ORDER OF THE TOWER One of the most outstanding service organizations at Lees-McRae College is the Order of the Tower. The pri- mary purpose of the Order of the Tower is to serve Lees- McRae and the administration in a leadership capacity and to promote the general welfare of the college. The members of the Club assist in orientation, serve as marshals for special programs and graduation, and serve as hosts for visiting groups and dignitaries. The last service rendered by each year's outgoing members is the direction of the Awards Night program. The annual Halloween Carnival, sponsored by the Order of the Tower, provides a money-making project for the Club as well as for other clubs on campus. The club promotes good relations in all areas and serves as an advisory body to the faculty.

CHRISTIAN COUNCIL The Christian Council, under the leadership of verend Robert Newman, plans and directs the ligious activities at Lees-McRae. This organ- ation serves as the core of the Student Christian ssociation and strives to promote a better spiritual mosphere on campus. The Christian Council, acting as spiritual con- ience, stimulates Christian thought, study, and rvice within the student body, challenging each ember to understand and commit himself to the way f Christ. To promote a more active Christian fellowship, e Council encourages student participation in orship services, service projects, and community elations hips . The student Christian Association includes all tudents and functions through an elected Council hich plans and co-ordinates activities for everyone. ll students attend Sunday evening Vespers twice a onth when outstanding ministers from all over the outh visit the campus. On alternate Sundays, Vespers ncludes a variety of informal, discussion-type orship experiences. Midweek worship is every ednesday morning at 10:00. Opportunities for ecreation and service round out this largely student- ed program. Witha resident enrollment of around 500 the Stu- ent Christian Association provides opportunities for he campus community as a whole to gather together n recognition and promotion of our common faith. Another focal point acknowledges the different enominational traditions. Although a plurality of resbyterian students enroll in Lees- McRae, Baptist, ethodist, Episcopalian, Lutheran, Roman Catholic, nd several other churches are represented on ampus. The Westminister Fellowship, the Episcopal utheran Fellowship, the Baptist- Lutheran Club, and he Newman Club foster their respective Christian mphasis and provide a stimulating interchange for he community as a whole. Thus, a dialogue between common cause and diversity of interpretation characterizes Lees-McRae as sound academic curricula presented in a context hich is seeking to understand and to express the Iimplications which arise out of the event of Jesus Christ. --Robert G.
