ectil. ,- l New Library Facilities Keep Students Informed Maintaining a good college library from year to year is very difficult. Creating a orand new library of 10,000 volumes in less than two years is nearly impossible. This, however, was the goal set oy Miss lVlaurine Dickerson, the first librarian of Mid-America Nazarene College. Starting with a zone-wide 1967, MANC began collect -ibrary offering in March of ing the necessary books and funds. The Pioneer Book CQub, whose members gave at least 500 dollars or 100 books, was formed at the same time. The cataloguing of these new books was more than a full time job for lVliss Dickerson, her staff, and whatever help she could find. Almost miraculously, however, 12,000 volumes were catalogued and ready for use by the beginning of school, and this number con- tinued to grow throughout the year. Student assistants help the adult clerical employees do the regular work necessary to the working of a cam- pus study center. Frances Draper, Judy Nletz, and Eva Metz process books for circulation. Al Kruse studies diligently in the private study booths. Mike Robinson does research in the li- brary.

Dr. Sawyer is on the alert for any student needing help on an Old Testament test. Religion Classes Discuss Beliefs And Bible History Dr. Donald lVletz, Professor of Biblical Literature and Re. ligion The Religion Department of the Pioneer Class will be remembered as one of the larger departments, and certainly all will remember its professors and their sincere dedication. Dr. Nletz, our Dean of Academics, a well qualified and well informed man of our reli- gion, taught a beneficial course in Christian Beliefs- how to appreciate and apply our Nazarene doctrines. Dr. Sawyer with several classes of Old Testament, kept his students busy doing memory work on im- portant portions of the Bible such as: Isaiah 53, the Ten Commandments from context, Psalms 23, and ten Holiness Scriptures. Also they learned the vital importance of Codis word in contemporary times.
