And it is a Biblical emphasis whose time has come in America. Smal1 Christian colleges like Bethel have a special opportunity to model this on campus in preparing students for places of influence for Christ. Here assertive leadership can give way to serving leadership. In a Christian community there is a need for initiative, resourcefulness, and drive but it is best clothed with leadership by force of substantive knowledge, personal integrity and caring concern. The tov el of Christ is the symbol of both loving service and dynamic leadership. And I praise God that it is to be seen everywhere at Bethel. Carl H. Lundquist President 4 Intro Above: Two Bethel students enjoying the sunset out on the dock. Left: A glimpse of the little white church through the trees. Above: A display of Fall colors in the trees along Seminary Trai1. 5 Intro Above: A view of the circle lot at night as the Bethel buses pass by. 6 Intro The beauty that surrounds Bethel College helps to make it a very special place. The trees that line its winding roads, the hills that define its landscape, and the gentle ripples in the water of Lake Valentine are all a part of God's creation... and it is here for all to enjoy.

Above: Bethel's freshman dorms, Bodien and Edgren. 7 Intro I You are a freshman on your way to a new place to live, learn, grow, and you are scared to death. What lies ahead? The first week that you will spend at school is what they call Welcome Week, and you wonder what is really going to happen during that time. If only you could look into your future and discover what is in store for you, you would toss away your worries and fears and dive into the week with enthusiasm. Moving in, meetings, skits, parties, concerts, movies and banquets will soon occupy your time and prepare you for your new beginning. Above: Welcome Week leaders recieve gifts from their staff.

Be it food for the hungry, prayer for the captive, or money for SNP, its primary coal is to serve Christ as we seek to make Him Lord of our lives. 11 Intro Below: Ken Cooper sharing his ice cream with Ethan Pole. Below right: Arnie Abens and Pam Bakken enjoy the beach in Israel. it . Sharing at Bethel means sharing your time, talents, knowledge, advice, and most of all yourself.

Looking down into my tea, 1 saw an ant in the middle trying to swim for the side. I closed my eyes and repeated, Where He leads me, I will follow; what He feeds me, I will swallow. Eating and drinking strange things is only one of the adjustments an SMPer has to make. There are often language barriers, different philosophies and values, and loneliness at being away from friends and family. Yet, there is fulfillment too. Fulfillment in seeing God reach beyond language barriers, in having lived in another culture, and in growing and being humbled as a Christian. SMP helps send out over 30 students to summer mission projects throughout the world. Because the SMPers are Bethel students, SMP seeks to raise over one-third of the SMPers funds from the student body. God, v orking through Bethel people, remains faithful. After the SMPers return from their summer mission, they are divided into committees. These committees then recruit and orientate prospective SMPers and help raise funds for the next summer. 21 Left: Jim Fabre was a volun- teer Sunduloi tour guide for the all campus visit day.

Above right: Steve Whittaker admissions counselor for Bethel, takes a break from interviewing prospective students. ,Lower right: Rick Purifoy, former Sundi, helps out with all campus visit day. 22 Sundouloi is a Greek word meaning fellow servant. It was chosen to represent the spirit of !2 sophomore and junior Bethel sutdents who volunteer their time to serve the needs of prospective Bethel students. The Admissions Office has found that the most influential criteria for choosing a college is often a campus visit. Sundi helps to provide a dynamic campus visit by giving campus tours, taking students to classes of their interest, and occasionally hosting them overnight. The Sundouloi also meet weekly for Bible study and prayer which gives meaning and impetus to their responsibilities. 23 Below: Brent Bohne and Yoko Ogata enjoying themselves at the ISA banquet.

Below: Larus Maxwell is deep in concentration as he researches for a presentation to be given to Senate. Tuesday evening. By 6:10 a sufficient quorum has arrived in the Listening Room. The meeting is called to order. Many of the senators are now feeling that Student Senate is ineffective. They cannot always see the ramifications of the decisions they make. Should SMP and Campus Crusade receive equal funding? Should Senate support additional orphans? Is it worth the extra money to keep the library open longer hours? Where in the building would additional clocks be advantageous? Should a lifestyle statement revision be suggested to the administration? Should art censorship be allowed at Bethel? Is it Senate's business to make a statement on the El Salvador issue? Maybe the staff and administration would make the same decisions and put the same work and research into setting up projects; maybe they don't need to be done at all. But there are always students willing to do that work. ?8 Under the direction of Charles Olson, 3ethe1's bend and orchestra have gained respect for their fine quality of music. The instrumental nusic department serves as a beneficial activty for music and non-music majors alike. It allows individual growth in the area of appreciation for music and the arts in general, and is a necessary activity for the preparation of the music educator. The band participated in the Christmas Festival, concerts, instrumentalists in chapel and a spring tour. 29 exPK m in song 30 The many moments of rehearsal. 31 The College Choir, directed by Dr. Robert Berglund, is Bethel's performing group consisting of both men and women. An important aspect of the Choir, and of all of Bethel's groups, is their representation of the College to their public audiences. They participated in many events this year including Festival of Christmas and other Bethel and area concerts, singing in the world premiere of Heinz W. Zimmerman's Missa Prof ana, performing with the Minnesota Orchestra and ended the year with a European Tour. The members of the Choir 1 learn discipline through their participation and in volvement with each other ani are challenged by the high quality level of oerformance expected of them. The Choir is aplace for it's members to enjoy singing and do it to the glory of God. 32 33 I The Male Chorus, directed by Oliver Mogck, is made up of men dedicated to singing to the glory of God.

Losing only three seniors (captain Scott Johnson, captain Steve Kettlekamp, and Steve Larson), the team is looking forward to many returning players to fill the uniforms next fall. Although their record didn't show it, the Royals played the caliber of hockey that was fun to watch. The team emphasized the idea of playing for the glory of God. One of the main points of their philosophy was that there is no such thing as an athletic setback from God's perspective! Situations often termed as such are actually opportunities to trust God to develop them into a mature person. This is the Cause for Gladness.

JV getting mustard-up for the big game. We glorified Sod both on and off the court by using honor calls, demonstrating sportsmanship, praying for the officials and opposing teams, and by using our bodies to the best of our God-given abilities. The team's most special moment was when a Bethel player touched the ball as it went out of bounds. The official did not see her touch it, so she signalled a point for Bethel. Our player approached the official and told her that she had touched the ball and that a side-out should be awarded to the opponent. An opposing player's mouth dropped, An honor call?! You use honor calls?! It was just another example of Bethel's witness of honesty and sportsmanship. Their most exciting game of the season was the victory over Concordia-Moorhead. The scores were very close and Bethel played well. It was a most satisfying win. Coach Book: I wish that someone could have measured my heartbeat and vertical jump that match! The team's slogan, which was also their spiritual goal for the year, was give a Praise Performance. That meant playing in such a way as lo thank the Lord for creating us and giving us athletic talent.

Your thought lies in every crevace of the galaxy. The very Idea is contained within the nenagerie of lights The night will never dim. And I stand below. Too far and too small To comprehend that which I see. Yet, still so intimately near that the Thouqnt Lifts and moves my mind Onto the passing night wind Where it stays and abides with You In visions of perfect peace. Judith Hougen The Influence Of Art God is like On A Theatre Major® a painter. We watch as He puts bright, lovely colors upon the canvas of our lives. Rich reds, oranges, yellows, meditative blues and royal purples captivate our senses. He forms figures and shapes out of these strokes of color--painting the structure of life. We feel good about these shapes and are satisfied with what we first see. God stands back and takes a second look. A change or color here, a little shadow there--high-light, define, re-arrange--another look. Wipe away some highlight, shadow. We protest, not understanding Thomas Hagen why He changed o beautiful paintir He steps back again. He puts c His brushes, sati fied. We sulk, wanting to see a I painting more beal iful than we had I ever imagined. |l The blues of I meditation in His I word grow into thl purples of royaltl We are His childrl heirs to His throH The reds, yellows and oranges testi to the joy He intends for us; yet the greys and blacks bespeak oukj wandering and douofl without Him; the greens our new lif and new beginning Him. He gently takes the canvas and adds a frame perfectly created to accent t beauty of this, His finished work. Eac piece of wood is matched perfectly t draw attention to the work, and to separate this wor' from the surround space. Without t frame, other elements might enter and pervert the painting. He sta back again to vie the effect on His masterpiece. Con-pi eted, the Maste Artist hangs it w which He's hung a the rest of His treasured pieces-mi 11 ions of them. He gazes with pri™ 4 God is like a painter. Annette Hun 84 86 Smash every barrier, Take away every pretence Until there's nothing left But You and me And I can reach out And not stumble. Cry out and not have Only returning echoes of lonely words And I can be so ever mindful of You As to cause my every sense To rise and shout without fear Into a hushed universe I am here and You are God . Judith Houcen 87 Paul Ackerman 3rd Place A RUNNER'S RESSURECTION So often I find myself struggling to keeP running My breathing comes hard and my heart quickens My legs seem to be stone. I will uphold you with my victorious right hand Isaiah 41:10 Suddenly I seem to have new life My breathing comes easier My muscles relax and I continue towards my Gcal; Confident that the Lord is with me. Stride after stride comes harder My mind begins to wander and I begin doubting my ability The miles seem endless As the time wears on I think of Jesus, nailed to a cross for me. I must continue to run my best possible to show Him my thanks for His life. I try to push back the pain and think of other relaxing pastimes but the pain continues to push through It seems as if I have given my all. Suddenly the finish line is within view My heart beats wildly with emotion For I know I have given my all and the Lord has kept His promise. Just when it all seems in despair I hear a voice It seems to be heeding me I struggle so hard to listen Fear not, for I am with you, be not dismayed, for I am your God; I will strengthen you, I will help you. I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith. 2Timothy 4:7 Yes, Jesus is Alive! Chris Schrader z Juan Ortiz English Lit. Major QB He's gone! Oh, woe to us remaining Knights, exhausted, broken, drained. His skill and might exceeded all. To whom now can we turn? The tine is cruel, yea, see the seconds flash on past. We have but moments to shake off our loss. But how, pray? Our salvation lay in his hands, those sure, ne'er-missing hands which from defeat oft times snatched us. Oh, there he flew with speed and moves unequaled, touched by none among our foes. Sunlight glanced quick off his helmet. His armor a hindrance? Nay! My lofted spheroid winged to meet him, the union flawless and complete. But ere this graceful pair returned to grassy earth, a hulking, crushing foe destroyed their smooth flight, slammed them to uncon- sciousness. Gone now, out all, our star; borne away, our dreams of victory encased in his still form. Soft, small relief approaches. Here, boy! Give me water for sweat-drenched lips, a clean cloth for burning face and grimy hands. Time flashes on, men. Our respite is near ended. Gone! Gather round! Rally we must our fatigue-wracked frames, our shattered hopes one final time. One last great onslaught we must unleash, one final charge with seconds remaining. Blue-sixteen, every man out. Fail not to protect me, break on two. Change we must that flashing score, Hawks 14, Knights 10. Curses! To whom to loft that last long bomb?

Laura Phillips Lynn Phillips all Because the night will mean day, and what's right will be mixed with the wrong. when man will be SILENT this is the Day when man will be silent, and has nothing to say, nothing to write. 'tis the Day when children won't play (parents Won't trust them, and they Won't have fun anyway), this is the Day when the intelligent will get kicked for thinking, and Won't get kicks out of pondering, this is the Day when the belligerent will pass for innocent, and nobody will care a cent. the Might will be storming and roaring, while the bustling downtown is up and about, and the rumbling will make the mad laughter come cut. the Night will not conceal the owl, the hyena's howl will be suffocated, and the bowels of evil washed ashore, the Dark will not sparkle anymore, with the lampshade light, the Blue Gloom is off tune; the whirling world is off beat. People will say one thing, and live for another. People will say yes, and it'll mean never. all Because life will mean little, and death will corne come at last, death will Die ir, people's memories, and life will seem to last, in the middle of a booming blast, all Because a little luxury will mean everything, and Supreme bliss ar.d blessedness nothing, all Because friends will love, like those who tread your toes, these who are your very foes; because All the giants of old are crushed under the idolatrous mold; because All the giants of old, are not at present saints, with Faith pure as gold. Dan Blake Senior Year day after day— the same struggles the same hardships— looking up holding tightly to an Unseen Hand- weeks pass-and with an unstilled heart waiting for an envelope that's contents say yes or no to a fantasized future- clinging to the memory of those tiny Chicago miracles— the train, the clouds, the rain and hope- months go by unrealized until a dream of someone scratches at a scar you thought was long healed— and to wonder just how long can you lcve a dead man? years sweep past with a tinge of melancholy a touch of regret— perhaps wondering for but a moment if the right words would have made a difference— yet tomorrow— ever anxious to see what it holds— afraid of failure wary to lave so willing to try but the heart cries yes and the past taunts no— and eternity— the warmth of an Unseen Smile keeps today's frustrations aside yesterday's ghosts in chains and turns tomorrow's anxiety into this moment's faith— Thor Hansen Cindy Oberg 2nd Place Thor Hansen 93 time-- time to learn to grow and to be together. time is beautiful-- until we conform to it's harsh demands. then it becomes an aversion which we despise because it so cruelly interupts our own desires. time becomes an over-powering force that controls our lives, and we are hurt. but they're restrictions we have placed on ourselves, for we have set the tempo and have decided to keep in time-- julia s. thomsen 94 Ooug Barkey Stairs Larry Meegan 96 There is a light within me A light that is not from me People see that light within me and do not see the pain. I am not light! I am dark! I am anger and sadness I am pain and despair. I hurt and I am not comforted No one can help me from this despair • nor lift me forever above it. I am deep and I'm dark and angry and sad. There is a light within me A light that is rot from me The light is heavy within me it does not ease the pain. I've been given a burden of carrying this light It is heavy--can't you see? The light is not from me--not a part of me Yet I must carry it alone in darkness for I am deep and I'm dark and angry and sad. Arise, Shine, for thy light has come. No one lights a lamp and hides it under a bushel. God is light and in Him there is no darkness at all. There is a light within me A light that is not from me People see the light within me and do not see the pain. Listen to me! See me! I am not what you think I am! There is a light within me... But I am not 1ight--can't you see? I have done nothing to make this light! It is not from me! I am deep and dark... And if I said, 'Let the darkness surround me and the light around me be night,1 Even the darkness is not dark to Thee And the night is as bright as the day. There is a light within me A light that glows through the darkness It comes not from me I have been given a burden of light to carry I cannot put it out--it comes not from me. I understand now. There is a light within me This little light of mine. I'm gonna let it shine! Don't you see? There is a light-- within me. Nancy Stromgren GIFT Encouragement, My Lord, The balm my brother needs.

Many of them will leave behind memories of their freshman year, and all the crazy raids they played on the other guys. Some of them will leave behind memories of special events, special speakers, and special friends. For some there will be memories of good times, bad times, hard times, successful times, disapointing times, and growing times. All these memories, whatever they may be, will help them paint a picture of Bethel and what it has meant to them, but thi.y will also help them to realize who they were-and more importantly, who they have become.

I Cor. 12.12 Above: The Bethel student body prepares itself for Chapel. Left: Francis Schaeffer speaks to a captivated Bethel audience. Far left: Jill Briscoe speaks to the Bethel community about dry bones. The process begins with Keith. He formally puts an end to a yet unfinished badminton class by unsheathing his plastic blanket of protection for the floor. Up go bleachers, down go hymnals. Chairs and stage unfold, podium is appropriately placed within hearing distance of the piano, blue and yellow curtains are once again revealed. Mic cords are snaked from piano and podium to unknown regions behind the sanctity of the curtained backdrop. Done. And then sounds go through those mics. Susan and John and Joel and Cindy and Frank inform students and faculty of their student and faculty responsibilities. There is a prayer, a welcome, two verses of a four-versed hymn, and special songs are sung by special students. Introduction. Would you please welcome to Bethel College chapel John White, Josh McDowell, Harry Blamires, Art Holmes, Uawson McAllister, Dr. Francis Schaeffer, John Perkins, Jill Briscoe, Jim Malcolm, Ben Patterson, Bruce Thielemann, Madeline L'Engle, Tony Campolo, Paul Manz...8ig names. Or maybe nervous students present a nervous program-football team, basketball team, theatre arts team. Welcome Week staff, RAs, SMPs, Music department. Missionary people talk about important missionary things. Irv and Mary Stauffer talk about more than missionary things. Faculty-- Taylor, Healy, Finlay, Lee, Lewis, Lawyer, and Co. -- talk about burdens often carried by themselves alone. Or there is a multimedia show; songs sung and sharing sharf ; Jews that are for Jesus and Russians that are not for Russia; elections to be discussed Sturm, Henerman, and Piper speak on behalf of area Reverends; carols are sung appropriately at Christmas and, more appropriately, with Doc's organ; clay pots are throv n with an artist's message; end C. tddy Thomas makes intimate sounds with a piano. Lee Eliason leads worshipful people-hopeful ly --in worship. Benediction . Here comes Keith again. Mic cables recoi1, curtains recurtain, chairs refold, podium and piano return to dark places, hymals and bleachers vanish. Keith and helper van-guish all visible signs that would suggest that anything other than a badminton class occured in the Fieldhouse by eliminating the Left: Dave Horn, Assistant Campus Pastor. floor's protective covering. Archery class begins. So, what do we expect from this routined exercise of chapelry? For many students and faculty, nothing. Others want to learn very significant things about various significant personal causes. Some want simply to experience one aspect of what makes Bethel a very sociable place to be. For many, a worshipped God is invited to spend a short, formal time with a worshipping community. Maybe chapel at Bethel is nothing more or less than what we expect it to be. Maybe it is a 1ittle more than a one-half hour routine that interrupts everyone's business at the worst time of the day. Or maybe it is an opportunity for the Spirit of God to transform the same old time in the same old Fieldhouse-- a routine—into an expression of His ever-changing love for a growing community. Maybe. 131 Right: Cindy and Frank at heme in their office. Below right: The traditional Friday night skates always proved to be fun times.

This year the ;.;ostion was shared by Frank Sanza and Cynthia Stipe. The coordinators start booking concerts and planning their calender of events in April for the following school year. The coordinators have a substantial budget which is utilized under the supervision of the Student Senate and Student Affairs office. This budget, supplemented through various admission charges for events, enables the coordinators to offer a broad and varied social orogram. Concerts, Nik-dag. Spring Formal, Movie Mights, and banquets are just some examples of the activities planned by the Campus coordinators. As the Campus Coordinators for this school year 1980-81, we would like to thank each one of you for your prayers and support throughout the year. It is our hope that this year was special for you and that we helped to add some enjoyment to it. Left: Cindy hard at work put- ting together the monthly newsletter.
