He first heard of Evangel from his uncle, David Nyien, who graduated from Central Bible College iCBQ. Wu said it was very dif- ficult to get out of China, It took a year before the govern- ment granted me permission to leave the country. When he left his family in the city of Chengtu, he knew he would probably never re- turn. Wu said the government did not like Christians. It's different from America, he said, You can't go out into the street and say you believe in Jesus. When asked to contrast America with China, Wu re- plied, Here in America you can go to church and worship openly, but in China most Christians meet in secret.ll Wu was very grateful to be in America and excited about Evangel. He said there were some difficult adjustments. One was learning to speak English more fluently. What English he knew before he came to America he taught himself. He also studied math on his own and studied cal- culus last year. Wu plans to transfer to the University of Illinois in 1981 to study English and finish his math. After that he would like to return to either Evangel or CBC to study Bible. Wu said, God changed . my life and l have to do everything for God. - Virgil Baklren When loe Wu, freshman, left his home in Mainland China, he knew he would probably never return. y m, l Conant, Dolly Urwin, PM Cope, Cathy tNew Blaine, ARy Coulter, Rusty lPonca City, OKl Cox, Rhonda tTullahoma, TNy Dahlager, Sheryl tSacred Heart, MNl Davis, Genise L. iSpringfield, MOl Dean, Patrice tEast Alton, lLl DeMent, Doug lSpringfield, MOl ll Detlessen, Jewell tCanon City, COl Detwiler, Gregg iOttawa, KSl ye Divincehzo, Frank thk Lawn, lLl 1, Dizanne, Linda lAlsip, lLl l Doebler, ludy tRichfield, MNy ; Dudenhefer, Harry New Orleans, LAl l Edwards, Anietra tSpringfield, M0y ' Elder, Melanie tHarrisville, WW .' ,5 Eller, Cindy tCasper, WYl ' 3 Ellis, Lester tBryn Mawr, PAl i Evans, Cathy tHuntington, lNy i Eytzen, Ruth iMadison, WD 1 Feicht, Bob lLima, OHy l l Fisher, Mike lSpringfield, MOl l l l l Flack, Edith lMelburn, FD Fletcher, Darla lPoint, TXl Flippo, Lon tOttawa, Ksy 1 Fogelsong, Mary iNaperville, IU Forare, Rebecca tAnnandale, MN I Force, Victor tPerry, OKl ; Frost, A.

O ne of the rapidly grow- ing organizations on campus was the Student Mis- souri State Teachers Associa- tion iSMSTAi. In four years membership increased from nine to almost 35. Our purpose is to get the education4 students involved because graduates are required to be a member of some sort of teachers association, said Sherri Kolas, senior and pre- sident of the club. One of SMSTA's activities was the annual Christmas party for underprivileged children. Members of the organization brought children to the Student Union where the party was held. Approximately 25 children participated in this event according to Miss Kolas. Other activities included the annual caramel apple stand at Autumn Festival, the prepar- ation of Easter baskets for needy families in the area, and , a candy drive which was a fund raising activity to pay for the Easter baskets, the Christmas party and the expense of sending delegates to the annual teachers convention.
