IK Story by Brittney Webster

For years, all classes have taken place in the Harold E. Cooper Complex. However, that changed with the fall of 2012. Monday, Aug. 20 some classes were held in the David T. Watkins academic building. The 38,000 square foot building is the first project in Vision 2020:A Miracle in the Making. Vision 2020 is a plan to complete 10 major projects in the next 10 years to accommodate an enrollment of

projectors. Most teachers and students enjoy this new space though there have been some funny happenings in the past few months. "The first Saturday morning after moving into the new buildingIwas doing work in my office andIgot up to leave for a moment.Iforgot my wallet on my desk, which contained my ID card andIcouldn't get back into the my office because the door to the Bible department had 2,020 students. locked behind me.

"Being a part of homecoming court was a real treat, and it was such an honor to share that moment of my senior year with my

"Just getting to be on the court was a great experience and the most exciting moment from homecoming for me," said Whillock. Only one person could end up being named queen and that Brandy Box. "All of my fellow Homecoming court ladies were women of character and worthy of winning queen," said Lynch. The reaction from "Queen Brandy" showed her feelings. "I am more than excited to be CBC's

During the first week of July 2012, Grapevine, Texas, was home to Sold Out And Radical (SOAR), the largest youth confer ence in the Baptist Missionary Association. SOAR set up shop in the Gaylord Texan Hotel with the theme, "White Fields." This theme comes from the words of Jesus

found in John 4 when He gives a sense of urgency to spread the gospel to the world through His disciples. Although SOAR had a new theme and a different location than before, it also hosted some familiar faces. Returning from a

few years ago, Aaron Williams of Little Rock, former lead singer of Solace Found, lead the students in worship before and during each session.

Other guests included Joe Castillo, sand artist and finalist

in "America's Got Talent;" Jordan Henderson, Christian rapper; the Panic Squad, a comedy group, and Lincoln Brewster, musician for such songs such as "Everlasting God" and "Today is the Day." Shawn Hammontree, director of student rninistries of Antioch

Baptist Church, hosted SOAR 2012. Keynote speaker was Todd West, pastor of Oasis Church in Litde Rock.

Fields Story by Devin Diguilio

SOAR also had a backbone of volunteers and workers that

helped with the set up and break down of the entire conference. Michael Mayo, CBC advancement officer, and his wife, Lacie, lead CBC students helping with SOAR.

Members of the CBC team included sophomores Haley Hideout and Devin DiGuUio; juniors Stephen Dominquez and Charlie Wagner, and alumni Kassi Nelson. Other representatives of CBC attending were admissions officers Jonathan Wilson and Thomas Mobly, and public relations officer Corey Shelman primarily worked the recruitment and informational booth.

Mobly said the recruiting of students during SOAR was a success. "We had a lot of people get excited about CBC," he said. "We were seeing people wearing T like CBC shirts all week long."

Junior David McEuen thought SOAR was effective from a youth worker's perspective.

"I think it allows the students to see how they can worship and let go," he said. "It teaches the students that there is more to wor

ship than what they know."

Story by: Brittney Webster During Mustangs Under Development week, freshmen transform from mere Ponies to Mustangs and, in turn, officially join the rest of the student body. The 2012 MUD week began with movein day on Monday, Aug. 13. Students flooded onto campus between 9 a.m. and 3 p.m. where Student Orientation Staff members were decked-out in bright yellow T-shirts while helping the students with their luggage. The MUD week kick-off was at 5 p.m. in the Dining Hall. Tuesday began with a welcome meeting and was followed by a merchant fair, a tour of Conway, dinner with President Terry Kimbrow and a night of karaoke. Activities continued early Wednesday moming with a run/walk and were num bered throughout the day, including a luau-themed dinner in the cafeteria and the showing of"Captain America."

Thursday, students played Family Feud in the Mabee Student Services Complex while leaming about the Career Services department, cooled-off at Aquamania with blow-up slides and then attended a Hillbilly Dinner Party. Later that night, a game of campus-wide Capture the Flag began.

"Capture the Flag was my favorite MUD week event because it was so exciting and I liked it when the people were running around in the rain," freshman Yoyo Cho said. After a week full of development events, soeials and team challenges, Friday dawned. It was the night that many ofthe Ponies had been anticipating: MUD night. The Ponies faced a number of obstacles

and eventually had to coast down a mudslide in order to gain the privilege of wearing CBC blue. After many muddy Mustangs received "1 survived MUD week" T-shirts, they were treated to a blue party featuring blue punch, blue cupcakes and even blue cheese dip. "The relay race was my favorite MUD week event because it was the most interactive," freshman Angela Stoker said. Others, like freshman Abbey Holley, simply enjoyed spending the week getting to know students and the campus. "I learned how friendly everyone is and how close-knit the campus is," she said.

However, due to rain, the tailgating event had to be moved into the Childers Dining Hall instead. There, students enjoyed food and drinks that were provided by the Student Activities Board.

Organizations Romans 5:8 "But God demonstrates His own love for us in this:

While we were still sinners, Christ died for us." Often times in the mornings, I tend to pray the same prayer over and over "God, use me today for your honor and Glory." But one evening, I was reflecting on my day to see how God had used me and I saw no evidence of truly getting beside myself and taking advantage of an oppor tunity I may have had to share the gospel with someone. My prayer was that God would use me, but I let myself hinder Him from doing so. In Luke 9: 23-25, Christ says to his disciples,"If anyone would come after Me, let him deny himself and take up his cross daily and follow Me. For whoever would save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his live for My sake will save it. For what does it profit a man if he gains the whole world and loses or forfeits himself?" Many times we pray that prayer that I mentioned, but we do not truly under stand the reasons why we must deny ourselves to follow Him. When reflecting on our day, we notice that some of the reasons we may not be sharing the Gospel is because offear of not knowing enough, rejection, shyness, approaching others with preconceived notions or unrepentant sin in our lives and many more things. As you can see, these are some of the things that would hinder the Holy Spirit from using us, and for these reasons we must truly deny ourselves daily take up our cross and follow Him. God calls us in Romans 12:1 to "present our lives as a living sacrifice..."

As a sacrifice, we are to give up all things, including ourselves, because it is not about us in the first place. It is all about the Glory of God."For whoever would

save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for My sake will gain it. For what does it profit a man if he gains the whole world and loses or forfeits himself?" When we truly deny ourselves, it is for Christ's sake. Not for our gain. So I challenge you to go out into the world, and forget about yourself, put all your fears to the side and let God use you for His Glory. Do all this in humility, not worrying if anyone knows who you are or what you're doing for God. Do as Paul Washer says, "Go and die for the Gospel so that the only ones who know you are God, and those in hell who despise you for preaching the Gospel." -Jacob Robinson,Junior Organizations 037

Story by Brittney Webster Believe it or not, all of the events that are hosted on

campus are organized by one organization and one alone: the Student Activities Board.

In the past, SAB was known as CAB or Campus Activi ties Board. This year, it is composed offour student life leaders, approximately 20 members of the student body, director of stu dent life Sarah Headley, and student activities assistant director Morgan Middleton.

According to Headley, the purpose of SAB is to provide activities, events and fellowship opportunities for CBC students. It is safe to say that SAB does just that. Many events are hosted on campus for students to relish and enjoy. These get-togethers include karaoke nights, movie nights, hiking adventures, coffee houses and Mustang Madness. There are events to celebrate holidays, like campus-wide Christ mas and Valentine's Day parties. During Finals Week, SAB recmits a group of sponsors to provide students with free tasty treats each night. Most of the above are CBC norms that SAB hosts. How

ever, this year, Middleton wanted to mix things up a bit. Since obtaining her position in August, she has created "Grab a 038 SAB

Date Night," an event where students invite a person of their choice. Middleton has worked hard to make standard campus events more exciting. "1 want to increase campus activities and draw in a diverse

demographic with the hopes of increasing the students' love for campus all while glorifying Christ," Middleton said.

Yet, Middleton is not the only one who is working hard to get stu dents involved on campus. Headley also loves coordinating SAB events. "1 know that when 1 was in college, the best memories 1 have are ofthe student and educational activities that 1 participated in," Headley said. "1 like being a part ofthat and sharing it with CBC students."

Better yet, students enjoy being a part of SAB,too.

"I like knowing about events in advance and being able to plan them," sophomore Devin DiGuilio said. Others, like freshman Cassandra Hawk,joined SAB to get more involved on campus. "1 enjoy meeting new people and making friends with other SAB members," she said.

Compassionate

Service As part of its focus of"Service Above Self," CBC's Rotaract club brought awareness of human trafficking to Conway by sponsor ing the showing of a film,"Nefarious." Students from all over the city attended the January film showing at New Life Church about the pain and suffering over 27 million people are experiencing due to human trafficking. Rachel Waymire, sponsor of CBC Rotoract, assisted in the event. Paula Verser Bean, an

Alumni, helped Waymire and Rota ract get in contact with PATH,Truckers Against Trafficking, and Not For Sale, all organizations that also assist with assistance for those that are trafficked.

Following the film, attendees broke into small groups with student leaders from the Rotoract club and the Antioch Baptist Church NOW leading the discussion in each group.

These groups helped students relate

what they had seen to real life, and how they could help. "We really want this event to be a springboard for people in the community to become more aware and know how to get involved," Waymire said.\ Rotaract is a Rotary International sponsored service club that is either university or community based. This was the second year Rotaract was active on the CBC campus.

Creating a radio station as diverse as the student body seemed like something that couldn't happen, but Mustang Radio has been a reality for two years. The satellite station got its start in 2011, but this year Mustang Radio grew into more than recorded clips of talking and a limited number of songs. Students listened to the station, gave feedback, and Mustang Radio truly became a part of eampus, according to senior Jay Sawrie, station manager. With a set number of shows scattered throughout the week, at any given time

listeners could hear DJs discuss sports, specific music genres, theology, and other perti nent issues. For Sawrie, the accomplishments provided by new equipment were the most memorable parts of the year.

"Getting our new equipment in was a big deal for me,just because... it felt like we had finally arrived," he said. The staff also enjoyed moving the station from a tempo rary office into a dedicated radio room that included an On-Air light. "I guess really the whole move from the closet into the new office was great, and then if you include the equipment in that, we eould look like professionals when people

"One of the most difficult things is waking up for the Jay's show, at 8 a.m. on

Monday, Wednesday and Fridays. Sometimes 1 don't get done producing a show until 11:30 the night before, so it's definitely a challenge," she said. Hand says the experience worth it. Her favorite part of the experience this year was getting to hear all of the shows. Mustang Radio also began broadcasting live games. Starting out with basket ball, the radio station broadcasted the games to afford parents, students and faculty who couldn't attend the game a chance to hear a broadcast of the basketball games.

People Romans 10:13 'For, everyone who calls on the name ofthe Lord will be saved." Isn't that amazing? Everyone who sincerely calls on Jesus Christ will receive his gift of grace. It does not matter what kind of person you are. Christ came for the

Jew and the Greek, the Pharisee and the leper, the rich and the poor, the "righteous" and the unrighteous. God sent His Son for everyone and anyone who accepts Christ will become a child of God.

Saving faith is something unique to Christianity. Other religions claim that the way to God or a decent position in the afterlife can only be through good works. Many people think that faith alone is too simple and the only way that we can redeem ourselves from the evil we have done is to outweigh our evil with good when de facto there is no man that can even remotely achieve that goal. In the time of the Old Testament, 1 find it silly that the people's view of the coming Messiah was a man that would be sent by God, a man that would still be subject to sin. Who would have thought that God would wrap Himself in the flesh and come as the Christ to redeem us of our sins Himself? God is the only one who could live a sinless life and take on all of our sins so that we could be declared righteous by Him. All that God asks of us is that we believe in Him. It is as simple as that. Unfortunately, not everyone will accept Christ through His gift of grace and there are many that have not and may not even hear the good news. It is important that those who are Christian not only stop at Romans 10:13 but continue to follow what comes next in the following verses. It is our job as followers of Christ to share the redemptive story to those who have yet to receive the Gospel and to those who are deceived by the belief of salvation by works. Even the thief next to Jesus on the cross had no more time for good works, yet called on Christ right then and there and was saved. All God requires of us is to trust Him with our hearts and we can be saved!

Academics Romans 10:9

"that if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from

the dead, you will be saved" Romans 10:9 is certainly one of the most relieving verses to nonbelievers, and reassuring verses to professing Christians. As a nonbeliever, this verse says that no matter your past, no matter how dark and sinful you think you are, our God is able and willing to forgive. Quite simply, all it takes is a simple proclamation and change of heart to be placed eternally into the kingdom of God. As a saved follower of Christ, this verse gives us reassurance of our faith and just how simple it really is. The farther and deeper we dig into the Bible, the more complex our view of Christianity becomes. While this is natural, it is imperative to remember that moment where we experienced salvation, and just how small and childlike we were in our walk.

It is incredibly easy to get bogged down in our lives. Between schoolwork, social activities, and in fact even ministry opportunities, it is easy to neglect our Christian walk in order to get done what everyone is expecting of us. Even when this happens, I love going back to this verse and remembering that no matter what I do, I am a saved child of God ~ and that rests in nothing more than my faith in him. Noth ing I can do will ever change that.

Story By: YoYo Cho

This year, the CBC Choir and Singers went to the windy city, Chicago, for the annual choir tour during spring break, March 15-20. Everyone had a wonderful time with one another.

During this tour, we sang at Kewanee Mission ary Baptist Church in New Madrid, Mo., and Jacob's Well in Piano, 111. We were all thankful to be there and

amazed by how God is working in these two churches. We got to visit the St. Louis Gateway Arch and Museum and watched "1 Love Lucy" in the Broadway Playhouse. We also got to eat at some famous local restaurants: The Old Spaghetti Factory, Gino's Pizzeria, Ld Debevie's and Grand Lux Cafe. Everybody loved it. On our sightseeing days, the choir was divided to different groups to see the things we were interested in about Chicago. We visited a lot of places such as the Cloud Gate (Chicago bean), the Willis Tower, the Shedd Aquarium, the Field Museum,the Art Institute of Chicago, and some even had a tour in a Chicago theater. Because this was the first time for most of us to

be there, we tried our best to go to as many attractions as possible. 1 believe everyone enjoyed being in Chi078 Music

cago very much even though the weather was cold and rainy for most of the time. Through this choir tour, it strengthened us in our old friendships and built new ones with our choir buddies. We got to know about our friends and even our choir director, Jim Turner, better. It was also a great time for us to relax and just have fun. One of the special moments in this trip was

when everybody started singing different songs loudly on the bus together. It was so cool to see how music did really draw us together. We thank God so much for this amazing Choir Tour 2013 and we are excited to see what God has for

us next year!

^rml^AOlO Story by BritrfT^

According to Fyodor Dostoyevsky,"Taking a new step, uttering a new word, is what people fear most." Yet, the English department at CBC is doing just that: taking new steps. This year, the 2012-2013 school year, is the first time that a Latin elass has ever been offered on campus. Henry Smiley, Literature and Language Arts Department Chair, said that Michelle Sadlowski, Assistant Professor of Foreign Languages, expressed interest in Latin last year when she became a CBC professor. Sadlowski, a linguist and frequent world-trav eler, claims that Latin is her favorite subject to teach and that it is important for students to know as well. "Latin still lives in many languages in the world. It improves student's english and math cognitive skills," Sadlowski said.

She has loved teaching the program and hopes that in the future more foreign language opportunities will be available for students.

Her pupils, such as senior jay Sawrie and junior Rebekah Simpson, have enjoyed Latin as well. "It was hard and grueling, but that made it fun. I would recommend it to students who are ready to work-hard," Sawrie said.

However, language classes aren't the only things under construction in the English department. In the fall of 2013, a BAin English will be offered at CBC for the first time ever.

Though Smiley says that it has been in the planning stages for years, this degree was recently approved by the Academie Affairs Committee and the Board of Trustees. Smiley hopes that recruiting for this degree program will begin soon and that it will draw-in new students.

Students who obtain this degree will be able to pursue careers in teaehing, public relations and advertising. "A lot of employers are looking for people with critical thinking skills," Smiley said. He is rather excited about the major and looks forward to offering a whole new slew of literature classes. "Literature really is my great love," he said. In order for a new degree to be offered, however, the English department will be gaining a new staff member, its seeond in the past two years. Smiley mentioned that this process will begin soon and he is hoping to find someone who will work well with current staff members.

"I am blessed to have extraordinary people working with me in this department," he said.

098 Devotion

Sports Romans 10:10 "For with the heart one believes unto

righteousness, and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation." Sin. Failure. Death. These are three words that describe the life of a

human being. Since the fall of man, we have a sin seed that is passed down and permanently engrained in our being. It doesn't matter how hard we try, we, in ourselves, cannot do enough good to justify our wrongs. Sin cannot enter into the presence of God and the problem lies in the heart. "With the heart one believes unto righteousness." This is the key. With out a willingness and want to be of and like Christ, to fully submit your very being, we cannot come to a relationship with Him. Our eternity cannot be spent with Him without first believing with our whole selves, with our hearts.

I have heard it said that your words bind you, whether it's legally or just to a promise. What this verse means to me is a simple truth that holds a lot of truth. With our mouths, confession is made unto salvation.

With our hearts we believe and with our mouths we

confess to others outwardly of a change that occurred inwardly.

The wrestlers will get another offseason to get stronger, and faster. The team also gained valuable experience from being a younger team that had to grow

have the right amount of focus they will be a dangerous team next year.

Lady Mustangs at hard work in Softball season

A strong work ethic, a string of victo

ries and a preseason poll all pointed to the Lady Mustangs being the frontrunners to win the MCAC

Softball Championship. In 2012, the Lady Mustangs captured the Midlands Collegiate Athletic Conference Softball Championship and ended the season with an overall record of 53-8„ including 13 wins and one loss from their participation in the MCAC. It marked the third consecutive year the Lady Mustangs won 50 games in a season and in the process, garnered the team a trip to that year's NAIA National Championship games. In 2013, the Lady Mustangs started the season with two consecutive victories over

Henderson State's Lady Reddies team with the second victory an eight-point shutout. In the weeks that followed, they accrued victories over teams representing the states of Texas, Louisiana and West Virginia. Twelve days after their victories against

Henderson, a preseason poll conducted by the MCAC listed the Lady Mustangs as the favorite to win the conference championship, surpassing Southern Christian University and Bellevue Univer sity in the final vote. With steep competition in the form of 120 Softball

S'ioiy Bj: Madelaine Works

Tt was a story four years in the making. Fresh-eyed freshmen stood the test of time by surviving finals, classes, social problems and everything else that goes along with being a college student. On Saturday, May 11, the class of 2013 walked across the stage and finished the story that had begun when they became CBC Mustangs. For the seniors, it was a bit tersweet moment as President Terry Kimbrow shook their hands for one last time, then handed them their diplomas. For Jay Sawrie, the ceremony marked the transition from college kid to working adult. "Fm getting to start my ministry right out of the gate. There are a lot of opportunities now even though 1 am young," he said. "1 might even write a book. 1 would like to do that."

Others looked at the day as a milestone, not only as a huge accomplishment, but because they were the first to accomplish it. Twins Nikki and Mandy Dickson, who were adopted from Honduras, were the first people in their birth family to attend and graduate from college. With this accomplishment eomes great potential for the young women. "I'm exeited about where God will lead me, and

ready to help as many people as 1 can," Mandy said. Nikki and Mandy's mother, Beverly Dickson, described how it felt to see her daughters graduate. "I am very relieved and very proud. They have been dedicated to school and it is good to see it pay off for them," she said.

Along with the exeitement of graduating came the anticipation of what is next for the graduates. Christian Bigansi said he was most excited about "getting married and the unkown." The graduation marked the largest number of graduates - 120 - in CBC history. The event included other "firsts": an outdoor ceremony held in the parking lot of the Watkins Academic Building, the playing of bagpipes as the ceremony began and ended, and a line-up of regalia-clad faculty members outside of the Ratliff Bell Tower as the ceremony ended. Graduates walked through the bell tower and the line-up to faculty applause and final hugs to mark the end of the event.

As the story came to a close and the last student, Brittney Webster, walked across the stage, CBC said good bye to the class of2013. Yet for these graduates, life was just saying hello. Graduation 123
