Prologue

Infinity goes on forever.Infinity isa concept thatis only fullyunderstood by God.Infinityis the indefinable forever, the unreachable, the ungraspable. It has no beginning and no end.

Itisa sunset that rotates around the earth.It isthe moon and theplanetsbeyond.Infinityis acontinuum of a continuum. Infinity is excitement of excitement, dreams ofdreams,aspirations built ofaspirations.It is beyond the limitsofthehuman mind,beyond the reach of the human hand. It is incomprehensible.

Jelly doughnuts are all of those things we have within the grasp of our five senses. It is wrinkled sheets, laundry soap, a box of Bounce. It is food and rich aromas, notebook paper and Cross pens.It is unread textbooks and sloppy notes, long lines and friendly people. Itisa watch and ticking clock, orange carpet and red tile. It is a shirt needing ironingand a stained tie. Itis a broken heel and torn skirt.

We livewith both.We grasp at infinity and deal with the jelly doughnuts.

In 1989,we defined the parameters of our lives:Infinity and Jelly Doughnuts.

Student Life

Infinity isan all-nighter. Infinity isasking her out. Infinity isgoing out with him. Infinity isindefinable, the bus schedule and the incomprehensible. It is the new stadium and new senior dorms. It is the hope of mail and dream of a care package. Infinity is every aspect ofstudent lifethat remains beyond our reach. It isthe intangible.

The ring of the alarm in the morning. Waiting in another line. Finding a seat in chapel. These are the jellydoughnuts ofLiberty life. They are the cold showersand tons oftexts. They include the term papers and

the paper work. They are the campus movies and the people attending.They are the Liberty sweatshirts and measle shots.Jelly doughnuts are bus rides and flat tires. They are the nights of basketball games and Lateskates.

We lived with both.In198889,we grasped at infinity and consumed ourjellydoughnuts.

Finally, 'A Place oftheirOwn'

Th e streetlightsshown down on the water fountain while video games beeped in the background. There was a buzz of students talking, andthe aroma ofpizza filled the air.

At last,students had a place oftheir own The student union was no longer a dream. Butareality.

The new facility opened January 22 after a dedication service on Liberty Mountain The grand opening party coincided with the Superbowl where the San Francisco '49ers claimed victory in a gam e that proved asexciting as the new building. The student

union was named "David's Place."The building was named by Mrs AuthurDeMoss, who donated $500,000 torenovate the former physical plant warehouse Her son,David DeMoss,waskilled inanauto accident three years ago during a break from hisstudies at Liberty She wanted people to remember David's fun-loving personality in a way that he would have appreciated A studentunion was the perfect idea,she felt.

Marriott Food Services donated an additional $50,000 toopen upacafefor the students.The money also helped provide furnishing forthetwoeatingfacilities

Singing in the Rain

Hhe sits in his room, watching the rain streak down the window He has a cup ofsteaming coffee in one hand,a magazine in the other. He loves the rain.

She sits in the hump on her bed, watching the rain pelt the ground outside.Her tennisracket and a can oftennisballsareat the foot ofthe bed. Her color isa biton the red side.She hates the rain;italways ruins her plans

They, who always seem to glow, stroll around the campus under thecanopy oftheirred umbrella.They've decided to make the best of the rainy afternoon

A young lady runs across the parking lot. She has her biology book over her head, a shield from the rain The weatherman said sunny and in the low-60's today, she tells herself as she splashes through a puddle.

A young man glances out the window ofthelibrary A book of gothic art lies open in front of him. He heard it was going tobe sunny He decided toread ahead inhisartappreciation classuntil the rain passed

A body flops over in bed under a heap of thick quilts. "A rainy day's the best time for a nap," a voice mumbles from the pile.

Lynchburg's several rains included theexpected,cool rainof the summer (usually welcome), the sudden downpours (not welcome) and cold bone-chilling rains of winter (definitely not welcome)

"Sometimes the rain was ok; but I never liked it,especially when it was cold,"said Christian Nicholos,New York native. "1 prefer snow to the wet,cold Lynchburg rains."

"Lynchburg has the wierdest rain,"saysJody Barker."I never know when and if it's going to rain, even if 1 listen to the weatherman Once Iget inside,though, Ienjoy the rain more." Rain.Lynchburg certainly got its share.Much ofit was sudden or untimely, earning the City of Seven Hills its nickname, "Drenchburg."

Exposed to the Elements

Ou r livesconsist of a variety of different elements — elements beyond the oriental concept offire, water and air;elements beyond the ones we see in our natural world,likerain,the sun and snow

No, the elements ofour livesare much more complex — so complex, they defy complete human understanding We, to bring order to our lives, must break down each element and discover what elements itin turn iscomposed of

And so we come to the age-old element of fashion, of style It has been around since Adam and Eve's God-designed fig leaves. To understand it, we must examine what elements comprised fashion for 1988/89 astheyconstantly changed Color was an element of fashion However stable it may seem, itunderwent many changes A new colormadeits way intosome ofour wardrobes, acid yellow. The color was bold and bright and popular among a young and mobile crowd It was joined by a host of other acid-type colors, none proving aspopular.

Traditional white shirtsreceived a new wave of color as the stripe invaded. Stripes, ranging in width from very fine to an inch, were painted in a great many colors.

ors were most evident,replacing the primary colors of recent fashion history.

Another important element of fashion was texture Cotton made a big come-back during the year from itspolyester beating ofthe'70s. The cool, comfortablematerial found itsway into every conceivable item of clothing.

The texture to discover in 1988/89 was rayon. This material went beyond words, sporting a comfortable, soft feel and a silky surface It also held the quality of "draping," a stylish way of hanging clothes on one's body. Rayon was combined with several other materialstoform a variety oftextures.

Wool also was a popular texture

Each of its many forms had its own function. Pure wool was retained for sweaters, pants and skirts. Wool, combined with cotton, polyesterorsilk, generally was reserved for coats and sports jackets The handknit sweater was always made ofwool as itgained popularity.

Liberty sees many ofthe elements offashion in every aspect of student life.

Pastels stood their ground, established asacolorofthelate1980's. Once confined to the female side of fashion, pastels in 1988/89 saw a slight move into the male sideaswell.In trade, women continued to borrow the dark hues oftraditional men's fashion for their business-like approach Dark, muted colors proved popular in the fall Rich browns, blues and blacks created subdued clothing and accessories forthe fashion-conscious.This group also included the mustard yellow, khaki,dark green and burnt orange colors.Men's ties and women's skirts were where these col-

Pattern was a primary element in style. It was not enough to have clothing in the right color and the right texture It had to have the right pattern. Patterns like houndstooth and tweed were easily identified. More complex patterns, repeated squares, emblems and unusual lines proved more difficult The key to pattern over the year was individuality and uniqueness.

Patterns encompasssed the simple and complex.The stripe,traditional plaid and emblem were alsocontenders inthe battle. The simplest of all was no pattern at all We had three basic elements offashion and style. There may have been more. Each person carefully considered theelements ofstyleand ranked them inanorder ofindividual importance Style was apersonaldecision asthe '80sslowed toaclose and we looked toward a new decade.

Steve Schutt inschool dress, Les Smith and Daneen Bigelow in athletic attire, Cassandra Gombis in casual dress and Debbie McClay, alsoinschool dress, were among the 5000 fashion-concious students at LU.

The interracial dating controversy wasn't An Issue of Black and White

Controversy, in itsmany shapes and forms, isnothing that anyone asks for or desires. However, it's a part of every one'slife.

People at Liberty were no different and the year had its share ofcontroversy The student newspaper argued both sidesofthe issuesduring the year One ofthe year's prominent campus issues was that of interracial dating Students' feelings varied; some students strongly opposed it, even admitting they were prejudiced against anyone who was not of the same race.

"The question iswrong," said a sophomore from Ohio. "So isthe act. I feel that people who are interracially dating are missing out on what God has for them."

On the other side were individuals who did not feelinterracially dating was wrong "I don't know why everyone is so upset,"said a white student She said she had many black friends and would not have a problem dating one.

The majority ofstudents fellinto a gray area between the two extremes. A senior finance major,said, "I don't know if it is wrong or not For me,it is I won't condemn those who choose to date interracially It is their decision."

Dr Harold Willmington, Bible professor,addressed his New Testament class on the issue Many students did not know which side was right or wrong

"I am going to tell you what the Bible says about interracial dating in the next minute," he said The class of more than 500 students came to a dead silence Willmington also remained silent for one minute.

Then he said,"The Bible says nothing about interracial dating Itis a gray area of the Christian life."

He continued by giving basic principles to guide students in gray areas of their lives Gray areas he defined as those things that are morally indifferent and not addressed by the Bible,the authority of the Christian faith

One: Will the activity, interracial dating in this case,cause a weaker brother to stumble or fallin hisChristian life?This isPaul's principle of letting love voluntarily regulate one's personal liberty

Two: Will the activity, not morally wrong in itself,lead you into sin?

Three: Will the activity hinder your individual ministry to others? Will the people who see you on a regular basis Christians or not,respect the stand that you have made for Christ?

To Everything There is a Season

Seasons. We awaitthesummer forourvacations, the fallfordrivestothe country,thewinterfor our Christmas break and the spring for our annual cleaning.

Liberty students see them allduring the course of theyear. The summer was infullswing when students arrived in August.The ravine was green and thefoliage was abundant The drive was lined with full, green trees. The AC's g were switched to high and ice was a necessity The Lynchburg area fared well despite the nation's drought, surprising those who traveled from midwestern states

Soon, the cold moved in. The air took on a crispness The green leaves turned to brilliant reds and yellows and the traditional browns The area's gentle mountains took on a new look for the fall.The Blue Ridge Parkway became the hot spot for color tours. The week justbefore Homecoming weekend was the peak week in 1988 and studentstook every chance they had to be outside.

thegloriesofthe snow.The rain pelted the earth ina seemingly endless stream of showers Students carried umbrellas regardless, knowing that rain could be just around the corner Heaters hummed constantly throughout the season Students complained of how the cold wetness seemed to cut straight to the bone.

But winter brought Christmas break and time to travel home — tothe snow ofthe north or sun ofthe south.

As theairgently began towarm and thecoldrain lightened, we knew spring was here The air carried the fresh smell of spring White and yellow daffodils sprang up everywhere. Following them,the pink dogwoods sprinkled the Virginia countrysides. Trees budded and opened intofresh new leaves. Grasstook on a brilliant green.

The season came full circle as we entered the summer months and made the journey home Although we did not always stop to admire the season, we were constantly aware of its presence and its changing For some,theseasons were ordinary — the same as they have always been.For others,they had allof a neighborhood circus calliope.

A Place Of Their Own

Thank you, thank you, thank you," was allstudents could say tothe anonymous donor of the new student union center

Mauve and mint green colors complimented with brass gave a contemporary style tothecenter Plenty offoliage gave character to the theme, "Bringing the OutdoorsIn."

Students enjoyed a fast-food kitchen, video games, a quiet lounge,T.V. rooms and a 250-500 seat multi-purpose room to be used for indoor sports, clubs, plays, concerts and film showings.

The Marriott Corporation donated $50,000 in December to the SU to purchase equipment forthefood facility.

SGA President Scott Brown leda drive to raise $25,000 for extra things needed in the student center. Students gave addressesoffamilyandfriendswhowould be interested insubscribing orre-subscribing to a variety of magazines through the Christian School Home Reading program Also, 10,000 mail-outs were sent toalumni The effort only netted $9,000 by the end of the first semester and alternative fund-raising projects were considered for 1989

Brown said,"We were even able to get

the faculty andstaffinvolved."Outofeverydollar, 40centswent tothefurnishings fund

Bev Buffington, directorofStudentActivities, said, "It'staken years forstudents at Liberty University to get a placeof their own, but they've finally gotit! The new Student Center has added a totally new dimension to the Student Activities Program. Itprovidesstudentswith a place to go tosocialize,relax and play."

Construction on the SU buildingwas slower than hoped because ofother demands on the construction crew's timeand other ministry construction projects. The SU opened in January of 1989 for student use.

Random drug testing itwas a hot issue. At Liberty, it was a way oflife.

Liberty s Ultimate Test

Th e latest fashions show who's in and who's not.The latest clichesshow who's cooland who's not However, the latest thing to hit Liberty University willshow who's here and who's not

Mandatory drug testing hit around 2000 students this year — up to 200 perweek. Before the school year started,students were required tosign a waiver form consenting tothetests.No student was allowed to register before submitting the signed waiver

Imagine — you are a new student,and youreceive a call slip inyour mailbox You've beenselected asthenextsubjectofdrug testing! You have exactly 48 hours to respond toyour notice.If you failtomake an appointment with the Health Services,you may receive four reprimands, which is equivalent to a $15 fine.

You go toyour appointment a littlenervous, but acting as"cool"asyou possibly can.First, youfill

out a form explaining thetype ofdrugs,prescription and otherwise,you've used inthepast couple of months. You are given a private room and a container You sign and seal the sample toinsure that itisnot tampered with. Liberty chose notto have a monitored room — for the privacy ofthe individual student

Health Services checks the urine sample and sendsit outforfurthertesting Ifit shows apositive sign of drugs,a second test will be taken on the other part ofthesample.

Ifthe second test shows positive,a third test is run bygastroanalysis, themost expensivedrugtesting done.Itis a fool-prooftestand may beused as evidence incourt situations This test isneeded to confirm a positive test and toavoid accusing anyone falselyoftaking illegaldrugs Thegastroanalysis test can name the specific drug and the exact quantity ofitthat has been taken.

Dr. Greg Albers,who is in charge of the program, said the university hired the best testing company available

"Hopefully your testswillturnout negative, " he said,"and you'll be able to finish your year with success."

However, ifa student's drug test ispositive,he may be dismissed from school,depending on the severityofthesituation. Studentswillbe allowed to re-enroll in a following semester with the review board's permission Students who refuse to submit to the test will be dismissed.

Health Serviceshopes toeitherconnect students who test"positive"with a drug rehabilitation program or tohelp directly, inthecase ofprescription drug abuse

Liberty University led the nation among schools

enforcing random drug testing

"We are the first college in America to have such aprogram I hope thatotherswillfollow suit," stated Chancellor Jerry Falwell.He made theannouncement ofdrug testingduring chapelon April 22, 1988

PresidentA. PierreGuillermin added thatit was a wait-and-see situation for other schools toadopt the program

"Colleges want to see what legal ramifications the Liberty program has,"he said "If LU is successful, its program can be a model forother Christian and secular universities."

The drug-testing program got offto a late start thisyear.The firststudents tobe tested linedup in early October instead of early September, as planned The measlesepidemic caused thedelayby taking all of Health Service's time.

Testing on the Grape Vine

Rando m drug testing was welcomed by LU students Very few found itan invasion of privacy. They had nothing tohide fromthe administration. Rather,they applauded theuniversity'sstand tokeep drugs outofthe student body

Varsity basketball player Mark Tellechea said, "Idon'thave a problem with mandatory drugtesting Idon't usedrugs so Idon't have anything to worry about.Drug testing willclean up those who do usedrugsbycausingthem toeitherstopor leave school."

He saysthere arealways ways togetaround the testingand some people may have been lucky; but generally,he believes,itwaseffective.

LU student Jon Lane said,"I feel that atany institution, whether privateorpublic, youwillfind some form of illegal drug use.Drug testing isa reasonable way to keep the honest people honest

and to turn away those who would choose touse drugsillegally It willalsoshow thosewhoquestion Liberty's values what this institution really is about."

Sophomore JulieBaxter said, "Ithink thatit's a good idea because,hopefully,it will stop some of thedrug useoftheoneswhoarealreadyhere And, hopefully, it will deterdrug usersfrom coming here toschool."

Jimmy Bookstore also thought it was a good idea.His concern, however, wasthatthosewhoare selling drugs won't be affected "Ifthey are here and active,they will be safe from drug testingif they arenotusers.They willjust continue tohurt LU."

Most studentsfeelthatdrug testingis anasset to theuniversity. Those whodon't, didn'tstay around to complain aboutit

Awaiting Discovery

To some, Lynchburg was nothing more than a Wards Road traffic jam.To others,it was a cityfullof lifeand diversity — waiting to be discovered. To one of America's most revered founders, Thomas Jefferson, it was "the most interesting spot in thestate."

Beyond River Ridge Mall and TCBY there was a vast array of places tovisit, things to experience. From the heart of downtown to visiting other local college campuses, something alwaysawaited those who had thecuriosity toseek and explore.

History buffs toured such places as Point of Honor,an early nineteenth centuryhome builtby Dr.George Cabell, the doctor of Patrick Henry Point of Honor wasnamed afterthenumber ofpistol duels fought on its lawn. Thomas Jefferson's summer home,Poplar Forest,was builtin 1806 and was opened to the public only recently during its renovation. The Confederate Graveyard downtown contains 2,000 graves.Itisa remnant of theCivil War, which ended at Appomattox, 20 miles from Lynchburg

Fort Earlyalsoremainsasareminderof the Civil War It is where Confederate GeneralJubal Early met theUnion Forces under the control of General Hunter. Down the road sits the Quaker Meeting House, where city founder John Lynch and his family worshiped.

Lynchburg was the home ofblackpoet, Anne Spencer. Her home,studioand garden, located at 1313 Pierce St., were opened to the public after being restored by the Hillside Garden Club.

For students who enjoyed theoutdoors, Lynchburg offered an array of parks. Blackwater Creek Natural Area, located in the heart of Lynchburg,consisted of a trunk trail along Blackwater Creek, the Ruskin Freer Nature Preserve, a bikeway and the Blackwater Creek athletic area The trunk trail ws six miles in length. Peaksview Park offered tenniscourts, basketball courts, a jogging tail, baseball fields and plentyofopen space.Millerand Riverside parks were also of interest to students.

For the culturally oriented,the Lynchburg Symphony Orchestra, the Lynchburg Fine Arts Center and the Maier Museum of Art, located on the campus of Randolph-Macon Women's College, held events open to the public.The Jones Memorial Library, one ofVirginia's foremost genealogical libraries, was available to interested students.

Lynchburg

Continued from page 43 to interestedstudents.

Lynchburg offered a wide array of dining. T.C. Trotter's, located next to the Randolph-Macon campus, and G.T Brooks were favorite places for students when they had the money. Shakers and The Ground Round were also popular

If itwere ice cream or frozen yogurt, students headed for TCBY, Swensons or Billy Joe's The area also sported a wide varietyoffast-food spotslikeMcDonalds, Hardy's, Burger King and Wendy's Familystyledining was available atShoney's, Western Steer, Western Sizzlin', Bonanza, Golden Corral and Country Cookin', noted for itsall-you-can-eat salad bar.

Lynchburg alsosported a good number ofpizzaplaces Studentswere oftenfound atPizza Hut,Pizza Inn, Giovanni's Pizza or Sal's Pizza.Domino's and Little Caesar'stake-outs supplied students who had late-night hunger pains.

And then, there was just the city A walk downtown could prove both educational and enlightening.A drive through any of Lynchburg's Seven Hills could be enhanced by theJunior League ofLynchburg's brochures of self-guided tours.

Lynchburg, fascinatingand diverse, was rich inhistory, architectureand fun. And it all awaited curiousstudents.Those who took the time found a livingtextbookfull ofcolor.

Julie Harbot

'Not Your Typical Miss Liberty'

Alittle bitshy,but congenial Laid back and relaxed Pretty.This was Miss Liberty 1988,not that she'd ever describe herself in those terms.

"I'm not the typical Miss Liberty I've always thought about her as the glamor type," says Julie Harbot, of Williamston, Penn "I'm so down-to-earth Your typical home-grown, hometown type."

Glamor or not, the senior broadcast-journalism major was named Miss Liberty 1988 on the night ofOctober 21, 1988 The Rev.Jerry Falwell made theannouncement that brought the multi-purpose center to its feet

"I was so amazed," she says. "I didn't feel that I was even worthy to be in the pageant."

Once in, Harbot neverexpected to make it to the top ten However,thatdecision had been made before she even stepped onto the stage The top ten were selected on the basis of several eventsbeforethepageant, oneof which was an interview

Each of the 24 contestants was interviewed weeks before the pageant A selected group ofjudges asked questions,ranging from family life to career goals.All of the questions were based on information sheets the contestants completed in advance.

Julie was asked her plans.In the near future, they included graduation and her marriage to Mike Coker on July 1, 1988

The questionsalsodealtwiththe more distant future.

A question she remembers asked about her career goal — to be a television anchor person and her ethics The judges asked, "If your editor came to you and asked you to do a story that went against all of your morals and ethics,what would you do?"

Julie's response was that,in everything,the Lord comes first.

When the night ofthe pageant arrived,Julie spent some time with the Lord before the lightswent up."I spent an hour and a halfbefore the pageant by myself inmy room. God and Ispoke

during that time Isaid that Iwould glorify Him ineverythingI did."

Still,Julie was nervous about the pageant — not so much about being named Miss Liberty, but about making a mistake "I'm a klutz," she says.

She was especially worried about theopening ofthepageant. It featured a bright and flashy number,choreographed tothesong "Shine Down." She admits shedid make amistake, asshefeared. However,asthenightcame toaclose, thatwould notbewhatthe audience remembered about Miss Julie Harbot.

The five finalists lined up acrossthestage. ChancellorFalwell joined them, card in hand. Itcame down to Julieand Amy Hubbard.

When Amy was named first runner-up, Julie was left in the spotlight.

"When it was just me and Amy, Ireally believed that God wanted Amy to be Miss Liberty,"Juliesays As theannouncement was made,Julie'sface told the same story. At first, she looked blankly over at Amy, whose name wasjust called. And then, the realization of the words hither

She was Miss Liberty.

"I am very honored torepresent Liberty.It's an honor and a privilege for people to seeJesus in me."

As the year advanced, Julie, as Miss Liberty, represented LU in many ways One of those, Nov. 27,1988,was a Christmas parade However,thefestive occasion did not draw a festive day. The weather was cold and rainy;the sky,dreary

"I could have complained," Juliesaid. "But I wanted people toknow Ilovethe Lord.And, as I represent Liberty, I wanted them to know that every student here loves the Lord.

"I'm not always strong.Deep inside, beyond everything,I'm a child ofGod There are times Ihave to constantly draw on His strength.Iwant people to know that'sthe kind ofperson Iam."

A Pageant of Emotions

"They laugh with nervous giggles, talking with each other, complementing on how great everyone looks. They willbe glad when it's over

"They comb their hair over and over, tryingtogetit perfect, although convinced they never will They add one more stroke ofblush and then wipe it off, thinkingit's too much.

"Will it ever beover? their faces ask What ifItriporworsefall? theyask themselves. Thisis soexciting, they say. This is so scary, they say." Observations of a backstage bystander, 1988.

October 22, 1988.It wasa nightfilledwith emotions: fear,anticipation,humor, honor, nervousness andexcitement for both the participants and the audience.

The pageant, hosted by thecomedy duo ofSteven Hicks and Jerry Coheagan, was held in conjunction with the otheractivities ofHomecoming weekend It soughtto select another Liberty lady who best exemplifiestheChristian life and thestudent body The 24 contestants were selected by the senior class.A board of judges narrowed them toten

The tensemi-finalistsof1988wereJulie Harbot of Williamsport, PA;Kimberly Harris of Ovilla, TX; Lisa Holy ofMt Arlington, NJ; Amy Hubbard ofCharlotte, NC; Lara Leonard of Blountville, TN.

That was true of the Eleventh Annual Miss Liberty Pageant. The 24contestants, after going through interviews and weeks of preparations made itto the big night, A tearful Miss Liberty, Julie Harbot, waves to the audience after being crowned. A wide array of emotions was experienced by each contestant.

Susan Matherly of Danville, VA; Su Park of Sharon, MA; Julie Ann Schwaderer ofColumbus,OH; JustineThyret of Akron, NY; and Kathryn Tomlinson of Flower Mound, TX

The field was then reduced tofivefinalists. The finalist were allasked the same

question,individually,by hosts Hicks and Cohegan—"Describe yourself when you firstentered Liberty as a freshman Then go onto describe how you matured into the person you are tonight."The question was the finalcriterion on which thejudges based theirdecision.

Chancellor Jerry Falwellannounced the winners at the evening's climax.

Lisa Holy was fourth runner-up. Kimberly Harris wasthird runner-up Lara Leonard was ' second runner-up. Amy Hubbard was announced first-runner up and Julie Harbot, Miss Liberty 1988

To wear or not to wear, it was A Personal Decision

T o wear awatch It is apersonal decision Ifyouwanttobepunctual,reliable and responsible, you will.However, if you don'tcare about your place inourtimeoriented society, youwon't.

What kindofwatch? Itis yournextdecision and animportant one Sporty? Dressy? Formal? Casual? Relaxed?Whatisitgoingtosay aboutyou when you strapit toyourwrist?

Some students don't care what their watch looks likeorwhat it says about them. The importantfunctionis timeandthe ability tokeep it.

"I need to wear my watch or I'd lose my mind," senior Beth Basham says. "I need to know what time itis so I know

where I should be."

Others combine theaestheticqualitieswith thepractical.Knowing thetimeisnotasimportantasthefashionable aspectofthewatch

Jason Noble explains, "I wear a watch tokeep track ofthetime.I need onethatcan take a beating and look nice at the same time. "

Still, other students consider theirwatch as wardrobe. Fashion ranks overpracticility.

Senior Angie Allmond commented that she only wears her watch when itmatches her day's outfit "Itisa vital part of my wardrobe," she says Darcy Saricina agrees, "I wear my watch because it's partofmy wardrobe, I feel

poorly dressed without it—something's just missing."

The yearof 1988saw its fill ofall kindsof watches Popular time pieces includedreplicasofantique watches They were characterized by their square faces,Roman numerals and darkcolors.

The Swatch and close resemblances were popular. The idea was tohave a functional watch thatwasbold, expressive andcolorful. The watches were typicallyplasticandincorporated primary colors

Chapel also served as an opportunity to distribute information to the student body This was done through announcements and special chapel sessions sponsored by Student Government Association and class officers.

Crawford Lorritts spoke on Oct. 17, 1989.

Chapel announcements ranged from the routine tothe exciting. Students first learned here of the measles epidemic, football stadium, basketball field house, Student Union and random drug testing Announcements also gave students the chance to pray for each other as members ofthe student body, faculty and administration faced impossible odds. The student body prayed specifically for Steve Jones who was critically injured in an auto accident; Bethany Survant, infant daughter of Professor Mikie

"Surrender yourself to the Potter's hands," urgedspeakerAlHenson on Sept. 5.

Survant and his wife Sue, who was born two months premature and was not expected to live; and President A. Pierre Guillermin who suffered from a heart attack in December and underwent emergency bi-pass surgery.

Most importantly,chapel gave students a time for uplift and worship. Speakers often gave insightful messages on how each student could better conduct his Christian life.

Concert Review

Larnelle Harris, afour-timeGrammy winner, began hisOctober 21 concert onan upbeat note with thefamiliar"AMighty Fortress Is Our God." A colorful backdrop of lightsenhanced thesetting

The songs "Happy Day" and "All in Favor Say I" gotthecrowd toitsfeetandclappingto the beat.

It feltlikeChristmas inOctober when Harris sangtwoselectionsfromhisChristmas album

One almost expected tosee snow fallingoutside atthat point. The crowd joined intothe festivitybyjinglingcarkeys.

Problems with thesound system forced Harristochange plans acouple oftimes But, in no way did it affectquality thepresentation

Harris said after the concert that henever has "things so well planned that the Holy Spirit can't work" and sometimes God "uses equipment breakdowns to teach us something." He used theopportunity toshare from hisheart

There wasn't a band toback himup, but

Harris' tremendous vocal ability kept the crowd entertained. He did resorttothepiano acouple of times,but it basically served asa prop.

Harris chose toendthe night with the spotlight completely focused on the Lord. He led the audience in theoften tear-provoking song,"Lord, Ilove You" and then heexited the stage quietly.

The concert was what one made it to be Those who came to praise the Lord were able to do so, abundantly Those who came to be blessed were blessed Those who just came to hear some beautiful singing heardit.

In regard tohisconcerts,Harris said, "What I attempt toshareis from the heart andis honest I want tobe thesame person on the stageasI am(offthestage)."

Harrris says heknows students admire him."It's an awesome responsibility, and Idon't takeit lightly.I wanttoturnit (theadmiration) where it belongs— to theLord.

"I'm just likeeverybody else in that Ineed that cleansing that only the Lord can give."

Wayne Watson and The Imperials Concert Review

r | 1 hedanger ofChristian music is in the *• glamor and the glory ofit,whichmay swelltheartist's head withpride The Imperials and Wayne Watson have successfully avoided this danger

Vocalist David Will of the Imperials confirmed thisbysaying,"Ifthere's any talent, any glory, we give it back to Him."

Of course, there will always be those who at the sound of a screaming guitar or a steady beat will proclaim "It's sin!"

Will said. "But the Imperials isn't my ministry. Reconciling man to God ismy ministry."

If theirmusic issin, these men are wasting theirentirelives, he said.

Wayne Watson started thenight of October 8 rollingwithcutsfrom his latestalbum,"Watercolor Ponies."

He did the best he could without aband to back himup, andsome energy and excitement was lost without their presence

But Watson didn'tonly sing. He shared from hisheart relevant issues and concerns and gave encouragement tothe audience.

The highlight of the evening though was the Imperials From the onset of the showcase spectacular, the adrenaline rose and excitement, whistles and screamsfilledthe air.

Shortly into the program Willreminded the audienceexactly whatit was therefor "We came tosing, but more importantly to honor the Lord." At that, the group broke into "I Just Came to Praise the Lord."

Then it played selections from its latestLP, "Free the Fire." Itwasthesong "In the Promised Land" from its album, "Let the Wind Blow,"however,thatbrought theaudience toits feetforthefirst time.

Then a well constructed melody ofsongs from earlieralbums tooklong-timefans down memory lane

Who could help but tobe stirred by the haunting melody, "The Boss," writtenand sung by Jammie Lee Sloas. The pianosoloby Bo Cooper was Wayne Watson , who performed without the benefit of a band,concentrateson his music. The peiformer sang songsfrom hisalbum "WatercolorPonies." He alsotooktime losharehisheart inthe student-filledmulti-purposecenter.

nothing less than beautiful

The Imperials managed to keep it all in perspective Members were continually sharing Scripture and giving brief testimonies The Imperials and Wayne Watson combination willbe atoughact to follow for future groups who play for the LU audience.

Itis the College Republicans' dreams of the next president and SGA's drive for Student Union funds. It is theLight team'sfear as it smuggles Bibles.

Scaring the Life intothePeople

Scaremare is believed to have begun in 1972 under the direction of Gordon Luff,who was serving as senior youth pastor of Thomas Road Baptist church No one is sure where Luff got his original idea

from, but since its inception, Scaremare has become more than just another haunted house.

The 1988 Scaremare shattered previous records that the house held Total attendance for the nine-night event was 11,630.

This edged out the 1987 record of 11,613 The highest single attendance for one night was 2,126, compared to a previous recordof2,065

Dave Marston ofthe Youth officesaid 2100 was themost they

could ever expect toput through thehouse inone night City fire codes only allow 10 people toa group, four groups in the house ata time. Keeping within these parameters,Marstonsaiditwould be extremely difficulttobeatthe 1988record.

The YouthQuest Club,the official sponsors of the house, counted 1,555 decisions for Christ Individualswho come out of the house are presented with thegospel afterfacing thereality ofdeath Thisalsowasanewrecord,exceeding the 1,332 people making decisionsin 1987 Evangelism was the primary function of theevent.

"Many people that ordinarily wouldn't consider entering a church go to Scaremare," says TRBC youth pastor Dave Adams "Then we can have a chance to share Christ with them."

Another function of the event thatrunsthrough October and up toHalloween was itsfund-raising potential Admission to Scaremare and the 15-minute tour of thehousecost$4.50in1988 The money was channeled into special projects like building and continuedon page 103

Very little equipment, less space, a limited veiwership

When the GoingGetsTough

Ever y cluband organizationhad astandard press release Some were more creative than others; some focused primarilyon thefacts. LU-TV had theirs despitethebattles they fought behind the scenes.

Theirreleaseread:

"WLBU-TV, or better known as LU-TV, was Liberty'sstudentrun,partiallystudent-produced televisionstation Students were involved in management, programing,master controland productionofprograming

"Students were also given the opportunity to write,direct, produce and host their own programs."

Itwas alltrue. But, thestation was more thanstudentopportunities. It was studentproblems and studenttriumphs.

One of itsfirstbattles was the Oct. 14 issue of the "Liberty Champion." Itcarried an editorialclaiming the station was carriedon butahandful ofreceivers and callingforare-evaluation of its worth totheuniversity.

Jackie Beatty,station manager, responded by statingthestation is carried by 18 public monitors

She alsopointed out thelearning experience thatit had forthe students who were involved Beatty alsopointed out thatLiberty was the only Christian university with such a program.

Beatty did say students often turnedtheLU-TV monitorsoffor changed their station This,despitetheefforts oftheTV station, drasticly reduced viewership and created the illusion that the station was never seen

The station also battled with a variety of financing problems

Despite $100,000 in equipment being purchased for the fallsemester, thestaffstill did not have what itdeemed adequate A combination of space problems and lack of equipment forced acreativesolution.

Students, in order to produce their programs, worked around the clock. The TV studio was rarely empty.

Faculty advisor Steven Troxel said the problem reached beyond even that solution There still was notenough time forevery one tohave adequate timein the studio

"Usually there are a few students who want to work during thebreak,"Troxell said, illustrating the severity of the problem."Thisyear, the break was booked solid There were only two open time slots for the week on a 24-hour schedule Thiswassupposed to be their time off."

This was detreimental tostudentswho hadprograms they were ready to produce for the station

"We had good program ideas for the spring semester," Beatty said "They were creativeandwellthought But,we didn't have theequipment and room to do what we wanted The students requests to produce the

programs were denied." Yet, along withthetoughbattles came sweet victories Some studen-produced programs went ahead fullsteam Others continued on theircourse ofglory.

Damond Nelson wrote andproduced a show thatwas similarto the sit-com, "Cheers." The show's main characterwas abartender who turned his bar into a dry barafterhissalvationexperience.

A documentary program focusing on the philosophy of Christian and secular music was produced by Don Dartt He decided to do the program to educate students about music and to promote open discussion of the subject

The programs were added to the list of LU-TV student produced programs. Others included "InsideOut," "Blue Ridge Heartbeat," "What's Happenin" and "LU Jams."

"The Morgan Hout Football Show" was also student produced It, however, was avictory in itself. The program is nationallysyndicated tofivenetworks.

Beatty said the Hout show reaches an audience greater thanFamilyNet,thenetworkcarried by the monitors when LUTV is notbroadcasting

"The publicity benefits theuniversity as a whole," Beatty said, further driving home her point thatthestationwas importantfor the university

Balancing thegood and thebad, learning to overcome whatever obstacle, were other skillsstudents involved with LU-TV learned For LU-TV, when the going got rough it meant the rough got going. The 1988/89 year proved that

Infinity isthe lecture. Itisthe research and the work ofa term paper. Itis thestudyfor thebigtest. It is beyond thedescription of words. It is the churning inthebrain and the movements ofthehands. Infinity is readingand theessays. It is takinggood notes and studying theright material. It is new programs, new professors and theSchool ofGeneral Studies. It is the balanceofeach class. It is theundefinable, outside of thephysicalclassroom.

Blue desks and white boards arejelly doughnuts. As are the textbooksand theLiberty notepad. They are the lost pen and the broken lead. They are the

scantron and its little bubbles. They are the eight-digit numbers written on allone'spapers. They include the required readings and volumes of scribblednotes. They are the status sheets and registration forms. Jellydoughnuts are the class listings on thewalls and the face that was STAFF when you enrolled. They are the tangibles of the studies.

rp enure. Simply, it is a policy that states after so many number of years ofteaching successfully, tenure is granted After that, the faculty member cannot be firedforanyother reason than immorality. The policyis inplaceinmany majoruniversities.

Liberty University professors arenot grantedtenure.Dr.Guillerminexplainsthatit jeopardizes the spiritual integrity of the school To further maintain thatintegrity, professors are only offered singleyear contracts

"Ifsomeone getsby us,"saidtheRev Falwell, "and becomes aprofessor,onlytoturn around and claim he's an atheist or a homosexual...itsnotaproblem.Hiscontractis up for renewal the next year." Falwell also mentioned thatthe faculty member in question would finish outhiscontracted year doing trivialresearch onaremote mountain top

For studentsand supportersoftheministry, the no tenure policy iswelcome. Itis a guarantee that when a student walks intoa classroom, there is a Christian professor standing before him. Itisaguaranteetothe parents and other ministry supportersthat studentson Liberty mountain arebeingproperlyinstructedinaChristianenvironment.

Dr. James Treece,associate professor of sociology, says, "I was never interested in tenure. IfI am notdoing agoodjobteaching, Iwant toknow;andI willbehappy toleave I try todo my best unto theLord, so Idonot worry about tenure."

Dr CarlWindsor, professoroftelecommunications, says,"Idon'tthinkitisappropriate at any institution butespecially atChristian schools. No otherindustry hassuch asystem inplace sowhy should education,which has to adapt constantly to changing technology and knowledge,beanexception?"

Dr David Miller, professorofpsychology, believes "tenure is for the benefit of the weakest members ofafacultyinschools were administrators cannot be trusted Ithas no place atLiberty."

"I agree with thenotenurepolicyaslong asacademicfreedom ismaintained."

Dr. Bruce Triplehorn

Dr. David Towles, associate professor of communications, believesthat"grantingtenure to the faculty would take governance power away from the Church (Thomas Road BaptistChurch)andthe Board (ofTrustees.) Inshiftingthis power tothefaculty, the granting of tenure would probably cause Liberty University to lose its religious distinctive withinashortperiodoftime."

There is aminority offacultymembers that see thepolicy asalack ofcommitment to its faculty on the part of the university They believeit lowersfacultymoral.

aCheating x Itwas not aproblem, Just a Possibility

Th e potential of academic cheating is present on every campus," said PresidentA. PierreGuillermin.

Itwas the truth. The possibility was there each time you satdown to take anothertest. Whether a stolen glance at a neighbor's exposed test or a prepared slip of paper, carefully cupped in your hand It was a real temptation

The majority of students entered Liberty University withan understanding ofits honor code It stated any student found guilty of academic cheating faced immediate expulsion Likewise, any studentwho wasawareof another's cheating was subject to the same penalty

But was cheating arealityofstudent life?

"I don't think cheating was a problem

There were a few people who didn't live up tothe standards oftheuniversity inthearea; but,overall,itdidnot affectthe studentbody," said sophomore Jody Barker.

Some professors took a different view and addressed itin their classrooms They realized cheating could be a problem in their very largeclasses.

"I'm nottalkingtothe 95percentof you who willnot cheat,"saidDr. HaroldWillmington to one of his New Testament classes of more than500students."Rather,Iwanttotalktothe five percent who might be tempted to cheat and Iencourage you notto."

Dr. C. Sumner Wemp also urged students nottocheat Hisevangelism classesusually

had close to 500 students. His famous battle cry of "Don't do it, young champion!" will long be remembered

Students,faculty and administration recognized cheating as a potential problem and addressed itas such If affected, however, lessthan one percent of the student body

Dr. Guillermin believed the honor code was a deterrenttostudents who mightcheat. However, he doesn't believe the honor code was a strong asit could have been "Someday,I hope we have a stronger honor code thatstudentsliveup to An honor code isonlyacollectionofwords....Ittakesstudents who caretomake it work."

The Liberty Way, a student handbook,includes the honor code, stating each student has the responsibility toreport infractions of the rulesby any student Rules for which the penalty was expulsion included immoral behavior,use or possession ofdrugs oralcohol,as well as academic cheating

Methods ranged greatlybetween anindividual's subject,but not asgreatlyas methods between individuals For some, attending class guaranteed passingany test. Forothers,six hoursofstudyinggave them afightingchance. Forsome, theology was child'splay;others struggled to graspthesimplestofits concepts

InstitutionofChangeandTradition

rhroughou t the history of higher education, educators have disagreed about the purpose and function of higher education

Some have contended that the function is thatofcultivatingtheintellect,discipliningthe mind and helping students develop a system of thought that will enable them to function wellinsociety.

Conversely, others have contended that institutions of higher learning exist to serve society and thatcolleges and universities are expressionsoftheage we live in

Certainly, Liberty University is concerned withcultivatingtheintellectanddiscipliningthemind.

It isalsoconcerned with helping students develop a complete systemofthoughtthatwillenable them to make appropriate decisionsand tofunction inallwalks oflife.

To this we add a third dimension

Liberty University also endeavors toprovide a Christ-centered education that is comprehensive in scope yet practical in approach, onethatis geared toproduce students who can cope not only with the problems of their timesbutalsowiththeopportunitiesto live, teach and preach the saving knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ to a lost and dying world

The history of Liberty University has been a chronology of miraclesandaccomplishments

From itsinception,Liberty has beenadynamicinstitution.While other colleges and universities have been built on years and years of small, calculated steps, God has seen fit tobless and advance usinleapsand bounds As a result, today,Liberty is known as one of the fastest, ifnot the fastest growing university in America Itisalso recognized as one ofthe world's, ifnottheworld'slargestuniversity of itskind

For example, today, according totheSept. 1 issueofthe"Chronicle ofHigher Education," Liberty University isnow the largest private university inthestateofVirginia

This year, the university will enroll more than 12,000students inour resident and adult education programs, representing all 50states and more than 30 foreignnations

W e now have 230 full-time faculty of which 56 percent hold earned doctorates and whose educational experience and background represent more than 360 accredited and recognized institutions of higher learning.

Liberty University believes in academic excellence, and itisnow offering annually morethan$2millioninacademicscholarships.

More importantly,however, isthe impact the university ishaving on the world though itsChristianwitness.Morethan16,000alumni now represent Liberty University acrossthis

And,every year, current students on gospel teams carry our spiritual message tothe ends oftheearth.

But we want tomake even more ofacontribution to Christian higher education We want to capitalize on the breakthrough in learning technology We want to keep pace with change. Our students have a right to expect thatthe preparation they receive here willbe rightinstepwith theirfuture vocation and withsociety

W e want to increase our outside sources of funding We want to enlarge our campus facilities We want to add more dormitories and two more floors to our Arthur S. DeMoss Learning Center

The new Thomas Road Baptist Church to be built on property adjacent to campus willbring us a large assembly hallseatingthousands.

Certainly, our future depends on change and advance if we aretobe vitaland dynamic. And yet itdepends on tradition that does not change ifwe are to be ofessentialgood tothis world. The unchanging Christ, His unchanging Word, our unchanging heavenly hope — on these we take our stand. On these, we willnotchange Liberty University now has an opportunity unsurpassed in the history of education to provide a dynamic Christian witness and leadership to the world

Liberty University also has the potential of becoming not only one ofthegreatChristian institutionsofhigherlearning, but also one of the great universitiesofthe world

nation and around the world.

Today,more than 1,000 ofourgraduatesare senior pastors of churches. Many others are in related ministries. More than 1,000 are principals, teachers and coaches in elementary, secondary and post-secondary schools

Thousands of our graduates are representing Christ in business, government service, telecommunications,journalism athleticsand many other vocations and professions.

As we begin this new academic year, Itrust the membersofthe administration, the faculty, staffand student body will realize we are a part of history in the making.

As Dr. Francis Schaeffer said, "You can change the world."

Someone has also said, "If you want to change the world, there is no time like the present to prepare yourself for the task at hand.1'

This isthechallenge and charge I place before you as we begin the I4HS-89 academic year

Athletics

Infinity is Division One play. It is themental preparation and thestrategy ofeach event. It is the work ofa coach. It contains the hope ofvictoryand stingof defeat. It is the prayers and aspirations of each team member. Infinity is the team acting as one, winning as a whole and losing as a team. It is the unmeasurable effort ofthe individual. Itis the unseen unityand harmony that goes intoeach event.

Eat right. Train right. These are the jellydoughnuts. Daily runsand visits tothe weight room. Tough schedules and travel. Practice, practice and more practice. They are theinjuries and thestudent train-

ers. They are touchdowns and home runs.They are crossing the finish line first. Jelly doughnuts are the pieces of equipment and theuniforms. They are the cheers of the crowd and the silence.

Athletes deal with each.

1988-89 saw our first grasp atthe infinityofDivision One, while we continued to play within the realm of jelly doughnuts.

Infinity is good roommates. It is great RA s and a wonderful hall. It is administrators and faculty. It is senior status and graduation. It is the first attempt with extended curfew passes. It is reprimands, warnings and avoiding both. It is the papers to befiledand completed in triplicate. It is the hope of graduation in three years and the reality offive.It is careful planning and career guidance.

Jelly doughnuts are the general education classes. The y are the roommate s and dirty clothes, the always lacking space, the need to get away. The y are the tangibles and daily routines. The y are the friends and the meals. Jelly doughnuts are the game s played until

the sun rises. The y are the afternoon naps and the windo w blinds. The y are living in a hotel and moving into ne w senior dorms. The y are the physical preparations for each class period. The y are the papers that need grading. The y involve all of the items that each person deals with as the year progressed.

People searched for the infinities in 1988-89 as they worked with each of the jelly doughnuts.

Vision is thebasisforallsuccessfulministry. To bealeader, one must bea visionary. He mustcertainly beabletoseefarther down the road thanhispeers. He must have some idea of where he is going, even ifhe doesn't know how he's going to get there. And those goals or visions thathe has setforhimself become motivating factors and drive him outof complacency, out of a willingness toaccept what is permanent. It brings him through hardships. It takeshim out of present failure. It moves him on to capture the dream that God has put in his heart. It's alsoreal vision, real spiritual vision, thatnever allows you the luxury of discouragement. Itnever allowsyou to retreat. It never allows you to acceptanything thatis negative. ??

Poems, Prayers and Promises

Doubt . It'sa very real part ofour nature ashuman beings.AsChristians,we know we have no reason to doubt. However ... at times ... it sneaks up on us.

Isthere really a God whocan intervene in this world? Areanyone's prayers doing any good?

Well,God putallofthose doubts aside in 1988 for the faculty and students of Liberty University

In 1985, yearbook advisor and Professor Mikie Survant andhiswifeSuehaddecided tostarttheir family However, medical problems delayed that beginning until the springof 1988. Itwas then they announced their first child would arrive in mid-November.There wasacertain air ofexcitement about thewhole thing

The excitement died down and people settled back intotheirroutines.Mikie kept everyone's attention focused on theNov 18 duedate.

However, on Saturday, Sept.24,things changed Sue went into labor early that morning. Mikie took hertoVirginia BaptistHospital where they triedtostop labor to give the baby more time to develop Doctors watched a fetal monitor carefully and observed the baby's heart was not reacting correctly.

An ultrasound revealed the possibility the baby had a life-threatening condition called hydrops and a chance of a threechambered heart. Itwasdecided to move mother andchild tothe University of Virginia hospital where the potential problems could be better dealt with

Sue wasairlifted by helicopter to UVA inCharlottesville,VA. There wasno room on theflight forMikie He made the onehour trip by car with Dave and Debbie Flemming.

Physicians attheUVA hospital continued the efforttostop the delivery.Despite the strongest drug for the purpose,iittle Bethany was born at dawn on Sunday morning,Sept.25.Doctors gave the baby a zero percent chance oflivingthroughthe birth.

The littlelife, however,hung inthe balance Over three pounds ofher 7-pound-2ounce birth weight wasfluid.One minute after birth,shewasgiven a zero APGAR score

APGAR scores evaluate a baby's vital functions, such as breathing and heart rate Normal scores range from 4 to 6

Four minutes later, herscore was still zero. Most babies have reached a7bythattime. Finally,after ten minutes,Bethany's score was bumped up to a4.

Doctors explained Bethany's condition to thenew parents ashydrops Surrounding the heart was a pair of cysts. This slowed theheart rate,inturn slowing the blood flow through the kidneys. Fluid, which normally would have been drained

Sue. They knew many people werepraying and they watched thefirstmiracle of life, the birth oftheirbaby Then they watched the second — their baby lived and kept living.

"It isonething toknow howto pray It isanother thing todoit. But towatchGod answer prayers,tofeel them and the love of people is— just — marvelous."

However, the doctors were stillsaying "if in the matter of Bethany's going home. Forthree weeks after her birthday, they were still notoptimistic.

The days rolled by Bethany hadher good days and hernot-so-good days. The many friends on theLiberty campuswaited and kept praying

For the Survants, it was day by day, hour by hour, minute by minute Stress and fatigue dampened their spirits, but never their hope. It wasa continualwaiting

Mikie began commuting between Charlottesvilleand Lynchburg tomeet with his photography classes Sue moved into the Ronald McDonald House atCharlottesville tostay close to Bethany.

As time rolled around, the doctors changed their "ifs"— to"whens."

The Survants readied themselves for Bethany's homecoming around Thanksgiving. Doctors would wait until she was three-years-old toremove thecysts They prepared Mikie and Suetodeal withoxygen and tube-feeding,a newpartof Bethany's home life until theoperation

Miss Bethany Survant at Christmas 1988 by thebody, built up Infants who suffer from thecondition usually have a mortality rate as high as 98 percent. Doctors were notoptimistic

The prayers for Bethany's life began. Faculty and students prayed. The members of Thomas Road Baptist Church prayed. Members of Lynchburg area churches prayed. The word spread, and very soon various churches across the nation began to pray for one little life in Virginia

"We believe it was divine ijitervention," Sue said. "Itwas as if we could feelthe prayers and seethem answered."

Expressing their experience was not something that came easily to Mikie and

However, things began tochange dramatically Herbreathing became labored Her color turned gray Doctors feltthey could notwait to remove thecysts.They would have to perform thefour-houroperation atonce.

On Dec. 8, she had surgery. Again, there wasa barrage ofprayers onher behalf. After anhour-and-a-half,the doctors emerged — smiling. The cysts,contained intwoorange-size pouches,were removed easily. They were notentangled with the heart and lung as feared Doctors were jubilant.This little one had made history shewas a one-in-10,000 baby.

Bethany recovered inonly a week-anda-half. The "oxygen and tube" planwas abandoned.

Eleven days later, Bethany came — home. The Survants — Mikie, Sue and Bethany — were a family

"Three years ago,a mountain lady taught me how toweave egg baskets," she said.

Faculty

Ever since, shehasbeen practicing her skill. In the short time she hasbeenatit, she has made several hundred baskets tosell or give asgifts Many ofherbaskets decorate her office and home, aswell.

Originally, egg baskets were constructed ofround willow leaves Mrs Fink, however, uses white oak to make her baskets, which take several hours tomake and color.

She sells her baskets to friends andstudents, whoin turn have many usesfor her creations Some of thebasketsare used solelyas decorative pieces.Others are enhanced with dried flowersor pine cones. Still,someare used to keep books and magazines She haseven known them tobeusedto serve dinner rolls in.

"My baskets last longer than store purchased baskets," she said "Storebought baskets,which come mainly from Japan,are coated with lacquer, making them brittle. My baskets, however, stay fresh."

She explained thatproper care of the basketsincluded watering

"Just a spray every couple ofweeks," she said.

A Place oftheir Own

Home , Sweet Home " — probably the mos t over-used and undervalued cliche w e had, ma y have been muc h more under-valued because w e never stop to consider the truth of it

Th e average professor had his ow n interpretation of it — something called "Office,

Sweet Office."

Th e office for the professor was a special place. It was a reprieve from the classroom It was a place to relax. It was somewhere to toss all the books and papers Basically, it was a hom e away from home .

For some professors, 1988/ 89 represented a mov e of that home. Offices that formerly served the Physical Plant, which moved to the North Campus , were converted for faculty use Th e School of Communications moved from DeMoss , the former office being converted into classrooms, to ne w offices located above the post office.

Th e creation of the additional classrooms in DeMos s eliminated the need for two classrooms in Dor m 20, which returned to use as faculty and adln an office decorated with his styrofoam cup collection Professor Charles

ministrative offices

Whe n they were not moving, professors mad e themselves at home Unfortunately, not every professor has the luxury of his ow n office. Man y doubled up, sharing the same room

Sometimes, decoration of the office was intentional. However, the majority of office decoration just "kinda happened." A picture here and a do-hicky there, a poster tacked up on the wall and a sign on the door until the office was a reflection of the person or persons wh o occupied it.

Triplehorn believesLiberty is a great environment to explore spiritual principles

"In secular schools, you don't have the opportunity to mixwith good faculty and students (in aspiritual sense) That gives Libertya distinctive edge," he says.

He also believes students have two avenues to getto know their God. He defines spiritual revelation as"special andnatural." Natural revelation comes by studying what Godcreated and relating that back to Him

Behind every faculty member there was A Willing and Able Servant

Amodest group of peo-

ple kept theuniversity together during the 1988/89 school year. They stood just outside ofthespotlight,helping faculty,students and visitors. They answered phone calls, gave directions and explanations. They wrote and typed They organizedand filed They corrected papers and administered tests. They were everywhere doing everything. Wait butamoment and they were soon back at their desks

LU secretaries,as a whole, didn't like thespotlight

"If we say how much work we do,it sounds like we are complaining Ifwe saythat we

do a good job under allof the different circumstances, it sounds like we're bragging.It is a Catch-22," explained one secretary.

"Mainly, we're servants," said another "We're here to serve thestudents and the faculty Inreturn, allwe askfor is an occasional thankyou."

Professors who complained about the secretary's work didn't receive the same treatment as those who expressed their appreciation No individual faculty member was ever intentionally ignored or slighted, however

"Knowing the work you're doing will be appreciated isa powerful motivator," said a

secretary who has been at Liberty forfiveyears.

The perfect faculty member, several secretaries said, realized thatsecretarieshave more to do than just his/her work. Additionally,hewasorganized and didn'twaste thesecretary's time needlessly. Most importantly, hesaid "thank you"and indicated he appreciated the work thesecretariesdid.

Students soon realized each secretary tried to do her best on thejob She could notand would notoverride the policies of the university or professor for the student. This included items such assigning students

intoclassesorallowingthemto

drop.

"We did what the professor instructed us todo.Ifhesaid not toallow anystudentstosign in to a class, then we couldn't However, students felt we could and should," said a secretary who began in 1987.

"We're willing servants. We're here to serve the facultyand students. W e want thingsto run smoothly and weappreciate it when people realize that," said a secretary for one of theuniversity'sdeans

Liberty Recognizes Faithful Service

Libert y University, inits short life of 18 years, has had 96 personnel who have served it for ten or more years. That means that one-third of the faculty has, without tenure, chosen to make Liberty itslifework.

Of the initial handful of teachers who were present when the school firststartedin 1971,Dr Dale Gibson remains on board. He has been at Liberty since 1971 and on afulltime basis since 1976.

"I've stayed primarily because of the excitement and growth," he says."Liberty isa 'can do' type of institution. New program areas, the erection of new buildings and the constant development signal success at Liberty

"Liberty keeps a person young and vibrant The enthusiasm of students and leadership isinvigorating.These factorsmake it an easy decisionto stay .. .

"I like Liberty because of thestudents They areuniquely alive. They're upbeat. Each one appears to have definite goals and expectations as to how tobestserve the Lord and Ifindthem optimisticconcern-

ing the future of America."

Vice President, Dr Harold Willmington, who has been with the university for 16 years, says he has remained "because Ibelieve in the challange of Chancellor Falwell's

tofulfillthe firstpart ofthe Great Commission Idesire to fulfillthe second part which is teaching I desire to place the most amount of Bible in my students inthe leastamount of time."

Four other faculty members have also served for 16years. Dr Boyd Rist has remained "because Ihave sensedrepeatedly the Lord's hand on this institution Ihave felt fulfilled personally and professionally

by my association with thefaculty at the university."

Dr. Frank Schmitt came to stay until retirement or the rapture, he says "I feel that thephilosophy and theology of Liberty University's Seminary aremore in linewith my views than anywhere Icould be."

Dr Glenn Sumrall says, "Liberty University has offered me therareopportunity toparticipate in the development of a unique Christian university. I have been challenged in my own life by the vision, goals and accomplishments of Chancellor Falwell The lessons I have learned and the personal growth I have experienced have been greater than any I would have experienced at any other institution."

Dr David Randlett thoroughly believes in the philosophy ofthe institution "I have since Day One When I arrived inMay 1973, I was instep with the philosophy Because of my belief in the philosophy of the ministry and Liberty University, I feel it is my calling to propagate that — and what better way of doing it than

through college students."

Call of the Dean

Th e day started off like any other;but, as he turned the combinationtohis mailbox, a strange feeling began to circulate through his body.

At first, he had high hopes about the little card inhisbox Maybe itwas a package from home. He sure could use a box of homemade cookies right about now His confidence grew — that's what the card had to be for

Suddenly, the smile left hisface and was replaced by a look of horror He could not believe his eyes. The card he pulled from his box was his worst nightmare It was an offical call slip - to Dean John Baker'soffice.He knew he was doomed

"These thingshappen toother people, not me," he said in shock. "What did Ido wrong? I'm innocent."

He tried his best to console himself, but couldn't. He knew he hadn't done anything wrong Still, an aching fear worried him. The little blue card was all he could think of throughout the day

He concluded the only thing to do was answer the callslip. He had no choice. If he refused,he'd get into more trouble

He made the call later that

afternoon.

"Hello, this is John Student," he said rather faintly "I got a call slip in my box today and Iguess Ineed to make an appointment to see Dean Baker."

"Oh, yes,Mr. Student," the voice on the other end said. "Dean Baker said to expect your call and to make an appointment assoon aspossible."

His heart sank to his toes The dean was expecting him

"I must be in worse trouble than I thought," he said to himself

"Would you be free tomorrow morning afterchapel?"the voice asked in a tone he thought sarcastic

"Ah ... ah ... ya. I think that would be okay."

He hung the phone up in dismay His roommate, whom he

was always atodds with, wasn't much help

"So, you got a dinner date with the dean. Make sure you can dance,cause they'llstep all over your toes," the roommate laughed

"But, 1 haven't done anything wrong, so I'm not even worried," he replied, trying to sound smug

That was a lie He didn'tget a wink of sleep all night and was a walking mental case through chapel. As the end of the service grew closer, his palms grew wet from thesweat

"How am Igoing to explain expulsion to my parents?" he whined on hisway tothedean's ofiice. "I didn't mean to take those crackers out of Marriott. I forgot they were even in my pocket Now, I've turned to a life ofcrime and I've got to pay

forit."

He arrived at the office

"Joe Student?" she smiled "Ya."

"The dean's been waiting for you. You may go in now." It was the voice from the telephone yesterday. Her smile convinced him she enjoyed torturing students

He walked into the moderately sized office.Itwas furnished nicely enough But there was the desk with Dean Baker sitting behind it and flipping through a file

"Mr. Student, have a seat," he said gruffly,not looking up. "I've heard some rather outstanding reportsabout yourbehavior I've looked over your record and I find that the reports have been quite true."

"But but I can explain "

"There is no way to explain it,Mr. Student -except to say that we wish we had more students like you."

He was shocked More students like

"A 3.85 cumulative GPA and no reprimands throughout sour Liberty career. Very impressive."

Som e ma y have never heard it, but still it wa s out there.

I turn off the alarm clock and go back tosleep Iwake up again when the girls next door decide tojam with Kim Boyce How can anyone listen to such loud music at this time in the morning?

Speaking of which, what time is it? 7:30?!

I jump down from my bunk,twisting my ankle as I land on the freezing cold floor I limp into the bathroom The shower line is almost a mile long It'sa good thing Iwashed my hair last night

Now, I'm back in my room, trying to decide what to wear Hmmm, somebody said it's supposed to be in the 70's today Guess I'll wear a light-weight dress

How much time do I have? Not enough to iron anything. This outfit isn't too wrinkled

Drats! I forgot to plug in my curling iron Now, I'll never get to class on time

Calm down,girl. You can do itifyou just keep cool.

Checklist time Teeth? Brushed Face? Aha,no makeup

I dab cover-up on a few of those ugly things I prefer to call "blemishes" and brush some powder over my face.

7:45? No problem The curling ironshould be ready.Ouch! Yep, itsureis

Where's my hairspray? I don't believe this! I bet Kathy

borrowed it again She seems to operate on the theory that the more roommates thereare, themore thereistoborrow and the less she has to buy

There itisin her desk drawer. Ioughta wake her up right

Ok, I think I'm ready now Where are my books?

There's my biology text on

probably under this lump. Got 'em

I should make my bed The RAs are using all their writeup slips on me.

All right, the bed's made, the trash is emptied and I've got all my books. It's 7:55. Time to head out.

I walk down the hall and throw open the door Looks likea nice— Whoa!Looks like it might rain. Should Igo back for my umbrella?

Nah? It won't start for another half-hour orso

Whoops! The ravinealways seems a lot more slippery when I'm in a hurry.

What was that? It's starting to rain!

By the time Iget onthe canopied sidewalk, I'm totally soaked Oh, well,at leastI'llbeon timefor class. I can't afford any more tardies

Is everybody staring at me or isitmy imagination? Haven't they ever seen a drowned rat before?

Down this hall Oh, no! Please, Lord, please don't let him see me like this. J

Whew! Ithink Imade it I Here we go Hey, whereis everybody?

Check the door again. Here it is "8:00 a.m English class is canceled for today."

Aaaaagghh

Laura Gregg

"Calm down girl. You can make it. Checklist time. Teeth? Brushed. Face? Aha, no makeup."

There was an art to getting to class on time regardless of how late you jumped out of bed.

Liberty men want Liberty ladies to learn the lessons of Taste

H e isliterally prepared for this moment

Walking confidently intothe cafeteria,his scanning eyesspot her inasecluded corner of the building

Approaching her table, he politelyasks if he may joinher She consents They talk

Allgoes well — that is, until the meal isfinished Shesays she needs tobe going. Hecan't let this opportunity pass.The words blurt outofhis mouth "You want to go to a movie, Friday night?"

She smiles He smiles She speaks:"Oh, I'm not sure I've really been out ofitthis week. Let me think about it."

He frowns, but she doesn't notice They exchange farewells andsheleaves the table

"Let me think about it," he mumbles to himself "What's there to think about? It's not like buying a used car."

Surely this year would have been better if mothers had taught their daughters the art of turndowns Most of the year's turndowns weren't tactful orsympathetic

The Let Me Think About It turndown, for example, was weak Thegirl didnot want to go out with the guyorhurt his feelings. But the response made the guy feel like a stock

option or magazine subscription

Then there was the ever popular I've Got To Wash My Hair turndown. Itwas not creative on her behalf,andit was a blatant insult to the guy'sintelligence

"All weekend?" he asked himself

Of course,one should never forget the / Really Don't Want To. It was direct and left no unanswered questions. However, it resulted inamush of mus-

clethat once was aman. It was not sympathetic. Theguyusually felt two inches tall after hearing this one

However, the most common turndown wasthequality I'm Sorry,I've Made Other Plans. Thanks Anyway. This saved the ego while getting the point across. Theguyusually forgot the whole thing ifshe didn't suggest another time

Then, ifthe guystilldid not get the hint, she had made plans again,which was farbet-

Tasteandtact were items that the men of Liberty wantedfrom the Women of Liberty. Guys, afraid ofrejection, were hesitant to ask women out. Liberty women continued to wonder whyguys never dated.

The Student Government Association gave students theopportunity to rent refrigerators forthe dorm rooms again this year With dreams ofcold Cokes, apples, frozenyogurt and chilled Domino's Pizza, studentsgladlypaid the $55 fee However, they found that thelittle boxes had many other uses.

Allison Pentecost said she kept film in her refrigerator "Itprolonged the film'slife," sheexplained "People thought itwas weird, but I don't care."

David Eeles kept batteries in his refrigerator to prolong theirshelflife "I also kept candles in itbecauseit keptthem from dripping when they melted."he claimed. There were noboundaries during the year "Ikept deodorant in my refrigerator It works better when it's cold," freshman Scott Hofert said.

Lifestyle

Anyon e can watch them

They stand, sitand roll over They'll lie on their backs with one foot flailing the air. Or they'll rollover on their stomachs and liepassively. They'll pace back and forth, always aware of the leash that binds them. They'll siton the bed,on the desk and even in the doorway

They are phonies

Phonies spent hours on the phone They talked with "him" or "her." They talked about 4x-6y=z(x-y) and the critical mass They talked about the monotone professor and that class that seemed to drag on forever. They talked about their Marriott experiences and the friends they had in common.

They talked about which dorms were receiving the

WLB U signal this week and the "LU Jams" on LU TV. They argued the latest"Point/ Counterpoint" of the Liberty Champion. They talked about the last concert and the upcoming one. They talked ofthe football team and the basketball games They talked about the elections, the return to space and the stealth bomber

They talked ofDave Adams' classand the Wednesday night service. They talked about theirlastparking ticketand the long lines They talked about home and tomorrow

They talked about anything and everything — incessantly

Some envied the phonies. Some hated them. Some wanted to become a phonie, while others feared they would.

Phonies — more than a habit a lifestyle

A cord binds them tothe wall. They are stuckinan

Reclining in the comfort ofhis bed, Jason Lee talks with "her." The bed was one ofmany places phonies occupied whileon the phone.

Scott Joria sits in the doorway of his room while talking on the phone. Phonies found many ways to conquer

Students competed in DeMoss, empty classrooms and the dorms, seeing who could draw the best and quickest. Their scratch pad creations could not compare with Monet or Renoir,but they hada good time trying

Sh e struggled down the hall, weighted down by two weeks worth of dirty clothes Setting the laundry basket inside the dorm door, Joan went back toherroom for a few items she'd forgotten

She removed a dust-covered typewriter, a fewpairsofshoes, some discarded textbooks and several shiny black crickets from herclosetbefore reaching in for her laundry soap.

Stuffing some dollar billsin her pocket, she went back down the hall As she bent to pick up the basket of laundry, she held herbreath tokeep out the overpowering smell ofthe clothes

The door swung slowly open as she leaned against it.She wove her way up the sidewalk and began to ascend the cement steps which were made forsomeone with short legs but a long stride

A sock wiggled itsway over theedge ofthe basket and dangled towards the ground. She made a grab for itand slipped on a step.Laundry went everywhere.

Crimson with embarrassment, she scooted around, grabbing up a shirt from the ground, a skirt from the stair rail

After what seemed like eternity,she recovered every item and continued to the laundry room in Dorm 13 She leaned the sagging basket against the brick wall and struggled to open the heavy glass door

When she finally gotinside,

The Week's Wash

she set the basket down on a table with a thud After a short search, shepiled herlaundryin a washing machine that appeared to be in working order. She poured in some soap and set the dial on permanent press Pulling thedollar billsoutof her pocket,shewent tothe bill changer. She put in two bills and seven quarters popped down in to the change cup. She stalked over tothe ticket

Thirty pairs of eyes briefly flickered, then refocused on the television screen. She scanned theroom Alltheseats were taken She plopped down on the rug-covered floor and leaned against thewall.

Absent-mindedly watching the horrors of "The Real Ghostbusters" flicker across the screen, she thought ofthe homework she hadn't done. The thought almost put herto sleep.

shivering and she removed her clothes Almost before she could take out the last sock, someone invited heroutof the way and tossed hisownclothes in

She threw her soaking wet garments into the dryer, shoved in a ticket and pushed the start button Nothing happened

She opened the dryer door and slammed itshut againto be sure it was latched She again pushed the startbutton A few seconds later,themachine swung into sluggishaction

As she watched theceaseless spinning,she felthypnotic motion putting herina trance. So she went back to the TV room.

Twenty minutes later,she returned to remove her damp clothes from the dryer She hung up her rather drippy dresses,skirtsand shirts. Then she threw her underwear in a basket and buried it under her towels Gathering up everything,sheheaded for the door

She stood stock stillin total shock when a young manheld the door open for her Ashe stood towering over her, she suddenly realized that he wasn't a figment ofher imagination and walked out the door.

To complete the damageto her heart,he walked out after her "My name's Tom. May I help you with that?"

machine, slammed two quarters in the slots and shoved in the metal plate. She grabbed the ticket themachine spatout ather.

She returned to the washer with her tickets,shoved onein and glared atthemachine until it kicked into action Water trickled into the bin. She watched until the wash cycle began; then, satisfied that it would work, she went into the TV room

Eventually sheshook off her apathy and went back intothe laundry room.The steam made her clothescling damply toher skin.

She threw a dryer sheet ina dryer someone had just finished using and fought off all the people who laid claim to it. Keeping her hand on thedryer door,she watched the washing machine quake asit finished up the spin cycle.

The washer finally stopped

"Joan Yes, thank you I'd really appreciate that."

Suddenly she felt as if she were flying Nothing seemed thesame Lifebecame veryimportant Boundless energy filled her sluggish soul.

The skywas bluer The grass was greener The clouds disappeared

Maybe doing laundrywasn't so bad after all.

Edg e of Night

I t was always different — a different time, a different image, a different color. It brought back the memories, accelerated thedreams. It offered peace and comfort

One saw it by themansion, on the mountain or by the dorm. Itwas always different yet always there. It happened every night.

Each night thesunset The sun sinking behind the mountains,the dark night edging in.

The deep indigo ofthe mountains contrasting the fading light The oranges, reds, yellows and purples announcing the arrival ofthe stars.

One may have watched the sunset with a friend orina silentsolitude Aswewatched, it made usthink Everyday something different Everyday something unique Yet, everyday ending in a reflection of the dawn

"Aaag! Cold water."

Ishivered under the freezing droplets and went through the motions of a shower. Hopping out, I snatched up my towel, wrapped it around me and headed for my warm room.

I emerged twenty minutes later, wearing a wrinkled dress shirt and clashing pants My hairwas damp and Iwas trying to geta knot inmy tiethat did not match

Joining the crowd of stragglers,Ientered the multi-purpose.I jumped at the sound of a cheerful voice echoing through the gym

"Welcome to the 8:15 Sunday morning serviceon Liberty Mountain. Let's all rise and sing Thisisthe Day!"

Three thousand voices warbled the words as I made my way up to the bleachers, step-. ping around hundreds of bodies. I finally settled myself along the wall at the very top.

My eyed closed involuntarily

"I'm not sleeping," I thought. "Ijustneed torestfor a minute." The next thing I heard was the rustle of the crowd as it rose to leave.

The rushing crowd dragged me along in the mad dash to class I dropped into a seat, way in the back so Profs eagle eyes wouldn't spot me ifI fell asleep

There was some singing and laughing Prof set up a couple of strangers for a date to Scareemare.Then he delivered hislecturewhich was short and concise — Iguess Itwas over and everyone was leaving Ispotted a few friends inthe lunch lineand joined them. By

the time we made itinside, my stomach was making its presence known. We managed to make our way through the food line and we grabbed a table over by the dish return

After our second serving of chocolate chip cookies,we returned our trays and headed back to our dorms

"Good, no roommates around," I said to my empty room.

I changed into sweats and climbed into bed.

Hours later,Iwas awakened by the gentle closing of the door

4:30? No way! My roommates had left without waking me up for class.Iwas going to be late — again.

Laura Gregg

Getting up was onlyhalf the battle. Staying awake constituted thewar.

Stayingawake during meetings was easyifyou were wellrestedand readyfor the service. Some students carried18 hours and tried to work 40 hours a week.

Learning Experience

Ithrew my shoes inthe middleofthefloor. After all, I was a freshman and itwas my room

My new roommate glared.

"Are you going to leave those there?"

I stared blankly back.

"I might trip,"she said

I continued tostare.

"All right,"shesaid, picking up my shoes She proceeded to put them in my closet.

I couldn't believe it.Here I was at the height of my independence, and my roommate was putting my shoes away

The year progressed and,to my dismay, all three of my roommates were neatness

buffs. I made my bed every morning, did my chores regularly and never again left my shoesin themiddle ofthe floor.

My sophomore year hitand, at last,I was rid of my three picky roommates I had a whole new year ahead to do what I wanted. This was true independence

My freshman roommate sprang into the room on the first day and threw her shoes on the floor. How could she possibly do that to our room?

Istaredatherand shestared at me.

"Are you going to leave those there?" Iasked. Melanie

Patience.

It became a requirement for Liberty seniors during the fall semester "You'llbeoutofthehotelsand into your new dorms soon," they were told Soon

In total, close to350 seniors werehoused inthe HolidayInn and Sheraton Inn. Half of them were men, half ladies — allin waiting

"Soon" was a month and thentwo,asconstruction prob-

lems beyond anyone's control hindered the completion of new senior dorms. Conflicts also arose with zoning,reducing theoriginalteninaquadto eight. Nothing seemed to go right

Original dates put all seniors inthe new dorms bymid-October The first handful of 90 moved ininlateOctober asone of the four new dorms was completed.

"Patience," seniors told

themselves Patience.

Vanity That'swhat most ofus call it.Beautyfor the sake ofbeauty and self. Tinted contacts — beauty and technology united. And, pow, we can have the eyes we've always wanted — brilliant blue,rich brown oremerald green.The choice was ours

This was the fadthatcarried our nation into the end of the decade Students ofLiberty were a part of the movement foravariety of reasons.

"I wear Elens contacts,"

Jim Connelly admitted "The only way they came wastinted." He wore blue lenses over hisnaturally blue eyes The result, as he describes, was "bluer." He said with the lenses a lotof people noticed hiseyesduring theschoolyear.

Carlene Lewis said herdecision to purchase tinted con-

Contacts

tacts was a last-minute one Her eyesandcontactsareblue.

"It doesn't feel like I'm

wearing tinted contacts,"she said "The resulting color doesn't look fake." She added she believes tinted contacts should betreated like cosmetics."Oneshould wear them to

enhance — notchange — her natural eyecolor," shesaid

Lynn Beardslee wore aqua tinted contacts with hernaturallygreen eyes "A lotofpeople tell me I have beautiful eyes," Beardsleestated "But itreallydoesn't matter much because I know they're fake."

Aesthetic beauty was not the primary reason that Beardslee purchased hertinted contacts "I kept washing my clear contacts down the drain," she explained "Ilost three pair that way because I couldn't see them. Withthe w tinted ones, I #^ ^ know where They're easy to find."

The three agreed they would purchase tinted contacts again and have recommended them to friends.

There were two sides to each story. Two views. One was often through Rose-Colored

"I had no choice. Tinted was theonly way they make the contacts."

Graduation 1988

Senior Dorms

Building seniordormswas

a lengthy process Construction began during the summer of 1988 and was completed lateintheyear Unavoidable problems delayed completion bytheOctober 15 date, extending thetime seniors stayed at local hotels.

Beth Harris reads the USA Today while eating her dinner of rice and tuna.Hotel residents ate many meals at thehotel rather than taking thebus back to campus.

Reading a note from home, Janet Pierpointfinds a corner and a moment for herself. Space was a problem at the hotel because the rooms were notdesigned to have fourpeopleliving there.

Hotel Life

When they said the Sheraton ... I said great. 1 visualized room service, maid service, swimming pool, double beds, color TV and a private bath. Well, we got a private bath."

Rooms at the Sheraton and Holiday Inn were filled with seniors from Liberty University for the majority of the first semester They were waiting for the senior dorms to be finished Their waiting was less than the wonderful experience they had allenvisioned Rooms had four people apiece and bunkbeds. Extra closet space was provided by a bar and a few 2x4's.There were no TV's and no telephones fora month The pools were off limits

However, it was not as bad as itsounds.There was still all ofthe fun associated with dorm living in a relaxed atmosphere

Many seniors praised the freedom they had while living in the hotel.They compared itto living in an apartment.

Hotel living also provided a great deal of wonderful memories Seniors who spent a few months living there will never forget. It made their senior year more than just a senior year, ltwas the year of the hotels.

Hotel life was not without its luxuries. Millicent Cook puts her bagel in the microwave. The Sheraton provided room service forstudents who wanted it. However, most found it more economical to do their own cooking.

Light from a setting sun reflects offan upstairs window. Student cars filled the new parking lotas seniors filled their new dorm.

Seniors piled their cars with everything they owned and moved over to theirnew dorms. After three years, they finally had a room designed for two.

Senior quads are equipped witha fullsize stoveand refrigerator. Eight people shared the kitchen facilities.

ErnieGardnercarries his blankets into hisnew dorm.He wasapart ofthe first group to move in on Oct. 24,1988. The secondgroup moved on the weekend of Dec. 9.

InMovingThe day finally came. Senior dorms were ready. It was moving day

The firstgroup of90 started moving Monday, Oct. 24, 1988 Originally, before unavoidable construction problems,all seniors were to be in the new dorms by October 15 Problems with zoning and the sewer system delayed everything The last group moved just before the end of thefirst semester

Gate Race

Time — 11:21 p.m. We can make it — if we're lucky.

If we get a green light at the Wards Road light and greensalltheway past River Ridge ... and ifwe don'tget behind any grandma drivers . . . and there is not a lineatthegate ... we shouldn't have any trouble. On to Wards Road . . . heading toward the mall Green light at Krogers good The lightat Wendy's is red.Shucks.Start breaking . . . c'mon. There itgoes, green Hit the gas

Oh was that a cop? Am I speeding? No Good He's turning the other way.

There's a few cars at the light Can Iget into the turn lane? Yeah Go Stay green oh yellow? Can I make it?Have to ... go. No problem. Time — 11:26.

Keep going . . . you're going to make it. The light at the Ground Round is green . . . keep it at 45.Someone's coming off the expressway Do Iget over? No, he can wait

Green lights at River Ridge Up onto Candlcrs Mountain Road Change lanes Bring it up to 55 Go Time? 11:29 Ican make theGE corner at45 . . . well, maybe I betterslow to25.It's not that important Around the corner

Give it some gas Blinker Onto Libety Road Go Up over the hill Look,the lightis still blinkingyellow Almost there we're going to do it. Slow for the corner. Around the corner . . . onto the bridge

No! The light changes to red. It'sover. You've lost the gate race. You're late. Man! So close!

You slow and cross the bridge You and your passengers pull out your ID's So close

The guard steps out of the shack. You slow to a stop and roll down your window.

The guard smiles He enjoys this,you think "Close enough," he says

A Picnic In The Grass

The smell. Barbequed chicken and ribs. Hamburgers and hot dogs.They roast on thegrill.Ah,thesmell.

The line The plastic ware The styrofoam dishes The bugs. They're part oftheatmosphere. Great.

Friends inthegrass A festiveair People circulate from friend to friend The airisfull ofchatter Spectacular

The finalstroke.Icecream bars.Chocolate-Chocolate crunch. Ice cream sandwich Fudgecicle Orange crunch Delicious

It's a Marriott picnic. They callit a "pace changer." Students called it good fun.The fresh air.The grill. The laughter of friends A picnic in thegrass

After The Rain

There is a quietness after the rainhas stopped. It is stillness. It ispeace

The circle side of campus was rarely peaceful There was a basketball game inthe parking lot, frisbeeon the grassora touch football game inthe pig pen We had games oftag between brother/sister dorms, cars looking for a parking spot and joggers by the dozen

Everyone loved the circleside with itsfriends walking together and couples talking Itwas a place to meet anyone and everyone

And then,there was the rain We retreated to our dorms and looked out our windows The rain was now the activity outside Then it passed.

And a stillness was left. After the rain Peace and quiet

U.

Bump!

You need to see your advisor. You have an appointment at 11:20 He hates tardiness

For chapel, you selecta seat near the door The bleacher isuncomfortable, but you're close to the door. You're happy with yourself It should be easy to be on time

Chapel isdismissed Instantly,5000 bodies jump to theirfeet

Up you go Straight toward the door

Bump What's this? Hey, where did this line come from? Someone from behind givesyou a gentle push You,inturn,push the body in front of you Gentle giant football player turns and adresses you as "buddy."

"Sorry," you squeak. You look at your watch. 1 1:05. C'mon. You shuffle your feet ahead six inches Itisthe pace of the jam You look again at your watch 11:08 Good grief

Finally, you can see the door Two people in front ofyou seem to be enjoying themselves,talking like they are That isprobably the reason this line isso slow

"Be quiet and walk," you say to yourself

Time? 11:13 Well,you're almost there You can feelthe fresh air of the outside.The crowd starts to loosen.You start moving eight inches at a time Now, you can take full steps You're outside.

You look at your watch 11:17 You wonder ifyou can still make it You have to be on time This isthe building Open the door. Down the hall. His office ison the left.You walk quickly.

"Please," you whine quietly

The door's closed You knock

"May I help you?" The voice comes from behind You turn around. It's your advisor. He recognizes you. He looks at his watch

"Well," he says, "that was quite thelineout ofchapel.Thought I'd never get here on time Sorry 1 kept you waiting."

Sit In

The stars. The popcorn. The cokes. The blanket. The event The Car-Less Drive-In

The day was September 17, 1988 The tradition of the car-lesscontinued A crowd of500 studentsgathered on thegrass outside the gym. They watched Raiders of the Lost Ark, edited especially for Liberty.

"It was like everyone was in a giant living room," said Kim DeMerchant "You're not in chairs — you can lie around and talkand yell." She explained thattherelaxed atmosphere added a whole new dimension to the movie

Spirit

Sli p into my Liberty sweatshirt.Apply red make-up tothis side of my face .... Apply white to the other side .... Now, usethisblue put an L on therightcheek, and a U on the left.Looks great.Now, for the finishing touch — my red metalica wig Excellent What made usdo it? Certainly, dressing likea fooland wearing make-up was not our idea ofa good time.Yet,forcertain events throughout the year it was more than appropriate Itwas done in the spirit ofspirit.

Spiritwas thedrive insideofustoexpressour prideinLiberty. It said we believe in this institution We went out of our way trying toshow it. Spirit was a force to be reckoned with in 198889

And, why not? Our football team won eight games their bestseason since 1979 and our first asa Division I-AA team. Our basketball team also proved to be a contender during its season And the Liberty fans retained their unoffical titleas the best. The fans roared theirspirit. Spirit was more than a passing urge at Homecoming It was a year-round conviction.

Townies had more important things to worry about than theaverage student. For example, thedishes left in thesink and the money needed fora newtelevision stand.

Townies gathered behind the gym at Fast Break. Fast Break was known for its great shakes, quick food and stimulatingconversation with fellow town students.

Don' t you do it, young people!

The two girlswho sat next to me in Music Appreciation class need those famous words ofSumner Wemp shouted at them.

They were talking about meeting at Luey's Place after the basketball game.

Ithought itwas a sleazy bar downtown on Fifth St.

I found out it's actually the cafeteria after 8 p.m.

I'm so out of it.

I exist in a world far removed from the normal 18-to22-year-old LU student I'm a married town student — and an old one at that.

When Iwas issued my draft card as a senior in high school, theclassof 1993 was fiveyears old.

To them, Vietnam isancient history — the last war men-

Townie Thoughts

tioned in history

A couple of days ago, Isat among the chatter in the crowded DeMoss Learning Center A couple of guys were talking about Liberty's great hockey team

We have a hockey team?

My mind was on more important matters Iwondered if my wife would forgive me for forgetting to put out the garbage that morning

Quite a contrast from what was on the mind of the guy seated next to me. He was trying to convince an out-ofdress-code, mini-skirted coed to accompany him to Liberty's premier showing of "Chitty Chitty Bang Bang."

She didn't look the Walt Disney Type

But if we ever hold a Madonna look-alike contest, this girl definitely has my vote.

The discussion going on all around me seemed so trivial. I was pondering whether or not it'stime to start potty-training my son

A guy and a girl standing near me were making an attempt to hold hands. They didn't know how

I buried my head in a textbook to hide my laughter.

The ways of romance will eventually be learned at Liberty

But I shouldn't have laughed I'm the one who is really out of it. I don't even own any ofthose multi-colored shoe strings everybody wears to keep those goofy-looking sunglasses from falling off their face

I took a walk to the only place I know ofwhere old folks at Liberty gather — The Fast Break Lounge.

There I found solace with other students of like disposition All liveoffcampus Most are married And all agree the Fast Break milk shakes are worth the buck charged for them

As I "lounged" on a cracked plastic chair at a wobbly, crumb-laden table,Istruck up a conversation with a Missions major from Massachusetts.

He's one of those that God surprises with a call latein life

His age was difficult to determine.

Over steamy chili laced with tobasco sauce, we discussed politics. He lamented over his vote for Kennedy

"You voted forTed for Senator?" Iasked, shocked

"No, John for President!"

Wow! I'm not so old and out of itafterall!

I t had sounded so easy

They told meIwould have five or six guys in ahalfhour prayer group each Monday. All1 had todo was sharea littlesomething from theBible, take prayer requests and lead inprayer.

Now, here I was,surrounded by five guys who looked as if they could notpossibly care lessabout what I might say All of my plans evaporated into thinairas Ilooked around the group

After a short, blundering prayer and a round of typical introductions,I asked forprayer requests. Silence wasfollowed by a fewgeneralities.

Then,one guy spoke up,asking us to remember hisunsaved parents The wall was broken

Soon,every guy in the room was sharing a concern foran unsaved loved oneor friend We had found a commom ground of need,amutual concern to draw us as individuals intoone group.Prayer was now a tangible thing inwhich allof us could find comfort and hope.

Our time passed quickly I led in a closing prayer Although itwas notfilled with "thee's"and "thou's,"itwasa prayer from the heart. W esix became one. This was a real prayer group

Y o u reach intheclosetto pullout asweater It is the straw that breaks the camel's back. Everything cascades out ofthe closet onto the floor.You kick at the pile in disgust andwish for more space in the room

You turn and look at the cramped room All of the bed posts have coats hanging from them There is somuch stuff under your roommate's bed, it doesn't fit anymore. You can almost see the chair under a pile of dirty clothes.This was

home?

Rooms reflected the individuals who lived in them. Some rooms had every item neatlyin its place Occupants of others considered itagood day when they found the desk top under the junk

But rooms went beyond the physical place and the physical condition They were more than the places we slept and piled ourlaundry. They provided thearena where we made lasting friendships and built memories of the year.

could find wrong Ifwe saw it, thenwe would deal with it. We were not going to close our eyesand say,"Idon't seethis."

Studentswere toldwhat school policies were They received a "Liberty Way" which they were to read. They were informed Really, it'sthe supervisor who determines the reps and discipline;all we do isreport what we see

Ifwe saw something, thenit was our responsibility to take care of it.But by the same token,we were given the responsibilitysimply because we were not digging around in their rooms.We were not spying on them every five minutes, knocking on their door to see what music they were listening to Students had a lot of freedom in the sense that we did not hover over them every single second to find out what

they were doing We really did not try to invade their privacy. Yet, if there was some question,we had to deal with it

Q: What is your opinion of the honor code?

A: I thinkthehonor code isa really good idea,but it wasdifficult because of peers It was hard forsome people to tellon their friends or someone they lived with Ithink itwas very

hard for freshmen especially because they wanted to be accepted.They wanted tobe part of a group.

I don't think that every student lived by the honor code .. . but, Ithink itwas a good idea If it were carried out,I think itwould be of benefit to the school

Q: You had toknow that being an RA would be verydiffi-

cult What made you decide to try out?

A: Firstofall,Ihad a really good RA who really made me want to follow her example. I also thought this would be a good experience for my major I would be working with students,helping when they had a problem

The y said it would be easy.

"Put your clothes in thelaundry machine,add soap and slip in your tickets. Then youputyour things inthedryer, and you're done."

And, that's exactly what I did

The problem was,Idid not understand why my white pantsturned pink and my underwear blue. Nor did I have anyideawhy my machine bubbled over and what all those switches were for.

Why would Icare ifthewater was hot, warm or cold? And, how do you tell if the thingsinthedryer are"permanent press"or "delicate?"

Students' initialfear,apathy and ignorance about doing laundry was quickly replaced. They soon learned Mom simplywasnotavailable.They set out to learn the rights and wrongs Regular practice sessionsallowed them to sharpen theirskills Laundry eventually became less of a major chore and more ofaroutine and part ofthelifewe lived

Separating her whites and colors, KellyCraddock loads her washing machine. Separateloads for separate colors wasa lesson many learned the hard way.

Glen Jackson pulls his blue jeans from the washerand placesthem inhis basket. Each studenthad hisown way of bringing clothes from the washers to the dryers — from puttingit ina baskettotrying tocarry it.

ROW:

Finding a parking space over the year was comparable to finding a needleina haystack orachieving a 4.0 GPA Not that the entire situation was hopeless, but it neared impossibility at times No one could find a spot to park.

Dorm students, especially those on the circle side, found they had to adjust to half-mile walksacrosscampus when they were unable to find parking near their dorms

Town students had to hike from the back of the lot they called "Egypt" because of its location and inconvenience.

Faculty and administrators also dealt with the problem They needed patience tolocate a spot not taken by an inconsiderate dorm student who didn't feel like walking. They could sympathize with the town student, as, on certain days, they too hiked from "Egypt" to theirclasses

Resolutions remained as complex as the problem itself. Security ticketed, people arrived earlier and the school looked for some place to put a new parking lot But itwas to no avail. Parking problems persisted for the whole year

Staying in Line

Ge t in the car and go. It is an American pastime. It is a personal freedom open to allthat prove they can handle the responsibility.

Only if it was so easy Assuming you had a car on campus oraccess toone, justgoing was neversimple Campustraffic was a problem that everyone faced and dealt with.

The problem was simple Too many people had to use the only campus entrance and exit at the same time The entire situation was complicated

The line to get offthecampus reaches back tothecircle side of campus. The line, close to a mile longand close to a half-hour wait,triedthe patience of drivers.

by traffic from the GE plant and a handful of poor drivers

Itresulted in long,snail-paced linesthatcrawled,that inched, off campus

An immediate resolution was sought — another entrance,direct access to theexpress way — but never found. For now,drivers simply had to learn todeal with the situation and plan accordingly.

Boom. The sound is followed by the tinkling of glass Nope, guess you couldn't stop that fast Passenger check — everone'sok. Other guy check — seems angry. You get out of the car. It's true. You hurt his car. Bad. Your own isn't looking too hot either

Clink You dropped it You didn't even know what itwas A black thing you yanked from the guts of the engine. You thought that fixing it yourself would be easierand cheaper.If you could only find that problem and fix the new ones you've created.

Crunch Oh, no, it slipped out of "park." It's in the ravine. It is upside down. Not good. It isa friend's car. You hope he's an understanding friend.You kick atthe dirt and mumble

There were all kinds of car troubles throughout the year. Cars that turned over,smashed other cars and some that just called it quits.Troubles were a part of the car and part of the livesof students who had them on campus

Putting thePieces Together

Texture inabundance layallaround the Liberty campus. Bricks andivy, cement and fallen leaves, stones and mortar, cactus leaves and pine needles, the blades ofgrassand stone benches created background for students on their way to class.

Rough , orange bricks. Smooth marble steps Prickly cactus leaves.

Rough, weather beaten cement Fine,pointed needles of the trees Glossy, twisting ivy Crisp, delicate golden leaves

Thick red mud Quiet, glassy puddles. Cold metal rails. Rough wooden stairs crossing the ravine.

Little pieces of campus

They went unnoticed Most students saw only buildings and sidewalks

Seen or unseen they held the earth, interweaving into tapestries, creating little works of art.

The pieces,the textures,the students Every one contributed to what the university was Every little piece became part of the Liberty University landscape.

their Mom

A s we began theyear,we welcomed 73 smiling faces ready to make it best year ever. After and Dad unloaded the U-Haul and said their goodbyes,friendsand memories began to form

With an emphasis on unity.

Dorm 26-3 became a close hall. Closeness that was developed through conflict. Conflicts like

roommates on the hall phone until 2 a.m The delightful sound of the 6 a.m hairdryer

The sweet memory of the peanut butter and jelly sandwich left under your bed for two weeks.

Even though things got on our nervessometimes,we made our way through the rough times — together.The encouraging word and smile from a

friend brightened the worst of days Someone, it seemed,always cared.

Looking back,itwas a great year. Many things in our lives changed, allowing us each to grow It was the growing experiences that left us stronger and closer.

Dorms 27-1 & 27-2

I t was truly amazing what a few flakes ofsnow could do to the Liberty campus Every well-mannered, upstanding young champion underwent a change of heart and different, wild things started happening

Students shed books and dress clothes for jeans and gloves They left homework to be done at some later time. They changed any plans they had and headed fora romp in the cold white stuff

Football games and snowball fights littered the campus. Everyone joined in, although not always voluntarily A new attitude prevailed and students concentrated solelyon enjoying themselves

Lynchburg snow was a rare event. For northerns, it was a disappointment. For southerners, it was a surprise For some northerns, it was asurprisetodiscoverthat some southerners were experiencing snow for their first time

But, for all, it was something different — a change of pace and a memory of one afternoon in December

The range of the emotions we experiencedthis yearaswe putthebook togetheris vast There was stress, love, tears and laughter The memories of thisedition go beyond what it captures and,fortheyearbook staff, extends into what we each experienced.

For publications coordinator, Dennis Fields, thiswas a lot of last-minute work On behalf of the yearbook staff and myself, I offerour thanks.And ourapologies. Sometimes our ideological, we-canchange-the-world attitudeblinded us from reality

Forouradvisors, thiswas an alternating nightmare and dream. They tried to keep pace with our "progressive" technology Sometimes, the independence of the staff was a help. Sometimes a hindrance. To them,Iextend my heart-felt appreciation fortheirsupport and help.For myself, this was a projectofInfinity and Jelly Doughnuts;dreams and realities It is the only way Ican explain why I did the thingsI did lt was a project inwhich Ihad torely on others to help me get through. I know my parents still shake their heads and wonder Iknow my staff, despite theirinsight, still wonders. The truth is, I still wonder.

For photo editor Kim DeMerchant, this was the mountain and the valley of her

senior year It made her cope with stress and pressurethatfew ofuswillever know A good cry was hersolution.Itopened the emotional flood gates and allowed her to continue atthe task.My eternal gratitude goes out to her.

For lab tech Jody Barker, this was an unchartered world.Somewhere we allhad to draw a line between ourselves and the yearbook Forourfavorite, laid-back West Virginian, thispresented hisgreatestchallenge Iappreciated his effort, regardless His all-nightersand personal sacrificewill long be remembered.

For photographer Steve Green,thiswas

an adventure. A compulsive class-cutter, he struggled with a new responsibility where many people relied on him He, working on hismaster'sdegree in counseling,was definitely an asset to the staffas he had a psudeo-internship as yearbook counselor.Despite hislatestart, I appreciateall ofhis work on thesportssection and acknowledge the fact it wouldn't have been the same without him.

For therestofthestaff, this wasalearning experience.The fact remains — to be involved took a degree ofself-motivation. The work involved trimmed the original staffdown toa handful.But to those who stuck itout, thanks I will always wonder why we all went through this and ifithas any bearing on who we areand willbecome Itis doubtful that it cannot but have changed ourlives.

For you,thereader and final judge, this isanother yearbook Itisn'tanything like theones you've had inthe pastorthe ones you may receive in the future Itis yours, despite the claim the staff makes to it I hope you enjoy it fornow and theyearsto come And, I thank you, for you are the ultimate reason for Selah 1989.

Closing

Infinity is every dream. Infinity is every hope.Infinity isevery aspiration. Itisthe faith placed in a sovereign God. Itisthe intangible aspect ofstudent life. It is everythingthatgoes into athletics, butis not seen on theplayingfield. It is thevast arrayofpeople thatmake Liberty University more than an institutionof higher learning. Itis the call of the young champion.

Jelly doughnuts are therealities ofour lives. They are the wrinkled sheets, thelong lines and the empty mail boxes. They are the items of life we overlook. They arethepens,theshoesand theringofthealarm.

They arethe foodwe select for breakfast every morning. The arethethings reminding us we are only human.

1988-89was ayear to define the boundaries ofour lives — Infinity and JellyDoughnuts. We reached for the sky and knew ourfeet were still firmly planted on this earth. We looked to the only one who knew everything and He provided thestrength, endurance and hope on an individual basis. Itis ayearnot to beforgotten.

Infinity and Jelly Doughnuts.
