A FINAL REVIEW It is not a simple matter to assess the school year; too many complex inter-actions exist. But on the surface, it has been a good year — all agree that there was little to disturb the equilibrium of the campus. To some, the calm merely reflected the nation-wide mood of student apathy. Several events seem to negate this theory. Students turned out to vote in record numbers November 2. The Student Senate election drew a smashing 80% turnout, unprecedented after a series of dull campaigns in recent years. ‘Spirit Days’’ involved campus-wide participation to support winning soccer, wrestling, and baseball teams. Even a losing basketball team could not complain about a lack of vocal backing. President LeTourneau revealed a fresh candor when he went before the student body with a mid-year financial statement and progress report which brought immediate and positive student response. He spent much of the year revamping fiscal and administrative policy to produce efficiency and stability. The death of second-year student, John E. Nauman was a sad beginning for the year. The Dean of Students, SA’s, and counsellors will readily admit that we did not win all of the battles in the area of discipline and Christian living. Oh yes, there were problems and losses, but there was a growing awareness that our problems were small in comparison with God’s evident blessing on our college. Next year’s pre-registration and admissions records seem to predict that all-time enrollment records will be shattered with a student body that will over-flow campus housing. The Good Friday communion service embodied the feeling of spiritual unity that matured during the passing months of 1976-77. And we had a lot to be thankful for! 262
