From the old is coming a new thing: Now in Christ you're newly made, Paul wrote. Flesh for stone, promised Jeremiah. Stars and sand dimly in Abraham's eyes. Brooding Dove, the Voice, the outstretched Hand.

Just to live is constantly the experience of new creation for me. The stimulation of new ideas, the widening of horizons through sharing with other persons, and the awareness of the reality of Jesus as Lord become my source of daily renewal. — Richard Detweiler President Richard Detweiler Peggy shenk, Administrative Assistan 18 Administration “Worldy” Wise by Albert N. Keim T A hose were special weeks, those three weeks in August, 1980. The entire college faculty read papers to each other, worshipped together, ate together, even played together. Out of the maelstrom of ideas and argumentation came new understanding about what an EMC college education should be. We said: EMC students should be “worldly.” In the good sense, of course. Get into other societies and cultures. Broaden their outlook. We said: They have to know their own story. Recover their memory. Know where they came from. Water their roots. We said: A small Mennonite college should have much shared learning. Think, argue, speculate, create, and do so together. Shared life and study brings coherence. And depth. And freedom. Life, we decided, is paradoxical. It bristles with ambiguity. EMC students we said, should be both broad and narrow, embracing the whole world, but cherishing their peculiar ethnic and spiritual roots. Both tribal and universal. Talk about paradox! Talk about presumption! But paradox and ambiguity never exist in a vacuum. Nor as abstractions. They require a context. Gritty history. Mucky society. Brittle culture. Marshall McLuhan once spoke of the world, made intimate with communication technology, as a global village. There it was. The image and the metaphor for EMC. The paradox of the tribal and the cosmic. We would be a village. Close. Secure. Deep. Familiar. Rooted. Gentle. Loving. On a human scale. Our place, in time and space. We would be global. Broad. Dangerous. Pluralistic. Raucus. Bewildering. Exciting. Chaotic. Mindless. Tragic. Hopeful. EMC a global village? Certainly presumptuous. Probably impossible. And yet, why not? If not this college, then who? Or where? And so we began, as the Bible has it, by faith. And hard work. And hope. Education is like life. One begins with intentions. Patience, perseverence, a large dose of intelligence mixed with Godly benevolence are necessary ingredients. We created a set of courses and learning exercises to encompass Global Village learning. The humanities help with the broadening. They treat the mystery, the tragic and comic dimensions of life. They are the stuff of paradox and ambiguity. They are built on the incredible ability of human beings to imagine what has not been experienced. Hence their power. And charm. Bible and religion help with the narrowing. Narrowing not in the parochial sense, but in the sense of purposefulness in the midst of global aimlessness. Identity in the face of universal anonymity. Truth in the context of relativity. Love over against war. Justice confronting evil. Jesus, Lord of history and purveyor of grace. God the creator and sustainer of time and eternity. Each year, we decided, EMC students should participate in a building-block sequence of Biblical and theological courses designed to foster spiritual growth and theological reflection. As they study they learn to link their personal story of faith to the faith story of their people, the Anabaptist-Mennonite story. And ultimately the relation of that people-story to all the other stories of God’s people, past and present. The faculty also realized there are certain “learning for life” exercises which all students need so they designed a series of courses in English (writing), social science, aerobics, health, science, psychology. These learnings help the student succeed in college as well as in life. Finally, all students must study in another culture sometime during their stay at the college. They will visit villages and other cultures and histories. And will hopefully discover the extraordinary variety the planet affords its inhabitants. But the global village is more than courses of study. It is a way of life. For four years students and teachers study, play, worship and live together. This sojourn is not a retreat from life of the world. But it is special. To be a college student — 20 years old; adult, but not yet cumbered-in by mor- tgage, kids or career, with time to explore, and create and dream, with the entire range of the past, a slice of present and a chunk of the future at one’s disposal — is magical. And to make the most of the magic, to plumb the mystery; that is what global village education is about. When it’s all finished — this four year encounter in the Global Village — we hope all of us will have shared both the deep and the broad dimensions of a good education. We will be willing to shoulder the burdens of being citizens and servants of both the global village — our village — and the global city — our world. Administration 19 Records Department David A.

Be- ing convinced of our dependence on nature, I enjoy mixing my career and vocation in creating a new system of growing things every year. In fact, since my hobby is also my research, I make fifteen 10 ft. x 25 ft. copies of the same intricate but unique pat- tern of plants every year. In the words of Wendell Berry, such enterprises constitute a ‘complete action,’ not just a protest. I like that. And I’m always looking forward to the next Spring when 1 can try it again, but another way.” — Kenton Brubaker Daniel B. Suter, Robert D. Yoder, Kenton K. Brubaker, A.

Landis James Bomberger, Jay Landis, Omar Eby 30 Faculty Staff “Friends Come From Afar’’ Dodging my way through the streets of Beijing my eyes darted back and forth to avoid bicycles plowing through with double loads of precariously balanced eggplant baskets. Surrounded with a moving mass of blue Mao jackets, the green and red ac- cented PLA uniforms, the starched white blouses of the “young patriots,” I heard shouts of Wai guo ren (foreigner) and mothers scurried to lift their infant children for that first glance of an outsider. I joined the mad rush for the bus and climbed through just as the door wheeled shut behind me. We were all jammed in there together in one situation regardless of our nationalities. We were standing pressed chest to chest, schoolboys yelling to each other, mothers holding babies as the trolley reeled back and forth, live chickens yielding protest and all fighting for a seat at each new stop. A new way of travel, a new way of thought so different from the Chinese of my dreams. Climbing the winding hairpin turns of the mountains which hid the Great Wall I crested a peak and looked over at the lush tapestries of these mountains so different from my own Massanutten Peak. The jagged edges rose up sharp and silent from the ex- pansive plain below. Though much of the wall remains unrestored and crumbling against years of environmental warfare, it snaked into the neighboring hills, here disap- pearing from sight, there dividing the mountains. Jolting along in the train as it weaved slowly through the mountains I listened to the loudspeaker screeching highly animated narratives in Chinese intermittent with Mar- tial music and occasional breaks for news. I felt the presence of yet another set of eyes curiously perusing my features. With the in- tensity and forwardness that only the Chinese have mastered he administered to me a barrage of English schoolbook phrases. 1 smiled and offered what Chinese I knew to Above: Doris and Jim Bomberger. Below: Professor Wang. start a conversation. I began to realize the intense desire of the Chinese to grasp any English phrases and to hear the scared words spoken from the lips of a native speaker. I arrived at Sichuan Teachers College to find my mother (Doris Bomberger) as it were swimming in hundreds of English composi- tions. The exchange has found the Chinese eager to utilize all possible resources to ad- vance their oral English and wish to have everything marked repeatedly in red. My father (James Bomberger) was scampering from classroom to classroom lecturing on English Literature, Why Jack London isn’t given his rightful place in America. The American system of education and abstract art. Despite the heavy schedule they seem- ed to enjoy the new experiences and learn- ing to eat such delicacies as sheep brain, pigeon eggs and duck-tongue soup. “The body travels more easily than the mind and until we have limbered up our im- aginations we continue to think as though we had stayed home, we have not budged a step until we take up residency in someone else’s point of view.” The China Educational Exchange program was negotiated in the fall of 1980 with the Sichuan Bureau of Higher Education and stepped out with these words of John Erskine’s. The idea of an exchange was provided to develop mutuality in learn- ing and service and an equality in relation- ships as a peace offensive to a country so long hidden behind a mutually constructed wall. EMC’s involvement began with the ap- pointment of two of our faculty members, James and Doris Bomberger, to a two-year assignment at the Sichuan Teachers College in Chengdu, Sichuan Province from 1981-1983. To complete the exchange EMC has welcomed professor Wang Shiyuean from the Sichuan Foreigh Languages Institute in Chongqing, Sichuna Province. Professor Wang arrived on campus in September of 1983 and stayed until June of 1984. Three new classes were introduced in to cur- riculum which were taught by him. They were Early Chinese History, Chinese History and Culture and Introduction to Chinese Language. Says Wang, “Teaching American Students is a little different. I have to adapt some, but I see it as an enrichment of my teaching. This is of course a pleasure for me and a great opportunity to present my country to the students. I can introduce the reality and mind of the Chinese people to the student. I think the exchange is very beneficial.” From Confucius, in the opening passage of the Analects, “Is it not a pleasure to have friends come from afar?” Faculty Staff 31 — Cathy Bomberger Emery Yoder Sam Horst, Gerald Brunk Carmenza Kline, Marijke Kyler Foreign Language History 32 Faculty Staff Home Economics Miriam E. Krantz, receiving the Robert W. Pierce Award Doris A. Bomberger, Janet C. Harder Answering Hard Miriam E. Krantz, visiting scholar in residence during Fall semester, contibruted to our understanding of the Global Village. She has worked in Nepal with United Mis- sion to Nepal since 1963. As a nutritionist, she developed “super flour,” a mixture of ground roasted soya beans, corn and wheat important in combatting malnutrition in Nepal. Presently she works in an ad- ministrative position, managing Nepali and mission workers, and making proposals for Community development with government officials. In October, Krantz received the 1983 Robert W. Pierce Award for Christian Ser- vice from World Vision International. After her chapel address, Dr. Ted W. Engstrom, president of World Vision, presented the award to her which included a check for $10,000. Krantz asked our campus community “What do we say to a Hungry World?” Questions Before we speak, we must listen, observe, sense the heartbeat of individuals in their communities. This is hard for us from the West. What do we say to the hungry if we are wrapped up in the need for quick suc- cesses and hard data? Could we be saying that the programs are more important than the people?” Through an evening class, Community Development: Nepal as a Case Study, she taught Western students prac- tical ways to approach the problem. Krantz also gave encouragement through her testimony and example. “I and many others have experienced the hopelessness of seeing babies, children and adults die for lack of appropriate food. But in that time of helplessness, of feeling vulnerable in our position as guests in a foreign country, Jesus meets us with wisdom from above and gives us insight into complex situations and problems.” — Ann Landis Faculty Staff 33 Mariamma Thomas Vida Huber, Beryl Brubaker, Susan Yoder, Valda Garber-Weider, Mike Wenger, Rosemary Shimer, Danielle Schoch, Sharon Sacra. 34 Faculty Staff Margaret Alger Mike Wenger, Kathy Klenert Ann Hershberger, Mamie Mellinger, Margaret Alger, Ann Hardinger Faculty Staff 35 Sherman Eberly, Sandra Brownscombe, Marlene Shumaker, Peggy Kellers, Orv Gingerich Byron Shenk Physical Education “With renewed vigor, I realize again the value of a personal, intimate relationship with the person of Jesus Christ.

The Center grew out of faculty concern for providing for individual learner need not met or addressed within the traditional curriculum. EMC received financial support for the project through a Ti tie III Federal grant. The guiding philosophy of the center is to provide resources for students, faculty and staff in a way that will strengthen the total academic program. Therefore, student services offered by the Learning Center are coordinated, when possible, with the academic curriculum. The Learning Center has three inter- related concerns: 1. diagnosis and remediation of learning problems 2. strengthening learning skills 3. providing instructional feedback about learner needs Emphasis on diagnosis is to identify specific learning problems that are preven- ting progress in course work. The center, then, cooperates with faculty in assisting students with course related problems. Students are not given busy work or enrolled in a new curriculum. Rather, the staff helps students with tasks already assigned in order to make the best use of the student’s time. The Learning Center also focuses on strengthening learning skills that may not necessarily be course related. These include general strategies for improvement in such areas as reading efficiency, notetaking, time management and test wiseness. A self-paced independent learning program can be selected by any student at any time without reference to a specific course. A third concern of the Learning Center is to make learning skills a part of the academic program. Involving faculty and ad- visors in addressing student needs provides faculty with specific information about learner needs and allows involvement in the development of the necessary competencies. The Learning Center has a variety of means of assistance in such areas as study skills, paper writing, reading improvement, memory improvement, notetaking, time management, vocabulary building and mathematics. These areas can be covered by one-on-one tutorials or by using one or more of the following: cassette tapes, com- puter programs, slide presentations, film strips, handouts or books. Since opening its doors in the fall of 1981, the Learning Center has served over 600 students as well as faculty and staff. Located on the ground floor of the Library and staffed by one director and five work study students, the Center is open from 9-5 Mon.-Fri. Students may stop in for materials or make an appointment for assistance. All Services are free and participation in all pro- grams is voluntary. The Center does not guarantee good grades, but it does have some well-tested methods that if applied properly should result in academic improvement. — Diane Enedy Diane Enedy Faculty Staff 39 Jerry Lapp. Christine DiPasquale Margaret M.

Lehman Mathematical Sciences Wilmer Lehman Faculty Staff 41 PiEHDV Ready or not computers are with us for good. Computers aren’t particularly new things to some of us, but to many others this year was the first chance to use a computer. And that computer was the trusty Apple He. The beginner’s first question was often, “How do I turn this thing on?” Apple had conveniently hidden the on-off switch on the lower left corner of the back panel. But Intro to Computers, taught by Wilmer Lehman, had students doing some pretty extensive computing by the end of the year. Joe Mast’s Computer Science I class also gained familiarity with the computer, anyway, who had ever heard of Pascal before? Oh, and what about those silly labs? All that work and they were only worth 10 points. Well at least they learned how to get to Charlot- tesville at 80 mph without getting stopped. They also realized that just because one’s completed the computer requirements for a degree doesn’t mean that one won’t ever need to look at a computer again. Chances are high that no matter what one’s profes- sion, one will sometime have to face a computer. EMC is doing all they can to make that face a smiling one. The plans for expansion in the near future are enough to make any computer jock drool. First on the list is a let- ter quality printer to satisfy all those apple writer freaks and those English profs who have to read that silly dot matrix printout. After that the PDP11 computer gets a new CPU and some additional memory to boost its capacity. With that change more ter- minals can be added allowing more people access to the computer’s time-sharing capabilities. Computer classes will have ter- minals in the classroom with large CRT Joe Mast screens so that the whole class can see what’s happening. In the plans for the new administrations building is an additional computer center. This center will either be equipped with IBM or Apple computers. The plan is to network them to either a mass storage disk or the PDP11 itself. These networking possibilities will be expanded to include computers in in- dividual students’ dorm rooms. The computer future at EMC is promis- ing. Even now there is something in the com- puter center for everyone, be it writing term papers with the wordprocessors, using business software to organize files, or using the many different languages available to write one’s own programs. If one has never used a computer before, EMC is making that opportunity more available every day. — Mike Yoder Chip Miller 42 Faculty Staff The Old is Gone, The New Is Coming “A l mnother Improvement for Mission Update.” White signs with navy blue letters began appearing on the EMC campus in the early 1980’s. In the student center lobby, by sidewalks and landscaping projects, wherever improvements are made on campus the motto “Update for Mission,” with its ring of hope, announces positive steps in preparing for EMC’s future. What is “Update for Mission?” “It is a comprehensive plan to catch up on our deferred needs,” Vice President Lee Yoder explains. There are many facets to Update for Mission, the most obvious being the renovation of the Administration Building, but other areas vital to students are also involved, including new instructional equipment, faculty and student development programs, and centers for evengelism and missions, study skills, and life planning. An Academic Master Plan for the 1980’s was the beginning of a study to see where EMC needed improvement and renewal. The architects, LeRoy Troyer and Associates from Indiana, various faculty, staff, administrators, and students were involved in the overall planning. Through a process of dreaming, realistic thinking, goal- setting, and stepping out in faith, an outline was drawn up and Update for Mission began. Smaller improvements have grown into larger ones, beginning with new signs at campus entrances, making EMC’s presence better known to the outside world to the Psychology Department’s move from the outskirts of campus to the dusty dark recess under the planetarium which was transformed into a carpeted room, complete with couches and computers. When students arrived in the Fall they were greeted by the most outspoken testimony of Mission Update’s progress. The Ad Building, which had housed 75% of the college’s instructional program, had been vacazed during the summer, and its empty stare declared its need for a face-lift. While the Ad Building awaited the beginning of the renovation, its activity moved to any and all available spaces on campus. Administrators and professors were squeezed into the first floor of Northlawn. The Admissions Office relocated in Northlawn Lounge; the Records Office claimed the sunny corner of the South Dining Room. Education offices were tucked into the library’s bottom floor, and the Nursing Department was invited to spend the year in the guest house. Student Services replaced the ping pong tables and TV that formerly filled the Student Center Lounge. In late summer, the Ad Building again became a place of activity as internal elements like paneling, ceiling tiles, and floor boards were stripped away. In October, a bulldozer flattened the knoll in front of the building, but replaced it with a hill of debris as the roof was dismantled, walls and steps demolished. The echo of crashing sledge hammers prepared the way across campus for November 12 when volunteers gave the Ad Building a new covering. All headway was destroyed January 17 by the fire, but new plans were made for reconstruction, and the Campus Center will eventually become again the focal point of campus interaction. Other improvements were tackled this summer in preparation for the school year. A new barn-like structure, someday intended for use by the Physical Paint, became thehome of the nglish Room and another classroom. Lectures on Herman Melville were punctuated by hammer blows as the finishing touches were added to the Park Woods building. Across campus, the fisherman’s wharf atmosphere of the Bard’s Nest was converted into clean, airtight classrooms and renamed the Old Arts Building. In response to another need, new sidewalks and ramps were constructed to make buildings more easily accessible to handicapped students. “It is the people that make EMC,” says Yoder. Update for Mission is the physical plan to meet the needs of the people. It is the dream that will transform the EMC campus into a new creation. — Pearl Hoover Administration 43 •• Jerry Miller Admissions Department Twila F. Swartz, Ross D.

Most of the volunteers, or Associates, are serving 12-month terms with the exception of three serving six-month terms and one serving a nine-month term. Dorothy Logan, Administrative Assistant, said, “The purpose of the program is to assist in understaffed areas in campus department.” The Associates are scattered throughout the departments and work at varied jobs in- cluding areas such as the physical plant, stu- dent life, renovation of the administration building, baking for the snack shop and Shamrock, hostessing the guesthouse, maintenance, custodial and secretarial work, and serving as student pastor. Norman Derstine, Director of Associates in Servanthood, said, “We’ve been happy with the program and it has also expanded.” From two Associates during the program’s first year to four during the next, the number this year has increased to sixteen. Ed Roth, an Associate in custodial work, and his wife Orpha said, “We have enjoyed the EMC Associate in Servanthood program the past two years. We feel blessed for get- ting better acquainted with faculty, staff, and the college’s program and have learned to love and appreciate EMC’s many Chris- tian young people. “Associates in Servanthood is a wonderful opportunity for retired people who have suf- ficient health to be part of such a program. We thank God for leading us here,” the Roths said. — Noel King Frances Brubaker Willie and Elizabeth Claussen 52 Faculty Staff Aaron Reitnauer Mitch Avnaim Front row: Lisa Seymour, Linda Nafeiger Meiser, Jeff Roth, Janet Roth.

First on my mind was what to do with my Camping Recreation Youth Ministries, Music, Computer major. Was there a specific job for me? My pastor couldn’t help me, but counseled me to visit Peggy Landis in the Career Planning and Placement Office. I found the counsel that I needed but not Peggy Landis. Rachel Hessmaust informed me that she was the new director. After returning from three years in MCC, she dropped by the office to find some career counsel herself, and a few days later found herself being asked to apply for the job of director. She is busy but says the job is rewarding. Her wise counsel to me was to get more involved; to participate in some ex- tracurricular activities in order to get some experience and learn just where my in- terests lay. Excited by this new idea, I hurried up to Wes Rediger in Student Life for some fur- ther information but alas, Wes had disap- peared and in his place sat Peggy Landis. It seems that Wes had abandoned his post to become Acting Director for the Integrated Student Services Project. His position came into being when EMC was given a govern- ment grant to consolidate and improve stu- dent services. Instrumental in making that happen is his work to develop a manage- ment information system. When that is ac- complished Student Life will have access to the data base of EMC’s main computer, and other offices will have access to information held by student life. That accounted for Peggy’s presence as director in this game of musical chairs. She was on the phone as I arrived. “Your hous- ing incentives looked good. That should help get interest in living on-campus. It would also be attractive to potential RA’s, especially if we could increase the pay and possibly offer credit.” Peggy concluded her call. I apologiz- ed for eavesdropping, but thanked her for answering all my questions without a word spoken to me. The RA position was for me. I immediately went to the housing direc- tors, and a new young face greeted me with a “How can I help you, honey?” Her name was Carrie Martin, and along with being Housing Director, I learned she was also Roselawn’s new RD. It was easy to see that she fit into the position well. She assured me Wes Rediger of attractive housing arrangements, and said the RD in Elmwood was still searching for a dedicated RA. Dreaming of personal fulfill- ment through the RA position, I hurried to talk with . .. who was the Elmwood RD anyway? Mark Souder turned out to be the person I needed to contact. New on the job, he was eager to talk about it. “I enjoy the flexible work schedule, the independence of the job and the ability to make my own decisions as to how particulars in the dorm get worked out, and the support system of the whole Student Life Staff is also very good,” he con- fided. “As an RA, will I get these benefits too? I wondered. Being a practical person, Mark warned me that though the job would be rewarding, I would probably not reach total fulfillment. Yet thinking back on the day, I was secure in the fact that the Student Life Staff was still intact and working to make student life as fulfilling as possible. — Brenda Hartman Ann Landis Faculty Staff 55 §0mc ■ fS Ci’-i'rA - Bl gg ,;'s HAPPENINGS Happenings 57 Linda Burkhart, Ann Landis Oriented Overnight New student orientation. Can one ever be oriented to something without actually ex- periencing it? Were we new students really supposed to be ready for college life after a weekend of activities? At least two things were accomplished: one, our minds were taken off of leaving our parents, and two, we met many other people. Sunday afternoon we were driven in a convoy of vans to Highland Retreat. After arriving, some of us had to hike “miles” uphill to campsites. Through the small groups and the informal afternoon activities we began to learn to know other new students better. After sup- per a sudden downpour that didn’t let up caught us outside playing organized games, so we spent the evening singing together in the tabernacle. We had to come back to the campus to sleep. I, for one, wasn’t too upset at that turn of events! Though the weekend seemed very busy and a bit hectic, it prepared us for college life in that it in- troduced us to other students. — Missy Thomas 58 Happenings Shirley Herr Shirley’s Head Is Spinning: Reflections On WEMC Weekend What was the 6th Annual WEMC Weekend? It included a Dutch Blitz tourna- ment, a Pink Panther movie, T-shirt giveaways, and the popular Rook tourna- ment. Another exciting aspect of the weekend was the Marathon which featured uninterrupted contemporary Christian music broadcast for 33 hours. As host of the Marathon, I had a front-row seat for the fun. A new addition to this year’s weekend was an eight-hour stint of broadcasting the Marathon live from Valley Mall. During that time, we gave away WEMC balloons and in- troduced the station’s ministry to those who stopped by our booth. Our financial goal for the weekend was $125 for each of the 33 hours of the Marathon. By the 25th hour of the Marathon, pledges exceeded our goal. When the festivities were over, we had reached $143 per hour in pledges, a total of $4719. Such generous financial support cer- tainly was heartwarming! The most rewarding aspect of the weekend, however, was the emotional sup- port and encouragement from our listening audience. Phone calls and visits are in- valuable when you’ve been spinning records for hours! That interest and concern made this Marathon another memorable one.

By mid-October, the entire committee had met and a speaker and theme for the weekend were chosen. Months of hard work paid off when Youth Convention ’84 — “Celebrate Life” — began. On Friday, April 6, three hundred youth poured onto the EMC campus and into donated student housing. An introductory session with convention moderator Mary Linde and a concert Brown Bannister marked the beginning of the celebration. Following the concert, conventioners had a snack in the cafeteria and got acquainted with one another. Saturday morning began with a “fun run” for those conventioners willing to be out on the track at 7:00. At 8:00, the entire group met for announcements and songs, led by Shane Lilly. Saturday morning seminars included topics such as Christian Dating, overcoming Hurt, VS Experience, and Career Choices. After brunch, the conventioners joined in on the fun of recreation tournaments. Saturday evening brought Ann Kiemel-Anderson and her talk, “1 Gave God Time.” Ann was followed by EMC’s Lawrence Dow and his gospel trio. A coffeehouse sponsored by SAC topped off the evening. On Sunday morning, the conventioners met for the last time in the chapel where Peggy Kellers led the worship service, thus ending the weekend on a great note. — Jenni Nash Ann Kiemel-Anderson Happenings 61 Lecture-Art Series September 24 October 24 . .

Groups and Organizations 87 YPCA I really enjoyed Saturday Adoption this year despite all of our trials and tribulations. The kids were really, well, themselves! The highlight for me was our Christmas party. The kids performed the Christmas story for their own program. It was surprising to me how fresh and new the story became when the kids acted it out. I’ve seen that same story acted out so often with the inevitable bathrobes, tea towel turbans and tinsel halos that it began to lose its meaning. To see kids who aren’t that familiar with the birth of Christ become a part of the story through drama brought it to life for me again. We had a five-year-old Joseph in a trench coat jogging to keep up with his wife, who was twelve. The baby popped out from her robes fully swaddled in the swaddling clothes. A few angels forgot their lines and one cow couldn’t produce a single moo. Things weren’t perfect, but what does that matter? They enjoyed the program so much that they performed it three times so that everyone could try out a part. I’m sure that we didn’t get across to them all that Christmas means but they taught me the importance of staying excited about the gift of God’s son. — Jeanne Zimmerly Out of a desire to serve and get involved in a church, I decided to sign up for a “Y” church. Along with three other girls, I attended Woodland Mennonite Church which is a small mountain church about 45 minutes from EMC. We taught Sunday School, helped lead children’s church, and led Sunday morning devotions. Typical of any situation, there were good and bad moments. It was interesting to learn more about the Appalachian people. I also enjoyed the increased responsibility in church; I had never prepared Sunday school lessons and devotions before. Most of all I found working with the children a real delight. They were generally enthusiastic, cooperative, and full of life. There were also some extremely frustrating moments. At times the 45 minute drive seemed interminable. Unfortunately Woodland was plagued with sporadic attendance. Being a person used to a typical Mennonite church, it was difficult to get used to seeing a family for three or four weeks, and then not see them for a month or more. I also missed good four part a cappella singing. However, I really value my year at Woodland. I learned about a different culture and their way of viewing God. Most valuable was learning the real difficulty of truly dedicating oneself to a church. — Liz Witmer YPCA Commissioners: Jeanne Zimmerly, Wally Braun, Keith Gross, Jan Stauffer, Rich Miniger, Harold Meyer, Dan Keener, Dave Driver, Bruce Brunk, Les Horning 88 Groups and Organizations Rick Rutt, Deb Hatter Barb Burkhart Joe Shenk, Margaret Alger, Faculty Advisors Mark Peachy, Co-President, Bill Longacre, Treasurer, Janette Roth, Vice-President, Millie Stoltzfus, Cabinet Secretary, Marci Kaufman, secretary Groups and Organizations 89 Bruce King, Doug Geib, Rod Yoder Dorm Councils Bruce Brunk, Jeff Newman, Evelyn Frey, Nancy Wollen, Rob French, Doug Borg, Simone Gordon, Shelby Landis Beth Lichty, Marcia Good, Teresa Brooks, Teresa Martin, Rose Landis, Carrie Martin, Lois Forrester, Nanci Martin Sarah Busching, Heidi Godshall, Jack!

Groups and Organizations 97 Discipleship Coordinators A new idea. An exciting frontier. An experiment of sorts. What is this? New scientific theories brought up to light here at EMC? Wrong. A new, modernistic architecture for the Campus Center? Wrong. Is it possible to believe that these lofty superlatives refer to a program that seeks to ex- emplify the towel and basin attitude? Among the clamor and confusion of the semester system, the freshly integrated Global Village cur- riculum and other notable events, is born and ex- ists the Discipleship Coordinators program. Joe Shenk, campus pastor, in a fruitful discussion with persons from Taylor University, Kansas, learned of a student-maintained spiritual life pro- gram there known as the Discipleship Coor- dinators. Not being one to refuse a new idea simply because it was germinated by someone else, Joe brought the concept back to EMC and proposed that a pot and potting soil be found for the program. The proposal took root and has begun to grow. The Discipleship Coordinator program, hesitantly but most definitely pushing out tender shoots, is made visible by one person from each resident hall on campus. These persons give meaning to the program by being responsible for promoting the budding of meaningful Bible studies prayer groups, being sensitive to needs of hallmates, and being willing to act upon those needs by referring to proper student services or simply being of ser- vice themselves. They might even serve as catalysts, nurturing others in the meaning of discipleship to Jesus Christ. They are, after all, Discipleship Coordinators. — Les Horning Back Row: Ed Nyce, Mike Borkholder, Brian Boettger, Thom Hoffman, Donna Freed, Barb Burkhart, Erika Buchen, Fred Crawford, David Weaver; Middle Row: Calvin Buchen, Elaine Horst, Kim Payne, Allison McGlaughlin, Marty Miller, Greg Moyer; Front Row: Becky Wilke, Deb Sharp, Jo Kauffman, Kim Logan, Ellie Bain, Curt Weaver; Les Horning, Student Pastor 98 Groups and Organizations Burell Fisher Cross Cultural Club The Cross Cultural Center participated in numerous activities, and was instrumental in coordinating Cross Cultural Student College Assemblies and Black Emphasis Month ac- tivities.

Many of us arrived with big expectations only to find a small reality. As we walked into the apartment, we were greeted by five small rooms and a bathroom. As we decided which would be the guys’ room and which the girls’ room, we stumbled across many problems with the house. The bath tub was full of various dead creatures, we had no telephone, the T.V. was broken, and we had the common New York house pets — roaches and mice! We soon realized that classes weren’t the on- ly thing that were required of us. We needed to budget our money, clean the house, cook the meals, depend on each other for sup- port, and clean up after each other. Because five people crammed in one apartment was often uncomfortable, getting out of the house was required to maintain patience and peace of mind. Big Expectations Throughout the semester, we visited the Big City — attended some shows and movies, ate at Chinatown, and had a blast. Although it usually took at least an hour to get downtown by subway, we had fun anyway. If it hadn’t been for Barry’s loud overbearing voice, Greg’s half hour showers, Ingrid’s cleanliness, Kevin’s big brotherly image, Glen’s fascinating hockey, or Dianne and Doris’ stubbornness on male and female issues, this group wouldn’t have been so unique. We were a diverse group, but that meant new areas of growth for each of us. Learning to cope with group living, com- promising, accepting other’s individuality, and following through on responsibilities were important lessons learned through our experience in New York City. — Barry Adams Front Row: Dianne Shenk, Barry Adams, Back Row: Dorris Shenk, Ingrid Harry, Kevin Swartz.

Most of the places where we go now don’t have paths going there, except makeshift ones through the mud. This was the year we lost that good ole Ad Building focus. EMC in 83-84 was a set of loosely con- nected satellites. Home Ec was under Village Square, as always, Nursing across from the Siminary and Education surround- ed by stacks. Music didn’t move from under the auditorium; the Planetarium’s umbrella still clusters Science, Math, Computers and Psychology, while Bible and Liberal Arts set- tled over Shamrock. Phys Ed and Athletics were content with their old farm house. EMC isn’t just academics. We’re also SGA, YPCA, and Amnesty International. We’re Peace Fellowship, WEMC, Student Mission Fellowship and winning athletic teams. EMC is off campusers, on cam- pusers, out-of-countryers and Oakwood. EMC is Crop Walk, Moose Music, Scott’s and Carrie’s guitar. We’re Blacks, Whites, Browns, Martin House and CCC, Youth Convention, Chamber Singers and RA’s. EMC is the Administration too, and all the rest. Assembly, this year more than before, now that the Ad Building is gone, was the one place where our scattered parts occa- sionally met and heard from each other affir- ming that, yes, we are all EMCers. EMC is a liberal arts college and a church college. What does it mean to be both liberal arts and church? Assembly models that rela- tionship, shows how people of The Way, followers of Jesus, may at the same time be people of Academia, lovers of learning, and people whose pilgrim lives are relevant to the 20th century. — Joe Shenk Billy Scott 130 Student Life Jennifer Knight The Best Christmas Pageant Ever Student Life 131 WSSY: A Transcultural Experience in Our Nation’s Capitol Washington Study Service Year offers many experiences to EMC and Goshen Col- lege students. Ten months, from August to June, are spent living and learning in the ci- ty. The students split their time between at- tending University of Maryland and working in an agency or school. Getting through traf- fic to work on time and putting in two and a half days a week of interviewing, teaching, counseling or researching becomes as impor- tant as reading textbooks and studying for exams. Among this, students find time to ex- plore and get to know the city itself from Chinatown to Capital Hill. And in all these things WSSY proves to be a transcultural experience. An EMC student doesn’t need to travel far to find different cultures. True, there are no balmy beaches, grass huts, or barefoot natives, no Eiffel Towers or deployed American missiles, but WSSY is a transcultural experience nonetheless. Most Mennonite college students were born and raised in isolated rural areas and Mennonite ghettos. For these people a large city such as Washington, D.C. can be just as foreign as Tegucigalpa, Honduras, San Jose, Costa Rica, or Paris, France. The rich upper class political people found in the Georgetown and Chevy Chase neighborhoods have different values and time orientation though they share our language and race. One can find even more sub-cultures within the various neighborhoods of Washington. Latin American, Black Africans, and Orientals live just a few blocks from each other. Each culture has its own values, traditions and even language separate from each other, and the larger city. English is the only language prerequisite to being in WSSY, but knowing Spanish, Chinese, and jive helps in communicating with many people living in Washington. In the neighborhoods of Shaw, Chinatown, and Adams Morgan, English is seldom spoken. These people learn English only to com- municate with the outside world, the blocks beyond their neighborhood. Much of the transcultural experience takes place at internships. They’re located all over the city and with all different kinds of people. Janet works with El Salvadorian refugees, improving her Spanish and Social Work skills. Cindy teaches Catholic up- perclass high school students and is a stage manager at the Kennedy Center. Rosita also teaches, but her students are emotionally disturbed black kids who had difficulty in the public schools. Rik works with poor black elderly people released from St. Elizabeth’s Hospital, helping them orient themselves back into society. Jeanne interacts with politicians on Capital Hill as she works with MCC Peace Section. In seminar, students study and process institutions, the servant-leader role, and pro- blems that they encounter living in the city. Many transcultural issues surface such as black white relations and discrimination of the poor. The daily interaction with the rich and the poor, the black and the white, the hispanic and the oriental gives each WSSY partici- pant a transcultural experience just 120 miles from campus. — Emily North Richard Troyer, Jeanne Shirk, Steve Yoder, Dave Boshart, Amy Rosenberger, Rosita Bender, Lisa Gallager, Cindy Lapp, Emily North, Janet Liechty, Doug Brunk 132 Student Life Lisa Gallager The WSSY people lead a college assembly.

We climbed the highest peak in England and Wales today: Mt. Snowdon. Round trip took us about five hours — four going up and one coming down. It’s over 3,000 feet high. The last half-hour’s walking going up was the worst. A blasting wind made walking nearly impossible sometimes. We were walking in the clouds, literally, and the mist made our hair soaking wet. The cold set in to an extremely uncomfortable point from then on. We’d have been in serious danger If we’d stayed much longer. The warnings posted everywhere about highly changeable weather are not to be ignored.” — Liz Chase We arrived at the Royal Festival Hall. Gorgeous place! I sat there listening to the London Philharmonic playing Beethoven’s No. 9, Joyful, Joyful We Adore Thee,” with a huge choir. I could have been in heaven. I’ve made arrangements with them to play at my wedding!” — Rita Good We are really in rural Ireland now. The place we’re at now isn’t even a town. There are stone fences everywhere. Sometimes the fences are so close together you have to wonder if they didn’t just need a place to pile rocks. And damp. I’ve seen moss growing on asphault. It has to be wet for that. . . . . . The feelings going on inside me a couple days after we arrived are hard to explain. In our group ses- sions we described it as weird.” It’s a feeling one can’t describe and can’t find a reason why it’s there. I think it’s called culture shock. I went through much more culture shock coming back than I did going there.” — Jay Miller Quiet and still, I sat on an old park bench along the famous Thames River, realizing with every passing minute that this was my last night in London . . . tomor- row I’m going home! I watched the red double-decker buses weave in and out of traffic that crossed the bridge ... I watched the rippling reflections of the brilliantly lit Houses of Parlia- ment in the dark waters ... 1 watched the hands of Big Ben move slowly as time ticked by ... I watched the London citizens walk by, conversing quietly in their suave British accents . . . Tears rolled down my face as I got up to leave. The thought I’ll be back someday, London” was the only consulation I had!” — Renee Souder Deb Van Pelt, Renee Souder Student Life 135 “All is Well. 99 “Our God Will Never Us Forsake” There are times when we come together to rejoice, and there are times when we come together to share in sorrowful occa- sions. But our purpose in calling our coming together this noon is to renew our sense of being one body with a common concern. Many hours have gone into the project that was greatly damaged last night. Hours of constructive labor by volunteers and others, financial contributions that have come from the resources of our friends and supporters all over the constituency and the country were lost in last night’s happening. The building that has been greatly destroyed has existed here on campus since 1919 and represents a kind of symbol of the life of EMC and its various stages over these past 65 years, and so when a ravaging fire takes place, it causes pain that is sharp and deep not only among us on campus as a campus family community, but also to persons who have been associated and identified with EMC S over the years, as well as our neighboring community. However, EMC S is still people here and now — you and I, and all ofus with a future. No harm has befallen us in the difficulties of this early morning experience. All records, all opera- tions are safe, and especially all of our dor- mitory residents have not been touched. We are really grateful to God for that providen- tial care. The structures around us only con- tain life. They are not our ultimate goal or our hope of life. And so in the midst of loss, we are thankful for God’s providence, and we only ask how we can be grateful in our expressions and how we can renew our hope and determination to respond in a way that brings good from bad. Certainly, if no spar- row falls apart from God’s providential knowledge, then we know that with him and con'tp. 137 his further guidance and wisdom and with the cooperation of all, we can move on to ac- complish what is still in God’s plan for our future and which has been in the making all along. We don’t minimize the reality and the painfulness of our loss, but we see it as a challenge rather than a defeat. It is our op- portunity above all to put our faith to work ... I was thinking of the concern when another building was taking place, the building of the temple in the Old Testament times. Nehemiah said, “So we built the wall.” The people had a mind to work and move ahead. I want to encourage us with another scripture in this same story which we think about when faced with adversarial problems and difficulties that come to us. In this case, they are those of nature and fire, not of persons, but we can apply this state- ment: “For they all wanted to frighten us con’tp. 138 Fire 137 thinking. Their hands will drop from the work and it will not be done.’ But not that, oh God, strengthen our hands.” So in that sense of spirit I want to call us to a time of praise to God for what he has meant to us in enabling us in our development here at EMC, including the renovation that was go- ing on, and to express our renewed con- fidence in the future . . . ... In everything God works for good. The fire is bad in this particular cir- cumstance, but in everything God continues to do his work . . . . . . Our God, we come to you with con- fidence. You listened to us in the past and you will continue to into our future. We pray your mercies. Thank you for your pro- vidence, and we ask for the strengthening of our hands, our minds', our wills. Open up the new avenues of our moving together in the ways that you would have us to go. We give you praise in the midst of difficulties that have beset us and we ask that in all things con'tp. 139 138 Fire we might live out a life of praise knowing that you as Lord of history, and Lord of our lives, and Lord of our affairs, and Lord of our campus are yet the one who will lead us on. For this we give you thanks in Jesus’ name. Amen . . . . .. Well, it’s great to see the full auditorium this morning and I can’t resist telling of the experience of two men wat- ching their church burn down. The first man said, “I haven’t seen you in many a day here at the church,” and the other man replied, “Well, it’s the first time I’ve seen the church on fire.” I hope that the kind of fire that this common experience together here generates will be the fire of Spirit that will make possible our moving on in the faith of Christ. Let us put that faith to work. (Excerps from President Richard Detweiler’s Chapel Address the morning following the fire. Following is President Detweiler’s up- date summerizing the action being taken toward rebuilding.) In response to wide-spread interest, a broad-base appeal was issued for one hun- dred dollars per person gifts to bolster a Campus Center rebuilding fund. Along with this, a challenge match gift of one-half million stimulated further major contribu- tions. A student workday, bake sale, and auction added substantially to the needed funds, the proceeds being matched by three donors to spur the effort and double the out- come. Church conferences assisted in the rebuilding campaign by urging congrega- tional offerings, in some promoting the “barn-raising” idea of members contributing one day’s wages. Local area news media were supportive and gave the need high visibility in their coverage. Redesigning of the Center was authorized by the Trustees to be within the resources in hand or anticipated to be available over the next five to seven years. The attempt was made to provide for as much of the program originally planned to be accommodated in the Campus Center. Alumni, friends, church constituents, business firms along with the campus com- munity itself continued to respond with the mind of the biblical character, Nehemiah, who said, “Let us arise and build .. The dream of a Campus Center, the plans that had been made, the work of many volunteers that had already gone into the renovation before the fire would not be thrown away. Rather, as the Harrisonburg DAILY NEWS-RECORD stated, “The en- tire community . .. will rally to help in rebuilding. ENC will rise stronger from the ashes of its fire.” Faith, sorely tested, will again have the opportunity to prove the faithfulness of God.

NY s 146 Freshmen “I Made It!” EMC’s first students in wheelchairs adjust like other students Freshmen Tony Wright and Patty Cooper were probably two of themost well-known students on campus because of their wheelchairs. But as one learned to know them better and more personally, one discovered that Tony and Patty are basically the same as other college students. They are concerned about the same things that con- cern other students — tests, grades, and classes. Both Tony and Patty found the classes in college more difficult than high school. Get- ting back into the swing of going to classes and the responsibility that goes with a more structured schedule was Tony’s biggest ad- justment to college life. But he enjoyed his courses and teachers, even though the classes were a challenge to him. Patty’s hardest adjustment was getting used to all the people. After she became confined to a wheelchair, Patty spent most of her time at home. Though she had been outgoing and friendly, she began withdrawing into herself. “But I made it!” Patty says happily. Patty has adapted well to campus life and really enjoys being at EMC. Patty and Tony are cheerful, friendly peo- ple, open and easy to talk to. They are an in- spiring, special addition to our campus. — Missy Thomas Tony Wright and Patty Cooper Freshmen 147 Terrence L. Jantzi Harrisonburg, VA Lyla Johnson Sarasota, FL David S.

An excellent example of this preparation for service can happen through EMC students’ involvement at Diakonia, a short term emergency shelter located in Ocean City, Maryland. Carl Stauffer, a sophomore social work major, describes his past summer at Diakonia as an invaluable experience. “Coming back to school and my textbooks, I found it was much easier to understand what I was reading after having had on-the-job ex- perience.” Along with the experience, Carl earned money toward his next year at EMC and also filled his sophomore field ex- perience requirement. Carl describes Diakonia as a channeling service where everyone from runaways to battered wives to alcoholics can stay until they are accepted into a program which specializes in the area of their need. Diakonia works with the community, accep- ting referrals from the police, churches, and other local organizations. Their line is open 24 hours a day for these referrals. A large part of their work is providing a home set- ting for their guests and teaching them responsibility. “We enjoy our security and it’s hard to understand people who live without that.” Carl notes. “But we learn by seeing that other world. It’s good to do a lot of listening and not a lot of talking.

Buitenlander ... der Auslander ... rX uring the 1982-83 school year four EMC students were sent overseas by Mennonite Central Committee as trainees to experience a new kind of lifestyle and to offer their services to families in Holland, France, Germany, or Switzerland. Learning their skills and the language was half of their experience, but the less tangible half, learning about themselves in a different context, was a process that continued throughout the trainees’ year. Kathy Weaver and Doug Stoltzfus went to Holland to live with the Dutch. Doug spent the first part of his year fixing old people’s toilets and ended it caring for lilacs. Part of Kathy’s busy days included cleaning house, as did Brenda Hartman’s in her placements in Germany and Switzerland. Penny Peery, who lived in France, delivered milk and cheese, among other farm duties. Learning the customs and ways of the area was not all they got out of the Foreigner for a Year experience. As Brenda put it, “The experience took me off my academic pedestal, helped me to see beyond term papers and exams and wearing schedules, and yet enabled me to return with a deeper “A time to gather stones . . . New ideas, new customs . . . A time to search . . . New values and objectives for your life ...” — M. Albrecht, A. Leichty, trainees appreciation for the different forms and varieties that education offers.” Penny appreciated the fact that she could not only learn about what the French are like, but she could also help the French to understand what Americans are like. They are just as anxious to learn about us as we are to learn about them, she noted. “It helped me to realize my limitations and abilities,” reflected Kathy. “A year away from school taught me to value the knowledge I had already accumulated, and at the same time it gave me the desire to complete my schooling.” Doug realized, “A year away from America really gave me a greater awareness of some customs that are particularly American — some to appreciate and others worth forgetting. I feel I now look at situations from a ‘human’ point of view as opposed to that of an ‘American’.” Kathy, Brenda, Doug and Penny’s stories and reflections remind us that we do live in a Global Village and invite us to explore it. — Rachel Hartman 168 Juniors Jeff Roth, Brenda Hartman, Steve Buckwalter, Penny Peery, Douglas Stoltzfus, Kathy Weaver Joel S.

For all of those who are leaving their college experience behind, though, there is the shared process of reflection on the past, involvement in the present, and anticipation of the future. Donna Moyer, from Perkasie, PA, is involved in student teaching, an important milestone for education majors. “When you’re in student teaching, you’re always counting the days until it’s over,” she says. “Then you can say. I’ve done my student teaching, I’m almost finished.” Even though student teaching isn’t an easy experience, Donna emphasizes that it is a valuable one. The block program has done a good job of preparing her for professional teaching, Donna believes. She characterized the block sequence, which incorporates gradually increasing teaching responsibilities, as a confidence building process. “When I began the program, it seemed like student teaching would be awfully hard,” she recalls. “It is hard, but once I got here I felt like I was ready.” According to Donna, EMC has had a significant influence on her plans for profession and lifestyle. She attributes much of her growth to interaction with different people on campus. “I met lots of people from different places and was exposed to the world around me,” she explains. “I learned what my faith is about, and how to challenge myself. I found out that other people struggle with many of the same things that I do.” Even though EMC has broadened her perspectives, Donna feels that she needs to get out and work to really understand what the world is about. After she graduates, she is looking forward to a possible VS assignment and then to finding a job in early childhood education or daycare. “The first year out of school I just want to find a place to locate myself and find out what it’s really like to work and to not be in school.” After a year of getting used to the “real world,” Donna wants to serve in a VS position or work through the church. Making a lot of money is not one of her priorities. “I want to go where I’m really needed,” she says. ctavio Cortes is a senior sociology major from Managua, Nicaragua. After attending the University of Nicaragua for three years, he decided that his studies in civil engineering were not related to the church work that he was involved in and planned to continue with. His decision to leave the University was also influenced by the increased activity of the Protestant churches’ organization in the wake of Nicaragua’s 1972 earthquake. For the next ten years Octavio worked with this organization in areas such as literacy, improvement of health conditions, and increasing of agricultural production. After the revolution in Nicaragua in 1979, Octavio and his wife, Ana, decided that the time had come to finish their formal educations. Their church organization agreed with their decision and offered financial support. With the help of sociology professor Vernon Jantzi and academic dean A1 Keim, both of whom they had met in “But then you realize, hey, we’re go- ing to get out into the big world!” Nicaragua, Octavio and Ana were able to enroll at EMC in the fall of 1982. Upon arrival in the United States, Octavio found that he had adjustments to make. Along with the inevitable culture shock, there was the stress of beginning to study again after ten years in the working world. It was also hard for Octavio to deal with the fact that most of the students were younger than he was. He says, “Establishing communication with the students has been difficult for me. There is the age gap, and also, we have no common problems.” Octavio mentions that several professors were very helpful in encouraging him to persevere in his studies and to overcome the language barrier. Studying at EMC has helped Octavio to systemetize all the knowledge that he acquired in the area of his work. “It has helped me to get a new perspective on my work,” he says. “I can now step back and reflect on my past actions and plan for future projects.” “The professors here are serving a feast, and it is my responsibility to take away the bones and eat only what I want.” This is Octavio’s approach to learning. He feels that not everything that is taught in his classes is applicable to his work, and that he must separate out what is useful to him. After having spent almost two years at EMC, Octavio is feeling comfortable with his situation here. After he graduates, however, he is anticipating returning to his work in Nicaragua. T A he nursing program has taken up much of Sharon Replogle’s time for the past two and a half years. She has also been involved in varsity sports and in a YPCA church. “For me, Y church added a lot to school here,” she says. “You have your own little group, and they take you in and make you feel welcome.” In deliberating between pre-med and nursing during her freshmen year, Sharon decided that nursing was more in keeping with her ideas about lifestyle and service. Also, she said, “I knew that the nursing program was very good.” Sharon mentions Mariamma Thomas of the nursing faculty as having been a real friend. She has pushed me to learn new things and given me confidence in myself.” Calvin Shenk is another professor that stands out for Sharon. “I really admire him,” she says. “He has done a lot for my faith. He’s such a dramatic person — he gets you excited about what you’re studying.” The nursing program, with its emphasis on the integration of the spiritual, biological, social, and psychological, nas prepared her well for professional nursing, Sharon believes. “Being professional is an attitude. It involves so much,” she says. “A professional nurse must really care and want to help people.” Sharon credits the nursing program with giving her self-awareness and confidence, as well as helping her to see her strengths and limitations. Much of the curriculum is concerned with interpersonal relationships, and Sharon believes that this emphasis has helped her to accept herself, thus enabling her to accept others. “And when I can accept other people, then I can help them.” Sharon is working toward a self-imposed deadline for completing her studies. She admits that there is a considerable amount of pressure involved, but adds that the motivation of being almost done is also high. The self-discipline that she has learned in the demanding program will carry over into her future activities, she believes. “It’s sort of scary getting ready to leave,” Sharon says. “I’ve made a lot of friends in the community.” She expresses the thoughts and feeling of many seniors when she observes, “There’s a lot of security in being a student. But then you realize, hey, we’re going to get out into the big world!” Seniors 193 Capitolist THOUGH HIS HOMETOWN is Coatesville, Pa., Psychology major Herb Landis has made Washington, D.C. his second home after his year in WSSY.

We struggle with it, develop it, and continue to learn new insights and truth. Vocation. We come to study, prepare for a career, learn skills to secure us a place in the world beyond EMC. Most appropriately named Faith and Vocation, Senior IDS attempts to bring those two elements together, to help us realize that our personal com- munity values don’t always flow so smoothly with those of society where professional “eats” professional. There’s bound to be rough water. Can we be professionally employed and still live out kingdom values? Or, as one put it, “Would EMC exist without the well-paid (often professional) Men- nonites who support and send their children to this institution?” From feeling like products to be turned out for sale, to enjoying the procedures of the course, seniors ad- mitted that they were forced to deal with issues where black and white ap- pear to become gray, or where gray remains gray. It’s a challenge to become aware now before they launch on their “new beginning.” Gaylord R.

Let’s Dialogue With the end of the school year at hand one finds the senior class eyeing each other with looks that can’t quite be labeled, but lie somewhere between the categories of curiosity and horror. What do they see in one another that surprises and shocks them this way? Is it the accumulative efforts of EMC personnel to turn out students of Chris- tian higher education, enriched livers of the holistic health movement, tribe members of that global village nestled in the heart of scenic and historic Shenandoah Valley? Since the moment that they signed their statements of commitment so long ago, the senior class has been striving to obtain the in- terdiscipline of the towel and basin attitude which will enable them to contribute richly, but humbly, to the global tapestry of human experience. Have they become cross- cultural pilgrims learning for life the multidimensional qualities of emotional autocracy, mediation, confrontation, in- terdependence, historic roots and steward- ship? Are they products of EMC or perhaps just Another Improvement of Mission Up- date? — Katrina Eby Linda S. Shank Harrisonburg, VA Nursing Joyce Y.

Following the pin- ning, graduates “celebrated good times” with their friends and families on the Chapel steps and lawn. Saturday evening, the graduating class, family, friends, faculty, and administration filled the Chapel-Auditorium for the Bac- calaureate service. Peggy Kellers, Assistant Peggy Kellers, Baccalaureate speaker Professor of Physical Education and co-class advisor, in the keynote address, “Press on Toward the Mark,” called graduates to strive for excellence. Senior Becky Derstine asked her class to evaluate “the future in their eyes,” to consider their vision of what is ahead. Classmate Mike Lehman reflected on his experience by comparing college to Jesus’ temptations in the wilderness. Con- gregational singing was led by Professor Jay Landis, also a co-advisor of the class. Bac- calaureate was followed by a music concert. The President’s Breakfast for Seniors and their parents in the gym began Commence- ment Day, April 29. Because of threatening weather, Commencement activities were moved from the front campus lawn to JMU’s Convocation Center. Class Co-Presidents Wendy Godshall and Sammy Skaggs gave salutations, and Class Business Manager Ed Brubaker presented the class gift designated for campus lighting. Marge Maust, Assistant Professor of Music, sang “He That Keepeth Israel” by A. Schlosser, and Professor Ken Nafziger led congregational hymns. Dr. George W. Webber, visiting professor of Urban Ministry at New York Theological Seminary, addressed the audience of several thousand persons. His message was a provocative challenge to seek justice, to “Seek the Shalom of the City.” President Richard Detweiler then awarded 224 degrees to over 200 graduates.
