The Goshen College student supple- ments his formal education through his participation in the wide range of cam- pus climate. The more ambitious students rise early to be on time tor chorus, or spend long hours in the periodical room looking up debate material. Others learn to fly air- planes, write poetry, or participate in one of the many student organizations. Bud- ding iournalists put in time in the Maple Leaf and Record offices. More vocal coun- terparts operate WGCS. Within the organization of the YPCA, every student finds an opportunity to share his spiritual life and to grow by serving others. An extensive intramural program, as well as impromptu games of all kinds, provide welcome recreation. The extra- mural sports program brings opportuni- ties for interaction with other colleges. Organizations are vital to the Goshen campus. Participation in them is a means of relaxation but also a cultivation of the dimension of creativity.
