CHRISTIAN ASSOCIATION Organized in the fall of 1948, the Christian Associa- tion's presence was immediately felt as it followed its purpose, To unite through fellowship and service all of those believing in the Christian way of life. De- veloping because of the need for an organization which would include every student, interest in the Christian Association was immediately aroused by its freshman orientation program and its all-college get-acquainted party. By bringing outstanding speakers to the campus, and by accepting projects of social aid in the com- munity, it has made a great contribution to campus life.
