Westervelt On February 12, 1965, Romeyn E. Westervelt was taken home to be with the Lord he loved and served so faithfully. Mr. Westervelt had served the Lord for the past several years at C.B.C. in the Printing Department, mimeographing tests, question sheets, and prayer letters. Tiiough his work brought him little public recognition or thanks, he was always faithful in carrying out his responsibilities heartily as unto the Lord. He will be remembered for his readiness to perform those menial tasks which are so necessary in the daily operation of campus affairs. Mr. Westervelt ' s life was a testimony to all who knew him. He was always kind, very patient, and never complained. His likeness to the image of Christ was no doubt due to the Lord ' s working in his life through the many tragedies which seem to have marked his life. His serious automobile accident in 1939 and the death of two of his children seemed to press him closer to the Lord and made his testimony all the brighter. Precious in the si ht of the Lord is the cleat!) of His saints (Psalm 116:15). MEMORIAM DEDICATION Dr. Paul G. Culley It is fitting that the 1965 Finial be dedicated to Dr. Paul G. Culley, Director of the Gradiurte School of Missions for nearly twenty years. Dr. Culley is well acquainted with the entire world missions scene, both as an educator and a form- er missionary. His vision and z.eal for missions are clearly seen as he works to- ward preparing others to labor in the world ' s harvest fields. From 192o, when he completed medical training at Johns Hopkins Univer- sity, until he arrived at C.B.C., Dr. Culley ' s work has taken him far and wide. Sh ' ordy after completing ti-aining, he sailed for the Philippine Islands where he served 12 years as a medical missionary. During this time he met Miss Margaret Scheirick, who was serving there as a missionary nurse. In 1934 they were married. His teaching experience has taken him from Manila E -angelistic Institute to BalHmore School of the Bible, ' heat()n College, and finally Jungle Training Camp in Mexico. Then in 1947 Dr. Culley arrived on campus to become Director of the newly fonned Graduate School of Missions. Through the years. Dr. Culley ' s leadership has been used to prepare many students for missionary service. His obvious concern for the lost has been an example to all whom he has taught. His frequent prayer, Send us forth . . ., shows his longing to see laborers commissioned for ' God ' s work. Dr. Culley, we thank God for your life and your dedication to our Lord Jesus. May the Lord use you to prepare many more for His service in the vears to come. Dusk draws near - - White harvests cry for laborers. The ADMINISTRATION prepares students to serve God. To Know Him and To Make Him Known Anv effective educational program must have some goal to which all its materials are integrated and toward which all its efforts are directed. God has given a perfect capstone for education in the person of the Lord Jesus. For m Htm arc hid all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge. The Lord has raised up the Bible colleges that this Stone which many educational builders have rejected might become the head of the corner. Thus the motto, To Know Him and To Make Him Known, expresses the educational philosophy of Columbia Bible College. This means that the Lord Jesus is the source and the teacher of all truth. The Lord Jesus, the Living Word, makes this truth known through the written Word. So at C.B.C. the basic consideration is the relation of the student to the Lord Jesus and the relation of the subject matter to the ' ord of God. This also means that the Lord Jesus is the source of the life produced by the training. So at C.B.C. it is desired that the Lord Jesus bring every area of the student ' s life under His control so that he may say from experience to me to live is Christ. Finally, this means that the Lord Jesus is the source of the power for effective Christian service. So at C.B.C. the theory and practice in Christian service is designed to teach the student that God always leadcth us in triumph in Christ and niaketh manifest through us the savor of His knowledge in every plaee ' ' James Hatch Dean of Faculty ■■■■■ — ' t SB FRONT ROW (Left to Right); Mr. Melvin E.

President ' s Letter Dear Seniors: The occasion of writing this letter with its personal expression of warm regard and congratulations is that of your academic position as children of your Alma Mater, but the real joy in writing to you is derived from the fact that you are children of lifiht (Eph. 5:8). As children of light I would ' exhort you, as I exhort myself, to walk as children of light. We spend our days on earth in the midst of the darkness of human sin and its effects. It is the time of the world ' s night. Its only hope is to see the Light of the world in us. We do not have much time. All too soon our night will come, the night that means earth ' s day has ended and its opportunities for eternity are gone. The night cometh iclicn no man can work (John 9:4). Ever yours, in Christ, a .o.___ MR. LETClll ' OHD. A Senior Class Jennie Sue Blevins, Sec; Paula Mohlmann, Trea; Dave Scorza, Vice President The Senior Year brings with it retrospection as well as anticipation of the future. Reflecting over our four years at C.B.C., we are grateful to the Lord for the way He has used past experiences, especially this last year, to prepare us to serve Him. Senior Sneak, the Retreat, and Junior- Senior banquet have been occasions of spiritual blessing as well as the social high-lights of the year. Through Senior chapel messages, doctrinal e.xaminations, and many of our courses the Lord has given us a personal knowledge of Himself and His Word. As we now look to the future, much of it uncertain, we have confidence that our Lord will continue to lead and teach us in the future as He has in the past. School days over V.

Who could forget those science projects— the time we covered the campus with miniature solar .systems? Or theology papers, always with a week of grace? And how many of us proved (or disproved) our artistic abilities on a Daniel Chart? Then there were activities such as the Junior-Senior Banquet, class socials and projects, and, of course, football games. Who wouldn ' t remember Thanksgiving Day when the Juniors won the Grits Bowl Classic? But best of all, we ' ll remember those many spiritual blessings we shared as a class, seeing God shower us with every spiritual blessing in Christ Jesus. The Juniors clean up the grits bowl.

Our wit and humor was demonstrated when we took first place on skit night for the second time. We have added life to the social periods with our incomparable klumps. In the classroom we again showed ourselves outstanding as we met the new intellectual challenges which faced us. W ' e had our first classroom encoimter with Mr. Hatch . . , and that inevitable Prophets Chart! A few of us even plunged our way through first year Greek.And yet through all our aried acti ities, we have come to realize it is onl - thc Lord Who daih ' sustains us.

CARLISLE, Class Advisor Freshman Class DENO ELLIOTT, Big Brotlier-RAMEY SOLOMON, Big Sister Class Prayer Meeting Newness and Freshmen sometimes seem to be almost synonymous. Newness, though, soon wore away under adjustments as we reco ered from our first history tests, regained our poise after music class solos, and daily regathered our bell-shattered nerves at 6:01 a.m. Pleasant adjustments also came as we met our C. B.C. family at the all-schooI social and later at our Freshman-Sophomore social. Another wonderful ad- justment was to the new sensitivity to spiritual values we found here at C.B.C. ' hat a blessed experience chapel was as daily we listened to men of God open the Word to us! Then in our classes, spiritual truths were presented in ways that made it easy to apply them to our daily lives. ' e do thank the Lord for our first year at C.B.C. and for all the lessons He has taught us here. J.M Don ' t vou reallv belie ' t ' I ' m studvin.u? Robert D. Abbot Gordon Adams Bets - J.

For instance, we are made up of nurses, doctors, teachers, musicians, missionaries on furlough, and ministers. Though our backgrounds are many, we liave a unity of purpose: to equip ourselves through Bible and missions studies for effective ministry in His service. Our class project, giving to the Bethel Camp for Negro young people, gives us a present opportunity to serve the Lord in a practical way. Also our weekly Christian Service opportunities have provided for us ways for becoming involved now in the work of God. How precious have been the lessons and truths that our Lord has taught us in these few short years in the Graduate School of Missions. Hans K. Abma Joyce S. Ackert Stuart K. Anthony Janet E.

Student Association Though often unappreciated because it is unseen in its behind-the-scene activities, the Student Association is vital to a smooth functioning campus Ufe. Organizations represented in the Association range from dorm councils to the Foreign Missions Fellowship and Finiul. The Student Council, comprised of the Association officers and representatives from each class and student organization, acts as the Association ' s administrative body. The Student Association has a three-fold purpose: the promotion of the social, cultural, and spiritual life of the student body, the direction of various student activities, and the co-operation of the student body with the Faculty and Board in all matters concerning the college ' s welfare and its service to the Lord.

On campus, participation in athletic activities provides an opportunity for each student to demonstrate in a down-to-earth way his Christian experience, while keeping himself in shape. Thus, some sort of physical exercise is required of all students. Underclassmen take part in physical education classes and daily exercises, while upperclassmen arid graduates engage in .sports of their own choosing. Intramural sports mclude soccer and touch football in the fall, basketball in the winter, and volley ball and Softball in the spring.

Our campus provides ample opportunity for development in this area by daily contact with fellow students. Dormitory life is an excellent opportunit to learn to live with others, and in doing so, to curb our own desires in consideration of those around us. Everything— from group socials and Open House all the way down to ping pong, and even taffy pulls— proves to be instances in which we can grow socially in our preparation as Ambassadors. Campus Life End of the line Rush hour At the crossroads of hfe College service duty Paying at a basketball game Honey, I forgot my lunch. Married Life As married students, we face some problems which are unknown to dormi- tory students. Probably the greatest of these is that of meeting all the demands of classes. Christian service, and work, without neglecting the responsibilities to- ward our families. Transportation often presents another problem, as do finances, arranging tight schedules, and getting to special meetings. Each of these prob- lems, however, has brought a new opportunity to trust the Lord for His solution. The bond among us in sharing these common problems has been en- couraging. We praise the Lord for what He is teaching us through each trial we face. A rare occasion for the family Class of ' 79 Can ' 0u believe she only spent $10?

To meet this goal, two majors are offered: Bible and Mis- sions. The center and basis of the curriculum being the Word of God, the first two years of study involve a gen- eral survey of the Bible along with basic liberal arts subjects. Detailed book studies and theology are taken up the last two years. In brief, the purpose for the ex- istence of Columbia Bible College may be summed up in the school motto: To Know Him, through our stud- ies, and To Make Him Known, through our Christian service.

Its purpose is basically twofold. For the F.M.F. member it provides an outlet for expression of his own commitment to the Lord, as well as a means in leading him on into a fuller understanding of God ' s will for his life. For the non-F.M.F. member it should serve to constantly face him with the issue of service to the Lord in missions. Its activities include a weekly Saturday evening meeting, at which missionaries speak, panel discussions are held, and other related programs are presented. The last part of this meeting is given over to eight separate prayer groups cov- ering different geographical areas of the world. Further activities include a financial project, occasional team min- istry, and a weekly prayer time for the whole student body.

Alumni Conscious that the night com- eth when no man ean work, ' C.B.C. graduates, as Children of the Day, are busy buying up the opportunities. In a recent sur- vey made of a five-year span of graduates, it was found that sev- enty-eight percent of C.B.C. ' s akimni are in full-time service or preparing for it. Of this num- ber nearly one-half enter for- eign missionary work. In the homeland, the pastorate claims twent -five percent.
