SOCIAL PHASE Upon arriving at North Greenville this year, the Freshmen immediately found themselves in an atmosphere of warm friendship. The Student Government and Baptist Student Union Execu- tive Councils arrived at school early to plan events to help the new students adjust to campus life. During the orientation period all Freshmen attended parties and singspirations, toured the campus, and enjoyed general fellowship. Through these various activities the new stu- dents became better acquainted with the cam- pus and with one another. During the year every student has been able to enjoy fellowship with others through a broad range of campus functions. This year students have enjoyed a greater social life through the use of a new student center with such facilities as the canteen, two game rooms, a conference room, and a study lounge. The social life has been projected each day also as the students attend classes. Before and after classes the congested halls, the crowded canteen, and the many students who are plan- ning programs suggest that each student is seek- ing an understanding of his fellow students.

SPIRITUAL PHASE I will life up mine eyes unto the hills, from whence cometh my helpf, In the ,light that is shed by North Greenville, the spiritual phase takes the form of a ray-a ray which shines brightly upon each North Greenville student and guides in the many responsibilities of all who are a part of the school. With its picturesque setting in the moun- tains, North Greenville appeals to all who see and feel its grandeur. This magnificence is one that consists of a Christian atmosphere which is maintained each year by new students. These students make up the Baptist Student Union and the organizations such as the Volunteer Band, the Ministerial Band, and the Young Women's Auxiliary. At North Greenville students are able to strengthen their religious life through the college, church, morning devotions, chapel programs, and vespers. Each year Christian Focus Week is held. This year it was from October 3-October S. Visiting speakers were invited to lead chapel services, dormitory discussions, and seminars, at which students learned more about such things as doc- trine, attitude, and behavior. e E E E
