To sit down and to systematically examine the question '4What is Concordia Senior Collegen is as difficult for me as for an existential philosopher to define existentialism, or for a Timex to explain why it ticks, or for a maple tree to say why it grows in spring. Of course, many would say that Concordia Senior College is a complex of Saarinen buildings situated in north- east Indiana, inhabited by students and faculty whose common goal is the training of pre-theological candidates. But such a definition is too mechanistic. Perhaps youire a scholar. You thrill to Goethe in the original. You can account for every dagesh in Joshua 24. You can spew out Ein- stein's theory like hot pea soup. Or maybe your interest lies in ath- letics. You were runner-up in fall tennis, or glowed on the basketball floor, or batted cleanup in baseball, or got a couple of holes-in-one over at Foster. Maybe you hanker after liturgics. You can match up certain colors with certain days in your sleep. The epistle side is to the audience's left, the Gospel is right. The candles are to be lit no later than 9:33-. Maybe you're just a good all-around Joe College man. Don't spend over six hours on a term paper--ever. Co to chapel if it's convenient and if the sidewalks are cleared. Be kind, in a kind sort of way. Skip a few classes and take off for the weekend, just to stay with the gang. The question must be put to every student: Who are you? If we, as students, wish to answer unanimously, We are the faceless men, then the college can be nothing but a sepulchre-whitewashed to look nice-a preacher-machine in disguise. But perhaps -Concordia Senior College is opportunity: spiritual, educational, physical, social, human. Our spiritual opportunity puts a framework-God's framework- around all of the others. The Biblical doctrines of redemption, sancti- fication, faith, and stewardship don't remove individual initiative. And the definition of this school is inexorably tied up with a call to vibrant action-individual action. Allen County Public Library 900 Webster Street PO Box 2270 Fort Wayne, IN 46801-2270
