Students were bombarded with devotionals, Soft Rock Cafes, and art shows tto name just a fewl. Announcements filled the chapel pro- grams, and signs covered the Student Center walls all seeking student involvement. However not every student participated in every activity. While some went to the pump- kin carving contest, others went to see the juggler. Yet, the different activities created memories as students learned about themselves and became closer to their friends. I . - Sharon Bowles Ed Wilson ; pholo by Bill Tripp ofessor of Chemistry, Ed Wilson photographedi nearly every student and event at Harding. His face was always half- -way hidden behind his 35mm camera. However, this was just one way he served students; he also was a caring teacher. Since he photographed so many school events, he grew to know students not even in his field of study. He always went out of his way to show concern for the students offering a friendly smile or encouraging hug. 2 4 GlunCC.s at Student Life swan...

'1 How do students go about choosing the classes they register for during the week REGISTRATION: .. Before registering for classes, students should check this list carefully. If the Tyesis 11 add up to four or less it is probably safe to take the class. If the yes 5 add up to between five and ten, the class is questionable but could be taken with caution If the ltyesis add up to more than 11, the student should turn around and literally run from the class because it will be murderously hard. 1. Does the class meet before chapel or after lunch? Is the class numbered above 200? PPP Wednesday or Thursday? 990993 Does the professor consider tests necessary? Does the professor take roll?

Wop by Wop This is the tale of one distraught H.U. student who wishes to remain anonymous. For our pur- poses, we will call her Igora. Igora, being a Harding freshman, naturally wanted to be in- volved with as much as possible. Having never given blood before, she had nothing to dread; it was all a new experience. Off to the Administration Building she went. Giv- ing blood was no prob- lem. Needle in, bag fill- ed, needle out, no prob- lem! Immediately after signing away a large por- tion of one of natureis most precious fluids, Ig- ora proceeded to go to her club meeting. After going to her meeting in the Bible Building, she walked home to Kendall, up three flights of stairs, into her room, and then passed out. It was three hours before her beloved roommate came home to find her lying lifelessly on the dorm room floor. Panic was the understatement of the Will adding the class require begging andlor crying? hour. Igorais roommate immediately summoned all nursing majors who inhabited Kendall. When Igora awoke, she gazed upward only to find seven panic stricken student nurses hovering over her. Their remedy? Grape Juice. Igora was handed an eight ounce glass of grape juice, every hour, on the hour, for twenty- four hours. tCan you say sick of grape juice? I knew you couldD Will Igora ever give blood again? Maybe, maybe not. Will she ever enjoy grape juice again? 1111 let you decide! - Jennifer Terry

after curfew. Late permis- sion was very difficult to obtain, and usually had to get it from the manager or assistant manager. And probably the hardest to digest - no more signing out to other dorms during the week. Regardless of the posi- tion of ments dorm residents in the situation, rule enforcement was felt by the long-sheltered men of Harding. - Phillip Tucker On the floor. Chapel devo- tionals strived to be more personal for students. To achieve this goal, Mr. Cliff Sharp Ieads singing from a microphone brought to the students level. - photo by Bill Tripp. I Bits Probably the most dramatic transition we faced this year was the transfer of leadership into the able hands of Dr. David Burks. We ex- pected to see many familiar edifices undergo facelifts; it was apparent that the change in com- mand would bring with it new alterations to man time-worn conventions. One of these as the chapel format. Since Harding began, so has chapel. Its foun- ding purpose was singular: spiritual ediflca- tion. Yet, Harding aged, and the concept of chapel began to take on an ex- panded definition. The ultimate goal never changed - its focus re- mained always with the Spirit - yet chapel grew also into a medium for mass communication and 5 Bytes: I Besides the computer labs already opened I in the Science Building and the Business I Center, two new labs opened up on campus. I The first lab, the Ganus lab, was tem- OI porarily located on the first floor of the l Ganus Building before moving to the l American Heritage in the spring. It was I developed and requested by faculty members I in the departments of comunications, art and I home econmics for courses needing design I and word processing. ltI use the lab during classes and for my I own personal use. I do term papers, class I assignments and various advertisements for I the Student Association Committee? said I Craig Cheatham. l The lab contained 20 Apple Macintosh OI Plusses, four Apple Imagewriter dot l printers, and one Apple Laserwriter printer. I The other lab, called the writing lab, was I located on the third floor of the American I Studies Building. It was equipped with five I Macintoshes and emphasized improving I writing skills. Though open it gave priority to English and education I students working on assignments. I Both labs served students as they worked I on graphics or page designs, and typed I themes, articles or papers. to all students, - Sharon Bowles entertainment. This year we observed a new unpredictability in the devotional period. Suddenly, the traditional two songs-prayer-scripture reading forumla was replaced with a variable program which set no prescriptions 011 format and no limit ont he number of songs sung in any one devotional. Song leaders and speakers were brought down from their ttivory towersil on stage and began conducting chapel from floor-mikes at eye level with the stu- dent body. One welcomed change was the elimination of uannouncement day. Before, Wednesdays had been reserved exclusively for the exchange of cam- pus news and infromae tion. This year, campus news was spread thinly Compute me. The new graphics lab gave students the I Chance to create graphics on the computer.

All the while, we knew that these shifts in chapel service stemmed from our new presidents in- terest in ttintegrating faith and learning and would undoubtedly serve to foster our spiritual maturity. In efforts to reach this end, some things were trimmed from the chapel itinerary Yet we never lost the fellowship, the opportunity to commune each morning with friends. Neither did we lose the other motivator - ten-absence limit. - Bill Everett

The event, directed by Tim Bruner with Alumni and Parent Rela- tions, coincided with high school day. During the weekend, parents were en- couraged to attend classes with their students on Friday and encouraged on Saturday to at- tend programs and special classes. Saturday night highlighted the weekend when parents were invited for iAn Evening with the Presi- dent. In Harding Park behind Dr. and Mrs. David Burksi home, a complimentary barbe- que dinner for parents and students was served. The administrative staff and faculty members served the food. Because of the overall success of Parents Weekend, it will become a yearly event. - Sharon Bowles What could be more satisfying on a warm Oc- tober Wednesday night than a calorie-loaded banana split supreme? Thanks to Galaxy and Ju Go Ju social clubs, the We a scream craving for ice cream was 1 filled. After the 5:30 church service by Mike Cope, 274 students strolled to the student center seeking ice cream. There, they were treated to Yarnellis Ice Cream, bananas, and toppings for only $1.50. The $100 profit the clubs earned went to the Italian missionaries. In previous sales they had earned over $200, but because the price was Cheese.

Besides earning money for the missionaries, the project also served as a social outlet.
