TERTER NICE WAY T0 Stuffing birds playing poker with Dr. Gorry . . . printing a picture of Snoopy with the minicomputer learning the basic of flying visiting the Supreme Court of the nation . . . speaking for per- formance . , . improving test-taking-skills . . . these activities not normally done dur- ing the regular semester are all a part of BCC's unique program, Interterm. Inter- term is a time for professors and students alike to delve into new and different stud- ies in a relaxed, informal atmosphere. In- terterm gets its name because it comes in January, right between the fall and spring semesters. Due to the fact that Interterm atten- dance is optional, many students elect not to come. Empty becomes the word that describes the campus during January - empty cafeteria, empty dorms, empty parking lots . . . empty campus. Although always being able to find a parking space and whizzing right through the cafeteria line to get food is heaven, living in a suite with no company other than yourself is not always a particularly joyful experience. Interterm, a unique but empty time, is a nice way to spend January.

The dining hall was an exquisite expression of the season's sweetest messages. Tall green trees sparkled with shimmer- ing snow and garlands of white and silver held near fluffy bells that pealed soundles- ly, reverently, joyfully, and friendly. Ta- bles were laden with results of the skills and ingenuity of Mr. Ted Fortier and his Food Services Staff. Grandly, and with dignity appropriate to the occasion, the lines of people began to pass through the receiving area where Dr. Hamrick and Chairman of the Board and Mrs. Franklin Mason awaited the stu- dents, faculty, staff, alumni, administra- tors and friends of the college. The num- ber in attendar ce exceeded all expecta- tions. ... up-f-' . I- 'T' Lfzfftr f'i'f?-1 ' Planned weeks ahead of time, the evening was a tribute to the inspiration of Mrs. Margaret Hamrick. Mrs. Lil Baldwin's astonishing talents had, with long labor and love, translated the en- tire visual effect of the dining hall into a mood that was a request of the Col- lege's First Lady. Our beautiful First Lady, however, with her warmth and delicacy of manner was unable to at- tend. Because of recent illness her strength would not permit the long standing to greet her guests. However, there was no doubt in anyone's mind that her love for Baptist College was the spark that brought the event into being and it was her faith and her trust in the Christ whose Birthday we celebrated that caused all our hearts to be warmer, happier . .. . ,L
