These rough edges often showed themselves in friendly disagreements or sweats in the Ad building. But the daily life, from Chapel to pizza after 11 p.m., proved to be a shaping tool that chiseled off the rough edges, turning chunks of emotion and mind into hearts for God. The things that students did in their spare time supplied them with a chance to get away from busy schedules and heavy responsibilities. But these things also pro- vided students with opportunities to be changed and challenged. Friendships de- manded time and practical jokes called for an understanding laugh. Day by day hearts were smoothed by the shaping tool of time. 2 Student Life John and Jill Boggs enjoy the North Caro- lina countryside and a new friend on a fall weekend away. A gradual change takes place in students at Bryan. A fantastic make- up job by Kim Prieto helps lioness Dawn Shooke look the part. This queen of the forest helped get the crowd roaring at home. On Their Own Time What did the average Bryan college student do when all the classes were over, all the meetings had been attended, and all the homework was finished? (a) developed relationships (b) hung out (c) ate (d) slept (e) all of the above The correct answer is (e) all of the above. After everything that needed to be done was either completed or ignored, stu- dents had a variety of choices as to how to deal with the concept of having free time. A priority on campus was to produce meaningful relationships, involving both God and friends. Personal devotions, as well as corporate Bible studies and pray- er groups, helped io draw the students closer to God. At the same time, a closer walk with God helped to build stronger. more significant relationships. Another great way to use free time was to hang out in such socially renowned areas as the Lion ' s Den. Not only did stu- dents enjoy playing pool, ping-pong, and foosball, but there was also the snack bar and the big screen television. Sometimes on weekends the Student Union rented movies and showed them. But this did not mean that students spent all their time on campus. Many hours were spent in Dayton, at such places as Wal-Mart, Pizza Hut, and Red Food. People also went to Chattanooga to watch movies and shop in the malls. Everyone had his own ideas about the best way to use free time. Because of that, the activities enjoyed were are ex- tremely varied, ranging from talking on the phone to singing in the stairwell, from playing Rook to playing hide-and-go- seek in Rudd Auditorium.

Campus Life 5 General Admission s) ' - -■ Just before the movie begins, the crowd ' s anticipa- tion is evident. Hey — what are you doing tonight? This question was asl ed more often than What homework is due tomorrow? and usually the answer was not Homework — yuk! Bryan students found many ways to fill free time, either relaxing in the Den with The Cosby Show or MacGyver, or with such Student Union movies as: PROJECT X, PRINCESS BRIDE, LADY- HAWKE, E.T., MAN FROM SNOWY RIV- ER, STAR TREK IV, and SAVANNAH SMILES. Many students also invested money, time and lots of gas to go to the many concerts that came and went this year. Into the Chattanooga and surrounding areas came: Twila Paris, Glad, DeGarmo and Key with the Altar Boys, Laura Comp- ton, Sandi Patti, Harvest, Stryper, Amy Grant and Michael W. Smith, Aerosmith, Guns and Roses, and the Romantics. To each of these concerts, at least several students went and thoroughly enjoyed themselves. S Student Life 1 With fall comes Harvest.

Calendar 9 WORKIN ' FOR A LIVIN ' p, The College Work Program played a vital part in shaping students to be ser- vants for Christ. Not only did the various jobs in the programs aid students finan- cially, but they also provided an opportu- nity to serve. These opportunities, among others, included cafeteria and janitorial work, aiding a member of the college staff, or maintaining our campus by serv- ing on the grounds crew. Serving carried with it great responsi- bility. This year ' s student workers proved their dependability by working efficiently. Their hard work was reflected by the cleanliness of the buildings and campus, the excellent food service, and the con- tinuous compliments made by college staff ?rd students. Working v ith the proper attitude is very important. A job is so much easier if it is approached positively. Debbie Hussey, a janitorial worker, said the following about her work: It ' s a really nice job. I wish I had more hours. The flexibility of the hours is great. It ' s also very convenient to work somewhere I don ' t have to travel to, since I don ' t have a car. Even through the cut in many student workers ' hours due to the college ' s budget cuts, the workers still had positive outlooks. Con- cerning her cut in hours. Amy Barth said, I only got one or two hours per week cut, so it didn ' t affect me greatly. I won ' t get as much money, of course, but it ' s kind of nice having the extra free time. Students involved in the College Work Program should be commended. These workers did more than earn money to fi- nance their education. They took on re- sponsibilities that will help them mature. Moreover, they optimistically served us — Bryan College. Melissa says there Dr. Cuthbertson.

' •2 Relationships r m, ' Those Special People The ones you can ' t eat without. The ones with whom you spend your week- ends. The ones you have to have beside you in class. The ones you have to have to have class. These are the people — peo- ple with whom we each have relation- ships. Yes, there is a lot of emphasis on relationships and on our improving them, but maybe all this emphasis shows us how important relationships really are. We all strongly agree that relationships — people — make Bryan life enjoyable. The guys have their comrades with whom they wrestle, on into the night. The women have their dorm talk, also on into the night. Then there ' s the wonderful ad- venture some enjoy of laser tag, which transforms Rudd into the den of danger and civil students into guerrillas. And cer- tainly not least, there ' s our favorite thing we all like to share together — food. But the activities that we enjoy, however strange, with those we love which bring us together are not always a game or a food party. There are many days when we disagree, then make up, and always learn the art of compromise. The relationships are never ending — best friends to whom we pour out our hearts, the good friends with whom we share many laughs, the teachers from whom we learn — in and out of the books. Each day we learn that we need each other. A number of students learned how much they needed each other as over ten couples were engaged in the fall! Through daily experiences as we rub shoulder with one another, we are growing and be- ing SHAPED to be SERVANTS of each other and our Lord. ff ' S ' i ' l fX ;: - te-- Heidi Niehoff and Sylvia Suganandam enjoy one of the best pastimes — food.

Titus and Cindy Freuler show how they bear each other ' s burdens. The Married Life Ever wonder what it ' s like to be married — at Bryan? Many students are envious, yet many say it is not for them — that they aren ' t ready, or that they couldn ' t flirt anymore! But what is it really like to be a married student? Many wonder when they see a couple around school who have tied the knot — is it prison or paradise — and how do you cope with your little family AND your school life? Mr. and Mrs. Kevin Mangum were married this past summer and are now one of the twenty married student couples at Bryan. Get it straight from the mouth of fresh experience: It ' s wonderful, said Mrs. Kevin Mangum, a.k.a. Sherry. She and Kevin were married July 16, 1988, and when asked if there were problems or joys — they had plenty of each. One major thing you have to overcome is adjusting to a new schedule. In the dorm I could lock out anybody when I didn ' t want to see anyone — but you can ' t do that with your wife, Kevin said with a smile. Sherry agreed that adjustment is important. You have to learn to work with each other ' s schedules. She added, I also had to work out expectations I had of myself — I wanted to be the perfect little wife. When asked about school with married life, both said ironically that they don ' t study as much, yet they make better grades. Kevin said, I ' ve heard that from other married students also. Your mind is more settled; whereas before you were caught up in all the things around you. But we miss out on a lot and have to ask ' Hey — what ' s going on on campus? ' We miss out on being with friends, and we sometimes feel isolated, said Sherry. She added, There ' s also the new things of your new life added — like washing and cooking on top of all your studying. When asked about the joys of married student life, Kevin could hardly stop talking. You have a lifetime companion to always be around. The food is better! You have more freedom — live in your own place, don ' t have a curfew — you ' re your own person. He added, It ' s nice being in BV, where you ' re around other couples going through the same things. It ' s nice to become more a part of Dayton. When you live off the hill you get to know the people, and we ' ve become more involved in church. Sherry ' s response about the joys of married life was, I could get personal, but . . . . and she laughed. It ' s just so neat how men and women are different, and in the marriage relationship it ' s beautiful, and seeing us grow as one is great. It ' s funny too, because there are things I laugh at Kevin for doing, and then I catch myself doing them. She added, It ' s amazing the love you can have for someone — and it just keeps growing. You would think it would stop sometime! It ' s great being together all the time. When asked how they handle the financial strain, Kevin says he works when he can and will be working more in the spring semester. A lot of couples at BV are struggling. I ' ve found the more I give back to the Lord, the more I don ' t have to worry about it. Our needs will be taken care of. Kevin ' s advice to anyone who plans on being a married student or who plans on getting married at all someday was this, Be sure you can say you ' re best friends, and You still have to let the other person be an individual. Sherry said, Number one is your communication has to be open. That ' s the key. You have to be sure your life is in line with the Lord, because if it ' s not, that ' s when the problems are going to come in.

Join the fun of the 1988 Bryan College Homecoming festivities, where the halls were decorated in the spirit of an old- fashioned carnival. Dress-up days began with a trip back to the carefree days of the Fifties, when bobby socks and rolled-up blue jeans were the rage. Professors commented about how nice the students looked until someone reminded them that it was Fif- ties Day. Students with polka dot ties, brightly colored wigs, and painted faces brought in Clown Day with true carnival style. Twin Day witnessed the birth of the largest group of twins in Bryan College history as juniors donned their class sweatshirts to become a moving mass of look alikes. Some of Bryan ' s stranger creatures emerged from the woodwork to stalk the halls on Freak Day. The majority of them were found to be quite harmless. The only injuries reported that day were strained neck muscles from too many double takes and sore stomach muscles from laughing too hard. By the time alumni began rolling in on Friday, Bryan College had returned to normal, and students were sporting the traditional Red and Gold as though noth- ing at the Old Alma Mater had ever changed. Alumni gathered under the Big Top in the Grassy Bowl to catch up on the latest news and relive old memories. Mean- while, current students were preparing to make some memories of their own.

Romans 12:1 Shtfd iScpYice A chance to share abilities and love, organizations and special groups gave students an opportunity to serve. Students were able to ap- ply their heads and hearts in singing groups, PCI, and other student - run organi- zations to help those around them. Giving up ourselves to truly live reached into long practice hours and entire days that were spent playing with a pal or working on homecoming. Allowing our time to be used by someone else was not al- ways easy, but often it opened a door to serve that was closed when we were occu- pied. Like clay on a potter ' s wheel we were spun and pushed and made ready for use. So whether the hours were spent in a sen- ate meeting or singing THE MESSIAH, stu- dent organizations offered more than just experience with people. These groups fur- nished students with an open door — with a chance to be shaped for service. y 3 A 20 Organizations Practical Christian Involvement leaders light the way to a better road.

The Hilltop Players Present The Diary of Anne Frank The production of THE DIARY OF ANNE FRANK caught the attention and interest of many. It was after Mrs. Morgan and some of the Hilltop Players viewed the Cumberland County Playhouse production that they decided they wanted it to be the fall play. Mrs. Morgan had already had some previous experience with the play, which was a benefit for all. The story of Anne Frank is a human story which has continued to touch people over the years. It has been able to do this for a good reason — it is true. Doing something true real- ly made it stand out to me because then you can get to know the people involved and learn what the times were really like, which we did, said Mrs. Morgan. For two full nights, Friday and Saturday, No- vember 18 and 19, those from Bryan and the community caught a glimpse of life during the very hard times of World War II — through the eyes of the young Jewish girl, Anne Frank.

The Chorale, under the direction of David Luther, performed a wide variety of music for both Bryan and community churches. The main event of the spring semester was by far the spring break tour, which consisted of performances in various states. The Chamber singers, a sixteen-voice group chosen from the Chorale, also performed throughout the year at different locations. The Symphonic Wind Ensemble conducted a mini-tour, taking their music to churches and schools in the community. The Wind Ensemble strove to minister to their hearers as well as introduce them to instrumental music in the church. Two ministry teams, consisting of five mem- bers each, also travelled, presenting their mu- sic ministry to churches and schools all around. The teams, one directed by David Luther and the other by Chris Watkins, were designed to be a spiritual outreach and to attract people to Bryan. Surely a joyful noise was heard in 1988-89 from Bryan ' s music groups. Choral: Row 1: Dr. S.

The quill and ink did thejob, but ball-point pens are much more convenient. The typewriter was an amazing invention, but now we have computers. Good communication skills are increasingly important in this Information Age. Those who share the facts also shape them in the process. The world needs servants who will present the truth accurately and clearly. Following in the footsteps of the college ' s founder, William Jennings Bryan, students produced three regular pub- lications — ARTS LETTERS, the COMMONER, and the TRIANGLE. ARTS LETTERS was the only student-edited, intercollegiate, scholarly and literary magazine in the country. The samll but dedicated staff produced a quality journal that included an interview with Peter Taylor. A team of seventeen students produced the college yearbook, the COMMON- ER. The staff worked hard to capture the special memories and momentous occasions of a year of college life and record them in pictures and print for the future. The TRIANGLE, a weekly newspaper, filled the students ' minds and mailboxes with news from the world around them. Student reporters checked their beats, wrote and edited their articles, and gained valuable experience in the important area of communication. ?■ ■ - , V Smile and say, I love deadlines!

Publications 27 PRACTICAL CHRISTIAN INVOL VEMENT Go ye therefore and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, Son, and Holy Ghost, teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you, and, lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world. This was the commandment that P.C.I, helped fulfill. Meeting the many needs of Rhea County through various areas was what P.C.I, was all about. The anxious first meeting with that spe- cial little pal, seeing a deeper under- standing in the eyes of BEM students, fill- ing the spiritual hunger of teenagers through Life, and showing extra attention to some of the older folks in the nursing homes were just a few areas in which P.C.I, made an impact.

We were blessed with a stu- dent body which seemed keenly aware of our God- given responsibility to help the children of Rhea County. BEM owed its ef- fectiveness and very ex- istence to the tireless dedication of so many people with one thing in common — a heart for God and love for His chil- dren.

Bryan College stu- dents who had a rela- tionship with Jesus Chris met Rhea County teen- agers. New relationships developed. Bryan stu- dents became friends with local teens. Some needed to receive Christ, and others need- ed to grow closer to Him. Loving Christ and letting Him teach us to love each other were what Life was all about. TUTORING Train up a child in the way he should go, and when he is old, he will not depart from It. Our goal in tutoring was not only to help kids with their un- derstanding of English, math, history, and sci- ence, but to help them with life ' s problems. Practical Christian Involvement 33 NURSING HOME MINISTRY Reaching out to the older people of Rhea County was what the Nursing Home ministry was about. Being there to encourage, listen, pray, spend time with, and love the folks that need a little extra TLC was the main purpose. ISO The purposes of the In- ternational Student Or- ganization were to pro- vide a support group for Its members, to encour- age M.K. ' s and interna- tional students to inter- act with nationals (i.e., Americans) and vice versa, and to help the student body become more aware of other peoples and cultures.

It put an em- phasis on the power of prayer and necessity of missions. The goal was to make the student more aware of spreading the good news of Jesus to lands beyond our own. i 1 . Practical Christian Involvement 35 Unswerving Conviction student Senate was entrusted with the awe- some responsibility of representing both the student body and the administration to each other. This sacred trust was taken with the ut- most seriousness by these men and women, each of them driven by the common desire to represent all of the Bryan community and accu- rately reflect its concerns. Their frequent meet- ings and conferences, countless hours of prep- aration and planning, and the diligence with which they approached all of their endeavors were merely indicative of their unswerving con- viction that no voice should go unheard. The 1988-89 school year marked Senate President Gretchen Mann ' s second term at the helm as she again led her fellow senators in facing the ever-present challenges of conscientiously representing all of the people, all of the time, in a spirit of true Christian unity and love. t i Senate officers; Amy Barth, Business Manager; Gretchen Ma nn, President; Ingrid Krein.

Student Union Fun is shaped like a circle because it never ends. Fun is shaped like a triangle because it has three parts — people, places, and things to do. Fun is shaped like a diamond because it Is so valuable. At Bryan College fun took many forms — concerts by well-known Christian art- ists, movies in the Lion ' s Den, Whitewater raft- ing, intramural field day competitions, and more. Fun does not materialize out of thin air. Ironi- cally It takes work to make fun happen, but fortunately it is a fun kind of work. The members of Student Union poured their time, energy, and creativity into producing quality fun. This group of servants worked hard to make the fun take shape. They did everything from planning ac- tivities to putting up posters that kept the stu- dent body in the know. They distributed con- cert tickets, rented movies, and played tapes in the Lion ' s Den. All these details came to- gether to create a fun-filled year.  ■■■■■ ■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■I ■ ■ s. u.

Romans 12:2 Tlie Hind A major component of our lives, aca- demics applied enough pressure to our brains to get us thinking, and from there on, we have not been the same. Our primary purpose for being at college, academics, was shaped and ap- plied to our lives by the wise hands of our professors. They assigned reading and pa- pers and labs to help us understand, and they gave their time to answer questions out of class or counsel with us or even cry with us. Their influence on our lives is not yet fully known. Already, different classes hold memories of impossible tests or challeng- ing lectures. One thing is for sure, though, through their lives and instruction certain parts of our minds were shaped just a little smoother. ui II iiwiM— Miiiinmr ' inwTl 40 Faculty Dr. Duane Cuthbertson exhibits his exqui- site hand-mouth coordination telling the l ind of story that mal es his classes fa- vorites.

Anna Smith and Ryan Wisniewski look on with much concern as Dr. Hartsell averages their grades. Dr. Cornelius is not only a great English pro- fessor but also a great connoisseur of lemon- ade. It ' s all a part of college life. The fun, the games, the classes, the homework, the all- nighters and the professors — all striving to shape our lives and minds. The professors were there to share our laughter and tears, give advice when asked for and even when not. The care and concern that the professors constantly showed the students was really unique. They became moms and dads away from home. The love and selflessness that filled all of the professors ' offices was more than enough to ease students through some of the roughest times. Professors displayed much flexibility in the way they worked with students who had to go home because of mono or who were members of the athletic teams and even oth- ers who just had heavy responsibilities. Giv- ing students time to make up the assign- ments was greatly appreciated. These godly men and women excelled in being enthusiastic and being an example to their students.

In the middle of the game, they said, Good shot, to an op- ponent after he scored. After the game they hurried over to shake hands and be friends. Their bodies solid and their hearts strong, they played the games that made the season. The 1988-89 sports season wound up with a strong finish for every team. Players traveled from the ritzy coast of Florida to the fields of eastern Texas, capturing titles and breaking records. Each team, whether they won or lost, also proved to be a strong witness for Christ. Their friendly hugs to disturbed op- ponents and time taken to share the Gospel with a stranger met on a road trip displayed the shape of their hearts.

Mary Lokers and Kary Burby were named among the Top Ten Blockers in the NCCAA. In addition Lokers was named among the Top Ten Hitters and Carolyn Arnemann was listed among the Top Ten Set- ters.

Amidst the injuries, success poured on the runners. The teams partici- pated in seven races. Four of these were cross country races, and three were road races. Running with undying determina- tion during the season really paid off! Seven runners qualified for the NCCAA Nationals this year: Greg Iseley, Darin Gregg, Mark Olson, Cyndi Lopez, Angle Reynolds, Bouchra Sefiane and Kathy Ed- wards. The event, located in Cedar- ville, Ohio, on November 12, was marked by Cyndi Lopez ' s receiving the 1988 NCCAA Academic All- American Award and the astonished looks given to Bouchra Sefiane for running the race with a cast on her arm. Although the season was very successful, its ending was a sad one. This was Miika and Lynn Leh- tinen ' s last year at Bryan as cross country coaches and faculty. Lynn ' s biggest concern is the future of cross country. There is a lot of run- ning talent here at Bryan, she said, and 1 am really worried that it might be cut. We ' ve got a good thing go- ing here. Let ' s keep it!

The reward: the lives of the players. On December 1, 1988, while the team was driving to a game at Blue- field State College in West Virginia, the van collided with a parl ed semi- trucl . Coach Ricl Burby was driving and lost control of the vehicle when he hit a hidden patch of ice on the road. Even though the brand new Ford Aerostar van was completely crushed, the passengers were mi- raculously saved from death and suffered only minor injuries. This display of God ' s power and grace served to strengthen both the unity of the team and the character of the players. This season the team personified the phrase shaping servants. The How is that for fancy footwork? players showed their commitment at practices sch eduled at 5:30 a.m. Through such dedication, the play- ers learned to work as a team and displayed incredible unity. While there were many outstanding play- ers, there was no one player who stole all the glory. Team captains for 1988-89 were seniors Michael Davis and Ronnie Cox. These two men were also leading scorers. Dominant in rebounding were Dennis The Beast Spier and David Zube Zuberer. The men who con- sistently handed out the assists were John Williams and Michael Da- vis. Although many wins came to the team, the greatest victory to be re- membered happened in Bluefield on a cold December night. The 1988-89 men ' s basketball team.

Despite the rebuilding process, we ' re striving to be much more com- petitive, said coach Carolyn Mair. She added, All these girls came from different coaches, and it takes time to adjust to a new coach ' s per- sonality as well. The major strength of the team in the opinion of Coach Mair was their size. Leading players for the ladies were: Karen Easter — top scorer, Mary Lokers — a top rebounder, as well as Tina Meeks who was well- rounded in both of these areas. Leading in assists were Kary Burby and Jerri Beck. Coach Mair said the characteris- tic that made this year ' s Lady Lions unique was the team ' s personality. The personalities of the girls were very diverse — from their tastes to their temperaments. There was a lot of individualism, she said. Through the rigors of practice, the competition of the games, and the working together on and off the court, the 1988-89 Lady Lions bas- ketball team was shaped to be ser- vants.

Lori! Is our cry! L-O-R-ll! Lori Farney, the squad ' s new advisor, entered with surprise as the team celebrated her birthday. Although there were rough edges among the team- mates, unity became the key factor. Everybody ' s been really willing to work together, Christine Mas- sey, the team captain, said. Being on the squad has been a ministry to me. One of the team ' s goals was to be a ministry through their actions and their attitudes. Chrissy Campbell stressed the team ' s ability to work togeth- er. Whenever we had a problem, we would stop and talk about it and pray, she said. Although practices often carried on until after dark, the girls willingly gave up their time to perfect their routines. Time was also spent in bake sales and cup sales to raise money for uniforms. Ultimately the team strove to bring glory to God. They saw cheering as an opportunity to serve, and they reached out with their spirit to fill the crowd with excitement. fmm - f- • mh ifiMlg M « ; Doug Mann cruises along on his motorcycle in a cheerleading skit at the pep rally.

Ephesians 2:19 Dlffehcnfr 9es Brothers and sisters? All in one fam- ily? Members of God ' s house- hold? Whether because of the small enrollment or the character of the people, friendships at Bryan turned the campus into home. Students came from as far away as Bra- zil, Switzerland, and even China to get their degrees, but that is not the only thing their stay at Bryan yielded. Getting to know one another meant bearing a lot of burdens and sharing the hurts and joys of growing up. And it left behind a spirit of unity that, al- though it was not always felt, existed among us. The differences that arose challenged our brotherhood, demanding stronger commitments and more of a willingness to serve. Being excited for someone who got an A when you got a C was not easy, but it helped to bridge the gap of differences and draw us closer together. Ultimately, though it was only through the ties that Jesus made that we were able to be a family, despite the different shapes and sizes of our hearts.

Finding New Strength 1 : 9 ji The half-way mark. The runner reaches deep within himself to see if he has what it will take to finish the course. He searches for new strength, for a hidden source of energy. Then he gets his SECOND WIND, it sweeps over him like a re- freshing wave, washing away all sense of pain and fatigue and filling his heart with the confident knowledge that he will finish the race. The class of 1990 learned to rely on God ' s strength in order to give rather than give up. They gave their wholehearted enthusiasm to their ministries, their work, their fun, and v t(- t- most of all to each other. Whether they were enjoy- ing the view from the Bluffs, serving up supper, or shar- ing their ideas in one of those all-too-numerous meetings, the junior class gave their all. They ran their race with confidence. There ' s an invisible hand at my back that says, Keep going. Don ' t give up! — LaDonna Robinson Dana Allen Donna Anderson James Arnette David Banks Ann Barinowski Erin Barnett Amy Barth Stephanie Bengtson Jeanine Bongiorno Kevin Boot Sharon Bradfield Matthew Brice Bobbie Brooks ' Christopher Burcham Bobby Burton Tim Combs Juniors Crista Cornelius Jimmy Davis Jodi DeBoer Angie Elmore Kim Esuchanko Tim Evans Mike Ewles Amy Ezell Jeff Ferrell Titus Freuler Ann Gholdston Wesley Gibson Jonathan Grosh J ' Michelle Grosh Rona Halcomb Mary Beth Hall Philip Hay Bev Hewitt Beth Hornish Teresa Horton Michele Hufford Gerry Hurley Jamie Jewell David Johnston Juniors 79 To get some points for the juniors, Matttiew Brice, Becl y McManus, Crista Cornelius, Donna Anderson, Lois Silvey, Kelley Luther, and Mary Beth Hall lug Ed Fickley to the judges for credit.

David Banl s. My psychology classes. Praveen Suganadam: My sis- ter Sylvia. Tim Little: Work- ing in PCI — it ' s stretched me more than anything else. Many of these junior ser- vants, such as Bobbie Brooks and Rona Halcomb, still remember and point to the Missions Conference held their freshman year as a great shaping influence. Ann Barin- owski cites the caring, con- cerned teachers as having affected her life. Others are still more specific — Melissa Meadows: Dr. Bagstad — her experienced are so easy to remember and are applicable. Pookle Ruark: Dr. Brown — he ' s verv pen. What is the difference be- ■i :sn upper and lower class- men? Wesley Gibson says that upperclassmen aren ' t that much more mature, They just take things more serious- ly.

Juniors 83 Crossing the Finish Line Rounding a corner, the runner views the FINISH LINE. The runner ' s eyes are focused on the tape. Confidence gives wings to his feet. He can almost taste the victory. Yet a piece of his heart wants to freeze this mo- ment with the cheer of the crowd and the thrill of achievement, so that he can treasure and relive it a thousand times. Suddenly the runner is at the finish line. For a split second the tape is taut across his chest; then it breaks, and his arms fly up in victory. The class of 1 989 ran their race well. They learned what it was like to serve a world through prayer, a community through PCI, a campus through student leadership, and a classmate through encouraging words and special times together. Byron Talbot and Lynn Goodwin enjoy the scenery at the park. Th? a.nnual all-college picnic is one of the act ' v:;i93 that kicks off the new school year. rielationships grew into stronger friendships for many seniors. Mark Jordan, Steve Snyder (R.D. of Woodlee- Ewing) and John Kelley show their closeness as they head for home. Yet this race was not their last one. It was a time of training, of shaping up, of preparing to carry the torch of the Gospel into the busi- ness office, the classroom, the church, the mission field, and wherever darkness dwells. What are your plans for after graduation? Noel Allen: I ' m heading for Dallas Theologi- cal Seminary. Duane Jeffers: I ' m going on a cruise. Chad Gower: Youth Ministry with emphasis on counseling. Avonda Yeager: Be an assistant director of a daycare center. Blaine Hess: Work pit with a radio station. Michael Davis: Continue my basketball ca- reer. Okay, it ' s really simple.

I John 2:2 Bryan College is no t a community unto itself. It is part of a larger community — Dayton, Tennes- see. The history of the college has always been shaped by the community in which it was born. It began when William Jennings Bryan defended the Biblical account of creation in the Scopes Trial and hiked around the hills of Dayton looking for a place to find a Chris- tian liberal arts college. It continues today as businesses and citizens give financial and moral support to the college. Something about the little town nestled against the protective arm of the Cumber- land Mountains creates an atmosphere of security. It is a place where students are free to grow, change, and discover. Some- thing about wandering through the campus alone on a clear November evening and seeing the bare trees silhouetted aginst the amber sky calls us to listen to our God. And the distant dong of the courthouse bell re- minds us that He speaks in a still, small voice. He speaks to us and to our town and to our world. He wants to shape us into servants who will take His message to those who have not heard. m - :)ver1isements Celebrating Duane Jeffers ' birthday, a group of students enjoy good times at Grady ' s.

A Rhea County native, she graduated from Rhea Central High School in 1942 as Valedictorian. After leaving the area, working, and marrying, she returned with her family to Dayton in 1959, at which time she entered Bryan College as a stu- dent at the age of thirty-five. The next year she served as secretary, later be- came Dean of Women, and was a part- time student, graduating summa cum laude in 1965 with a B.S. in Business Ad- ministration. Her Assistant Dean, Karin Traylor, remembers her as a very excel- lent and caring Dean of Women. In 1967 she became the college Financial Aid Of- ficer, and the next year earned a M.Ed, in Educational Psychology from the Univer- sity of Chattanooga. The following year she became Dean of Counseling Services at Bryan. With the philosophy that Everyone ought to give something back to the com- munity, Mayme Bedford ran in 1972 for matme KEBl-E ' ' ' Of year an Rhea County School Board, was elected to a six-year term, and served as the board chairperson for a year. Along with her educational activities, Mrs. Bedford and her first husband (now with the Lord) had three children, two of whom graduat- ed from Bryan. In 1973 she became the first woman to receive the Bryan College Award for Alumnus of the Year. Believing that You are never poor if you have an education, Mayme Bedford went to graduate school at the University of Tennessee in Knoxville, where she earned the Ed.D. in Educational Psychol- ogy in 1976. Leaving the administrative area, Dr. Bedford went more into teaching and was appointed a full, tenured Profes- sor of Education and Chairperson of the Division of Education and Psychology. Over the years she has headed up a num- ber of projects, including the Small Col- lege Consortium Institutional Develop- ment Project, a plan for faculty involve- ment in public schools, the Governor ' s Task Force for Education in Rhea County, and the establishing of relationships be- tween Bryan and such organizations as ACS! and NCATE.

Challenged to turn the world upside down, challenged to commit ourselves to a ca use that goes beyond the North American middle-class life, challenged to be a goer or a sender. The 1989 mis- sions conference was a time of exalting Christ, being educated about world mis- sions, and making commitments that would affect the world. An eleven-person committee of stu- dents organized the conference under the 116 Missions Conference 1989 Bryan College Missions Confcienc Ravi Zacharias talks about Convictions that conquered the world. leadership of John Pierce. The theme of the conference was I am not ashamed, taken from Romans 1:16-17. Missionaries from all across the globe emphasized this theme in their workshops, the meet-the- missionary times, andjust in conversation around their display tables. The conference was a time of soberly being reminded of the power of the gos- pel for a needy world. Over 50 mission boards were represented and had tables of information in the Lion ' s Den. As silence filled Rudd, Ivlatthew Brice and other students bearing flags marked the end of the conference. Melodee Wolcott ' s mother opens a conference session with special music. Missions Conference 117 THE PRICE OF... For to you it has been granted for Christ ' s sake, not only to believe in Him, but also to suffer for His sake ... Do nothing from self- ishness or empty conceit, but with humility of mind let each of you regard one another as more important than himself; do not merely look out for your own personal interests, but also for the interests of others. Have this attitude in yourselves which was also in Christ Jesus, who, although He existed in the form of God, did not regard equality with God a thing to be grasped, but emptied Him- self, taking the form of a bondservant, and being made in the likeness of men. And being found in appearance as a man. He humbled Himself by becoming obedient to the point of death, even death on a cross. Therefore also God highly exalted Him, and bestowed on Him the name which is above every name, that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of those who are in heaven, and on earth, and under the earth, and that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.

Servanthood really means death to self. It requires that one relinquish every right to his own life. In reality servanthood is the ultimate expression of love. Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends. (John 15:13). However, there has been only one Man who ever had the power in Himself to lay down His own life. He was also the only Man who had the power to take it up again. That Man was Jesus Christ, the Son of God. It is His pleasure that every believer becomes a servant. That goal is only accomplished because of His power that is at work in them both to will and to do of His good pleasure (Philippians 2:13). Thus the task of shaping servants lies completely in God ' s hands though He uses many tools in the process. Bryan College, with its commitment to Christ Above All, is one tool God is using to shape servants of Christ for today ' s world. SERVANTS ARE FLEXIBLE— Bill Kellaris serves in the office and out.

Being a servant comes with a cost. Serving as a cheerleader, Tiffany Fullerton suffered an injury but stuck with the squad despite the discomfort. 12 ' .losing 1 $ m ME The Class of 1989. Lara Elizabeth Ragan, born March 28, takes it easy in the arms of junior Debbie Sloat. From the sweetness of a newborn baby to the specialness of close friendships, the shapes of hearts and heads of students at Bryan were filled with things more priceless than the finest gold. The little things often proved to be the most mportant — the smiles, the verses sent through the mail, or the listening ear of a busy friend. Not only did those things help through the tough times, but they also built character to make hearts more sensitive. The most important filling and teaching, though, came from the Spirit of God, who opened ears so they could really listen and brought joy to heavy, test-ridden hearts. God filled the blank- ness of our human form with the richness of His grace.

Calendar 123 The Bryan College Coliseum (cafe- teria) housed the annual athletic ban- quet, sponsored by the cheerleaders. The banquet served to tie up the year ' s sports with a final show of awards and special thanks. Galling for a big round of applause, the men ' s basketball team finished their season strongly, with a best-ever record of 2 1 - 1 1 . The unified teamwork was evident, but there were some very extraordinary players working hard also. Ronnie Cox and Michael Davis were named to the NCCAA ' s first and second Ail-American Teams, and Coach Rick Burby was named NAIA District 24 Coach of the Year. This was a victorious season, both on the court and in the van, and there is good indi- cation of God ' s blessings upon next year ' s men ' s basketball team. The womsn ' s Dasketball team had a ct r.ac sr-building year. Winning is easy, but to lose well takes character and integrity. Even though the final scoreboard showed a 6-25 season, the team is fast improving and laying a groundwork for next year.

Sports 125 New Things Take Shape The shaping process never stands still. Changes are always taking place as new people and new opportunities arise. Bryan ' s new broadcasting studio will play an important part in the proposed communication arts major. The studio is already being used to produce a weekly, half-hour radio program called BRYAN LIFE. The upbeat program featured con- temporary Christian music and a Bible message by Dr. Bill Brown. Joe Runyon was the producer and engineer, assisted by Damon Kelly, and Jimmy Davis was the announcer. The program was aired on five stations and reached audiences in Penn- sylvania, Florida, and across the South- east. A 40x100-foot swimming pool added new sparkle to the Bryan campus in April. As a result the summer conference pro- gram blossomed with twenty-three con- ferences, ranging in size from ten to over five hundred. The increased exposure of Bryan College was as refreshing as a dip in the pool itself. The most anticipated new thing at Bryan in the spring was the swimming pool, made possible by a major donation from Dr. Gerald Karr along with the assistance of Dr. Bob Spoede and Mr. Don Efird, who ceremoniously fill the pool. Joe Runyon works with the equipment in Bryan ' s new studio. Dr. Bill Brown — new Academic Dean. 126 New Things Reaping the Reward Long days, all-nighters, stressing out, cramming. Students experienced one of these at some time — occasionally all of them at once. Some students, however, are set apart from the rest in that they seem to go the extra mile — you know, the ones who mess up the curve. Those students who attained exellence in their academics and extra-curricular ac- tivities were honored on Friday, April 28, at chapel time. A total of forty-seven spe- cial awards were given, plus the aca- demic awards. Varied awards were pre- sented, ranging from Chorale Ivlember of the Year to Academic Division awards to scholarships to Intramural Class Trophy. Not all the people who gave every- thing they ' ve got in their endeavors at Bryan College received awards, but all were shaped through the work and exper- ience they received at Bryan. Dr. Cornelius presents junior Wesley Gibson with one of the numerous literary awards he won. Dr. Miller gives freshman Sheila Mayhood the High- est Achievement in First-Year Chemistry Award.

Hauna tribesmen, converted under the ministry of Marilyn Laszio, make a memorable chapel vis- it and exemplify the fruit of servanthood. Working hard to make good grades and keep old friendships, Finding out we haven ' t got what it takes t o be all that we want to be, Trusting God to fill the missing parts and keep us from falling away, Wanting to do better but finding it hard to stay. Knowing that In Jesus Christ all our strength and power is found, We take shape as servants and move on to higher ground. Therefore, brothers, since we have confidence to enter the Most Holy Place by the bio of Jesus, by a new and living way opened for us through the curtain, that is, his body, a since we have a great priest over the house of God, let us draw near to God with a since heart in full assurance of faith, having our hearts sprinkled to cleanse us from a gui conscience and having our bodies washed with pure water. Let us hold unswervingly the hope we profess, for he who promised is faithful. Hebrews 10:19-: 136 Closing
