People, groups and a belief help spread The Word Fairmont State had more than one Christian organiza- tion on campus. These organi- zations offered students the op- portunity to gather and study God ' s word, fellowship with other Christians and form life- changing beliefs. Such organizations as Baptist Campus Ministry, Navigators, Intervarsity Christian Fellow- ship, Christian Student Union, and Fellowship of Christian Athletes met on a weekly basis and were headed by church leaders or Fairmont State facul- ty. Each organization offered a different emphasis. BCM, a church-affiliated club, spon- sored such activities as snow skiing and several conferences and retreats and participated in nationally sponsored confer- ences. Navigators, an international organization led by public members, were widely known for their intense Biblical knowl- edge and held their meetings in private homes. Intervarsity, an international organization, met on campus and was led by Fairmont State faculty. This club presented Christian films to the students on a monthly basis and also sponsored an activity night in the Colebank gym. Christian Student Union, which met at the Wesley Foun- dation, not only had Bible study on a weekly basis, but was guite socially active. They sponsored retreats and also helped to send missionaries overseas. One such activity was the Rock-a-thon, in which students rocked in rocking chairs for a specified time in or- der to raise money. Finally, a new arrival on campus was the FCA, headed by faculty. Meeting on a week- ly basis, this organization con- sisted of athletes interested in Bible study and Christian fel- lowship. The goal of each of these or- ganizations is to give students an opportunity to express their religious beliefs. A SYMBOL of new beginning, the butterfly, represents Christian life.
