And things don't seem to upset him much. He just takes life in stride. Other things students associate with Mr. Pearson are: daily take-home quizzes, a pair of white shoes, a height of 6'2 , and a love for missions. Former missionary to British Honduras, Mr. Pearson now heads up Multnomah's missions department, teaching missions as well as Bible. Mr. Lewis Randal, the man who during orientation week gives students a lecture on how to use the library, has been describ- ed by some of them as one of the kindest, most humble men we've ever met. Besides his normal heavy responsibilities as school librarian, Mr. Randal has recently been closely involved with Multnomah's ad- ministration on the huge task of making plans for the school's proposed new library. A real gentleman, Mr. Randal mows his lawn in a white shirt and a tie, and tips his hat to ladies. He's a man of minute detail, another student said, a true perfectionist. . Ask Dean F. Pamela Reeve tno one knows what the F. stands forl what is most important and she will say, Live life to the hilt and become all that God wants you to be. When you write a letter, she tells the women, when you do your hair, when you think, don't just do it in the same old way-do it creatively? And Miss Reeve practices what she teaches. Her appointment book is always full weeks in advance because she has creative answers to student's problems. Her knowledge of layout and design allows her to create artistic overhead transparan- cies for visual aids. I love lifef' she says. I absolutely love it P -s 5 PI0 swag U0 9'I sim IUPUBH aa:-mag elaumd

In fact, he'll even hold your attention and cause you to say, f'Man! That sure went by fast! All of his classes go by too fast. Head of MSB's Christian Education Minor, Bill Muir makes an impression on his students. He has a knack for getting peo- ple to think for themselves, especially in one particular class. Few students pass through Multnomah without taking contemporary home life. Each semester, the class grows larger and larger. Besides teaching a number of C.E. courses, Muir devotes time to assisting the class of '76 who is proud to have him as their advisor. Wow! That's how David Needham describes his God. And after sitting in on one of his classes, you wind up saying Wow! right along with him. Perhaps that's why this year's Junior Class chose him as their faculty advisor. When asked if he could attend the Ap- preciation Banquet held in honor of the Junior women, he replied, Only on one condition-that I get to help serve. In the classroom, students discover that Needham thinks not only with his mind, but with his heart. That's why David Needham can take whatever subject he's given, whether it's Bible, Bible study methods, or Bible doctrine, and cause his students to say, Wow! If you see a neatly-dressed man with a well-trimmed moustache hurrying between the journalism building and the public relations office, that's Paul Peabody. Ex-MSB student, Ex-Uplook editor, pre- sent graphics instructor and publications adviser, Peabody is an efficient person and a good organizer. Students have come to respect his spiritual and practical leadership. As one student said, I like him because he has his life in order. I mean, his priorities are in the right places and he is well-balanced in many areas. , V ,-15,4 ,i..,,-.cm EQ ffqfjff? , ., lf ,-41--5' ' 'v' . ,.'. ,',3: ' g 4 .al 1 Y N 'gl Carl Thompson Jerry Prouty

SOII Con Robin P: I-a 5 -Q Vi 21 Q VJ Hugh Sauerwein Dan Con Robinson is Multnomah's voice on Dr. John Mitchell's daily radio program. Responsible for preparing the program each day, Robinson combines the best from Multnomah's student music with a short appeal for student scholarship funds, a reminder about an upcoming concert, or an invitation to Multnomah's evening school classes, then turns the mike over to Dr. Mitchell. Fall semester, Robinson passed on some of his knowledge to students in a brand-new, two-hour class called Radio Production. Hugh Salisbury, the hitchhiker evangelist, is also the Francis Schaeffer of MSB. His suit, vest, and long side burns make him look something out of a Dickens novel, You might even describe him as up town style. In contrast to his clothes, he conducts his classes informally and gets into many dis- cussions. His sideline hobby is picking up hitchhikers and witnessing to them, or leading gas station attendants to the Lord. Witnessing is a way of life to him. To be with Mr. Salisbury is to get a feel of his love for people and the need of their souls. A tennis Hpron, he was named the winner of the first annual MSB faculty tennis match. lf asked to describe Mr. Sauerwein most people would describe him as the shy, quiet man on campus. He's gentle. A gentle man with a lion heart. He leaves you with an im- pression that you've been with a man of God. He comes fresh from his two-acre farm each morning to instruct his students in the Word. He's concerned that his students under- stand the message that he is presenting. Sauerwein loves to keep his audience spellbound as he tells of the Great Banquet in the sky. His hobby is studying Revela- tion. A verse that really describes Sauerwein, said one student, is James 1:19- . . . slow to anger. He never loses his cool! is Jerry Prouty Jerry Prouiy . Carl Thompson
