Carthage Comes To Life As Studen ts Return This year at registration, few Carthaginians were prepared for the changes they faced in the dorms, the odmintstration, the cafeteria, and even the R.A.'s rooms. Homemade bunkbeds and shetves were prohibited unless theyf met cer- tain specifications. Vacant and single rooms were found in both Johnson and South Hails but due to an overabundance of female students in Denhart and Tarble twhich used to be NorthJ Hails, women were living in study lounges. There were atso nineteen freshmen living in the basement of Denhurt with new bunkbeds, dressers and closets. The men's washrooms were else con- verted for their own use complete with semipermonent showers. Three freshman girls lived off campus in two private homes in Kenosha with apparentiy no transportation to campus. However, they were still consid- ered resident students and had to pay for food service. With the addition at the Fine Arts Center, many faculty offices had been relocated in difterent areas. To see Mr. Roscoe Chambers, Director of Stu- dent Employment, one must go to the old financial aids office which had been moved to the old academic dean's oHice which had been moved to the old campus pastorts office which had been moved to the Religion and Fine Arts Center. To see the new academic dean meant to see the registrar; to see the new acting president before the new president arrived in January meant a visit with the registrar, the business manager, the viceepresident for devel- opment, and the assistant to the president-director of admissions. A lot of little things had changed too like the bicentennial fireplugs, ketchup and mustard containers in the cafeteria, and the R.A.is private phones. The music department must have set what has to be a record of some kind for hiring five new instructors. Despite all of these alterations, some things had not changed. The beach continued to disappear beneath the rocks between the dining huli and Lentz, the PA system still hummed, and the football players were still rating giris in the College Center.

Chapels Are Varied To 551 tisfy A11 Jr! Dr. Harold Lentz's final sermon, as President 0'? Carthage, deliv- ered in Siebert chapel on September 9 he quoted Matthew 13:16, Btessed are your eyes For they see, and your ears, for they hear, us the theme of his speech. He went on to state, What we really see and hear is mostly a matter of the stance we take toward life. What is it that keeps us from hearing when we do not hear? What are some of the things that, like wax in the ear makes one cleatc to the message of life in Jesus Christ, or Pike a membrane over the eyes keeps us From beholding the many revelations of God round about us? Some of our reasons can be compared to the tussiness of a duck looking tor toad and someone to quack at, the preoccupation with iittte things, like the cat who went to London and oniy caught a mouse, or a worm who burrows down into its own seIf-centered little world. It is possible to become so absorbed with our studies and soda! lite that all the trumpets of heaven might be blown in our ears and we would not hear them. And what I! worse, the pleading voice of Christ as he says to each one at us icorne unto me, ail ye that labor and are heavy laden and I will give you rest,' produces no more effect Upon us than the idle wind . . . They have shut themselves in service Theyr have made their little seIt-centered universe, and in it they live and move and have their being. They do not live in God's world with its colorful pageant of many races, its thrilling plot, and its tense battle against evil. Theyr have retired From the world , t , Theyr shut themselves out from the activity in service, and the zest of being part of the 'col'l'n'l'ILII'tihir of the sent.' We must learn to see God everywhere: in nature, in humanity, including every person who crosses our path - the lovely and the unlovely. The measure to which we see and hear is the degree to which we are truly alive. How much are you alive, aware, responsive? God is in this world. He Is all about us e on this campus, in classrooms, laborator- ies, dorm rooms He is constantly revealing the wonders of his crew otion and calls us to be his disctptes. We can shut him out of our sight and hearing or we can, by proper spiritual nourishment, grow in him, be grateful for his blessings, listen to his guidance and hear him say: 'Blessed are your eyes for they see, and your ears, For theyr heart' ABOVE: One :hupel eazh tememr i5 devoted nately la the Extended OHering which give; Carthage students on aoportumly to make oftmno: of themielres lhfough samples ottheur tongue teudlngs, a! dance! pgltoining to rgligiout litut RIGHT.- Chitd abusel wolance, and inuletion cue sanouiir messed in lhe drama Dude pleienled by lhe Independent Eye Item Chico go 22 Chupets
