 miles per week while Jenks ran nearly 35 miles per week in Honduras. Since track started, they both ran seven to eight miles, five days a week, and two intense speed workouts with the other distance runners.

While Breckenfeld ran competi­tively throughout high school, Jenks only joined track during her senior year of high school. Breckenfeld vastly improved her times during her senior year and realized her running talent was a gift from the

Lord. As a college runner today, she said, “I have been a good stew­ard of the gift he has given me, but I know that without his grace, I ’d never be running what I am today.” Jenks also rejoices that God has glorified himself through various avenues in her running. “The Lord has taught me the value of self­discipline and persistence even in the midst of pain. Running has become an enjoyment to me pri­marily because when I’m alone I can pray, and when I’m with friends I can have fellowship,” Jenks said.

Besides drawing strength from the Lord, Breckenfeld also at­tributes their success to encourag­ing loved ones. Coming from a family with two uncles, an aunt, and brother who run, Breckenfeld has definitely found support in her own running.

Breckenfeld said, “When I was in eighth grade, my Aunt Carol convinced me to join her on a run.I lasted only six minutes, yet she never gave up having confidence in my ability. Today she always is excited to hear aboutmy new times, and she always tells my story to her own junior high cross country and track teams.” Jenks expressed her appreciation for cross country coach Elvin King. “He has always been faithful in encouraging me to reach that balance in working wholeheartedly,” Jenks said.

Breckenfeld and Jenks hope to compete occasionally after gradu­

ation. As a junior who plans to teach elementary or junior high school, Breckenfeld realizes she will not run nearly as much after college, but she still anticipates competing in some road races and marathons. Jenks, who will gradu­ate with a Bible degree this spring, hopes to attend graduate school and obtain a degree in Biblical counseling, while training for the triathlon.

Crawford, a senior Bible major, completed 13.1 miles in 1 hour, 13 minutes, and 25 seconds. Before the race, Crawford realized he would have to run a 5:45 mile pace in order to qualify for nationals. The first 5 miles, he ran in 5:25 to 5:30 and then stayed under 5:45 for the remaining miles.

All winter, Crawford trained by running a 13-16 mile run once a week and 3-5, one-mile repeat workouts. He said, “My wife Kim was my main inspiration. At times,I wanted to give up. Since I am not only married but also a father to our baby daughter Kayla, I chose not to compete in indoor track be­cause I had to work.

"Between work, school, study­ing, quiet time with God, being a father, and loving my wife, the last thing I wanted to do at times was to go out on a cold Saturday morning and run for almost two hours. How­ever, God used my wife to help me see the end results: time with the guys on the team, a trip to Nation­

als, and giving Kim an opportunity to be a part of the team, too, by being my wife,” Crawford said.

According to King, Crawford is the first varsity athlete to be both a competitor and father. Crawford said, “If I can be a father and an athlete, the others who aren’t married and who don’t haVe children can attend col­lege, run faithfully, and love God wholeheartedly.”

Time management is a daily chal­lenge for Crawford. He said, “Some­times it’s frustrating to realize that if I could just study a few more hours and add a few extra miles to my workouts, I could be a better student and athlete. However, God has taught me to offer my grades and running to him and realize that his love for me is not based on my success.”

Currently, Crawford is trying to find a one-year pastoral internship after graduation. He said, “As one who is seeking to go into the Pastor­ate, I know from Dr. Warren that a major theme of good pasturing is balance.

"I accept my responsibility to be a faithful steward of the time God has given me to fulfill each role. I leave the results of each area in his hands. My prayer is that my life will be a testimony to Kayla so that when she becomes a woman of God, she may serve our Lord in the most effective and balanced manner possible,” Crawford said.

Junior mathematics/secondary education major Joe MeliishWhat is your response to Cal Thomas' chapel address?"It is something that I have been waiting to hear for a long time. We have isolated ourselves so much from society that we no longer influence it. Cal Thomas is a good example of someone who has not isolated himself from society and, therefore, influenced it."
