Back to School 4% ee 0«te Dorms were opened and students were unpacking as the 1987-88 school year was about to get under way.

Spiritual Life ii De transformed S piritual life on campus at Milligan is a point of concern to students, faculty and HI administration. Because of its affiliation with the Christian churches does not automatically create the ideal Christian atmosphere at the college, many students do actively seek to increase spiritual growth on their own. The Religious Affairs Committee was therefore quite active this year, providing opportunities for students to enrich their college lives through Christian study and fellowship. Religious Affairs organized several activities which occured regularly throughout the year, including weekly vespers services and small Bible study groups. Special occassions included an all night lock-in at a local church and a pizza party for new students second semester. The highlight of the second semester was By Laura Bennett Spiritual Emphasis Week, during which the committee had planned activities each night, ranging from a banana-split party to a communion service. Christianity has always been a part of Milligan College, but all too often it has been overshadowed by other aspects of college life . Fortunately as demonstrated by the Religious Affairs Committee, a significant effort was made on the part of the students this year to bring spirituality back to the forefront of life on campus. Do not be conformed to this world but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that you may prove what is the will of God ...
