gtl 06l02Cf 0 CL QPCLJ Remember those early days of Orientation? Such a whirl of activity greeted us as we received a hearty welcome, the name Freshman, and a class motto, Learn of Me. This was our purpose in coming to L.B.I. - to learn more of Him. Our learning came not only through the example of godly professors and the exposition of God's Word but also through experiences great and small. Financial crises and Satan's attacks on both the school and the individual were all met by a loving, faithful God. Our first great experience came unexpectedly in the homegoing of our dear reg- istrat, Miss Jean Scott. Her testimony, sung by the choir at her funeral, will always quicken our hearts when we hear it: Beneath the Cross of Jesus I Fain Would Take My Stand . We missed the sweet presence of that one so influential in the lives of countless students. And soon we were to miss another. At our first graduation ceremony came the announcement of Dr. Gannett's return to Dallas Theological Seminary as a professor. We were happy for our president, but sad at our loss. In the spring of our second year we rejoiced when through Dr. joseph Macaulay, our conference speaker, God led Rev. Percy Harris to accept the presidency. Not long afterwards he received his Doctor of Theology from Dallas Theological Seminary. Arriving back at school for our third year. we discovered in delight our dining hall interior beautifully decorated. We are continually grateful to friends and our fac- ulty who sacrificed to give us this pleasure. The Christmas Musicale, instituted by our class was a highlight of our third year. So was the Graduation banquet for which we were responsible. Yet long after these memories fade, February fourteenth, the night of our semi-formal banquet will still be vivid. The presentation of Dr. Harris' life in This is your Life means even more to us now. Little did we suspect that in eight months he would be stricken with polio. We all learned far more of our Saviour's love and compassion when our president lay paralyzed for three weeks and finally went to be with the Lord. Our hearts are thankful that Accreditation became a reality just prior to Dr. Harris' death. Yes, much has happened in four short years. We've seen progress brought about by changes too numerous to mention. Profitable years? Yes, exceedingly so. And did not our hearts burn within us as He walked and talked with us by the way and while He opened unto us the Scripture CLuke 242525. And now comes our time to graduate. We become freshmen again as we enter a new phase of our lives, but still we will continue to learn of Him. Page 19
