4 Jame, A. Atkinson. Dean of Students Dedication A warm philosophy of life ... an interest in anything which the student is interested ... talents that demand appreciation . .. a life devoted to God and the cause of Christian education ... and excellence in friendship characterize Jim Atkinson, Dean of Students. Busy? Extremely, but never too busy to help students in any way possible. Having sponsored the class for three years, your sensitive counsel, expressed with animated humor, has guided Harding students and won for you their regard. There is no tribute great enough to mark our appreciation for the contributions you have made toward improving life on our campus. It is with respect and gratitude that we - the class of 1958 -dedicate the 1958 Petit Jean to you, Jim Atkinson.
Having grown up and been educated at Abilene, Texas ... and having mastered the round, pearshaped tones of the prolessional radio man during four years with a Lubbock, Texas, radio station ... Jim Atkinson left the plains of West Texas to become Field Representative for Harding College. Because of his ability and perseverance, he was soon proIUoted to Director of the Personnel Office and next to Dean of Students. His work requires many hours and much "midnight oil" which he gives unselfishly. A master of verbal brilliance, Dean Atkinson will not only be remembered for his fairness as an administrator but also for his mercurial mind ... his nimble tongue ... the rapier thrust of his verbal retorts and puns ... and his jocular personality: The Atkinsons meet visiting delegates at the Council Conference. Mr. Atkinson adds sparkle to chapel with his doily announcements. He reloxes with his two favorite peopJe--" Kitty," his wife, and his son · ·Scotty." Perple)(ed? No, iust excited at the game.

H a rding College was founded thirty-four years ago in order to educa te students in an atmosphere of Christi anity. This is that something which surpasses mere buildings, labora tories, books, and training fac iliti es. Every phase of life - with an accent on the spiritual - r eceives attention at Harding. Tlw teachers a im to lay the foundations for building SlI ccpss flll lives that are guided by the knowledge tlf iI II igher Ile ing and His commandments. Chri stian in struction is found in our worship and fellowship, in our part-time jobs, in our classes, and in our co-curricular activities - providing us with in spiration and a challenge. The general educa tion program, an integrated course of study, is designed to increase our intellectual' perspective and to help us see the inter -relation of various areas of knowledge. Perhaps the greatest instruction we receive is that gained for us by our Christian association . Vls dmg spea kers such as Marshall Keeble broadened our oUll oo ks .

Music is an integral part of ll a rdin g, a nd singi ng late in the evening around the fi shpono or in the Studen t Center is always a source of enjoyment. The hou rs spent in the Inn leave many unforgetta hl e "s pecial memories." A major source of recreation is our social clubs that provide us with parties, stag outings, banquets, spring out ings, and keen comp('tition in activities among clubs.

BasebaU reigns as king during the spring. • • • In Physical Development Believing that a physically fit body should accompany an alert, inquisitive mind, the faculty at Harding has constructed a well-rounded program of physical activities. New this year is an intercollegiate sports program. In addition to this, fully ninety per cent of the students, girls and boys, participate in a carefully organized intramural program, which features both individual and group competitive sports. Archery, base-running, track, football, volleyball, and rope-climbing are a few examples, and basketball still remains king among sports. Competition is also staged in tournaments among classes and clubs. Some of the most enjoyable hours of our life at Harding are spent in the gymnasium or out on one of our ball fields. Basketball is just ane sport sponsored by the WRA.
Both fun ond work go on behind dining holl serving counters . And In Service To Others In His Word, Christ taught that he who would be greatest must be the servant of others. We learn to serve through teaching, preaching, and Christian living. Many young men preach on Sundays in communities near Searcy. Each Sunday afternoon a group of students hold worship services for the people at the county farm. Others learn sign language in order to teach the deaf - making frequent trips to the Deaf School at Little Rock. Harding is filled with organizations that offer students an opportunity to serve. The Bison and Petit Jean relate the news and record our memories. Musical organizations provide entertainment, sing for funerals and weddings, and give programs to advance the interests of the college. The student council promotes campus activities, and the big sisters aid new girls in adjusting to college life. It takes a week but the Bi 50n serves us o big variety - Petry to Humphrey .

Scholar, athlete, and lover of fun ... this is the man who so adequately serves as vice-president of Harding College and as dean of' the School of American Studies. Student activitIes are his chief concern, and his personal touch with students is amazing. As a faculty sportsman, spe'tator, host, or professor, he is an outSf41nding person doing an outstanding work. "Your attention, please, to these announcements" introduces every student to Jim Atkinson, dean of Students ... Ah, the dynamic intellect that is his ... a combination of dignity, wisdom, and wit that presents the student body with a standard to be desired. His constant fervor in forwarding student activities brings him even closer to the students. "To be or not to be, that is the question," and Dean L. C. Scars can help you decide.

I CLASSES Classes at Harding . . . educational facilities and life in the dormitories ... the college seeks'to develop in its students a philosophy of life, wisdom and knowledge ... training that will help them serve themselves and mankind.
Fascinated students listen as Dr. Pryor describes outer space in tnis PnysicaJ Science don. Classes Gave Preparation From an humble beginning in 1924 with approximately 77 students, Harding College has developed into a promising young liberal arts college with 1000 students and extension work in Little Rock, Arkansas, and Memphis, Tennessee. We came from 42 states ... with different backgrounds ... different ways of talking ... for different· purposes . . . but we came because we knew Harding was interested in advancing the kind of Christian education that would enable the individual to live a more useful and satisfying life. Dedicated to building a philosophy of life upon a foundation of Christian ideals, Harding's curriculum was organized to give students adequate preparation for a chosen vocation or profession and to provide for all students intellectual, social, and spiritual development. Because of the complex circumstances of our time, the GENERAL EDUCATION program was designed to create wholesome attitudes toward the world, to develop fundamental skills ,and to give students basic understandings, and furnish a broad foundation of knowledge for advanced level courses. Basic in the program is the required Bible class each semester. Harding offers work in SEVENTEEN DEPARTMENTS: art; Bible, religion and philosophy; biological science; business and economics; education; English and humanities; foreign languages; With time only for quick greetings friends hurry to meet classes, appointments or committee meetings. lob hours poss soon os students become involved in biological problems.
And Skills general science; history and social science; home economics; journalism; mathematics; music; physical education; physical science; psychology; and speech. For those students with a choice of a profession for which there is no departmental major, special fields of concentration may be arranged. The SCHOOL OF AMERICAN STUDIES offers specialized training in the following fields of learning: accounting, business, economics, history, government, secretarial science and education. To supplement the curriculum of the college seminar discussions are scheduled, guest lecturers of recognized authority arc invited, and extended tours are arranged. The dean is Dr. Clifton L. Ganus, Jr. Expanding facilities, curriculum, and faculty have enabled Harding to increase the number of DEGREES OFFERED. In addition to the Bachelor of Arts and Bachelor of Science degrees, she now confers the Master of Arts degree in Bible and Religion, the Master of Religious Erluration negree, and the Master of Arts in Teaching degree. In addition to achieving a satisfactory scholastic record, the candidate for any degree must be of good moral character. Closely related to the graduate department is the extension program under which classes in Bible and related fields are conducted in Memphis and Little Rock. 35 After Chopel begins the ru~h to check mail. grab a doughnut and make thot nex' closs before roll call. Nearing semester f inals, students in Prof . Sime' $ Bible class take noh!s frantically. These students find that the ir speech class con be entertain ing as well as instruct ional. Art classes seem more like ploy to these Ho rd ing ites .
"Every day" is the way Harding's new students are introduced to the Bible program. Tuesday through Friday various teachers instruct in the freshman survey courses, but Saturday brings a special treat as all gather in the large auditorium for instruction by Dr. Benson. Sophomores take a year sequence on the New Testament church and Christian living. Upperclassmen choose from a wide variety of offerings. They note the special challenge of Dr. Jack Lewis' course in church history, Andy Ritchie's class in mission studies, Dr. J. D. Bales' course in Christian evidences, text classes by Sime, Hays, and McRay, and Greek by Burke and West. Classes meet in almost every building on the campus, but students and professors alike look forward to the construction of a "home" for the Bible department. Emphasis is placed on a high quality of instruction and the lessons learned permeate every facet of campus life and give students greater goals for Christian growth and service.

--" .. ,. Bishops and ministers hear of plans for Magic Volley Christian College. Strengthened By Lectureship "The New Life in Christ" was the theme for the 34th annual fall lectureship. The series of lectures was attended by 2,000 guests, four hundred of whom were housed in dormitory rooms and in homes of faculty members and other town residents. The highlights of the lectureship week, in addition to the close fellowship, were outstanding speeches, panel discussions, daily Bible classes and choral presentations. Thanksgiving day, with a huge barbecue for all, signified the end of the lectures with concluding addresses by Otis Gatewood and Marshall Keeble. Or. Welt, chairman of the lectureship committee. outlines the next day's program and activities. Many old grads join in on Alumni Coffee Hour during the lectureship w"k
Thirst For Knowledge Drives Us Onward The continuous, detailed research for thesis material ... long, eye-weary hours laboring over papers and projects ... more long, eye-weary hours in small groups ... the endless rook tournaments - quite a contrast, but typical of the resident graduate student. His program is one of intensive study to equip him better in his chosen area of concentration, but he often finds welcome relaxation in those rook games, intramural sports, and other activities. The Harding graduate student may prepare for the M.A. or M.R.E. degree in Bible and Religious Education or the M.A. degree in Education. The M.A. candidate in Bible may choose from the Biblical, Historical, Doctrinal or Practical field of advanced studies. The M. R.E. aspirant is required to obtain a minimum of two years of graduate study. This work is specifically designed for future Bible teachers, Church Education Program directors, gospel preachers and others interested in the religious education area. Extension courses are offered one hundred miles away for those interested, in the Memphis area. Plans are now in process for offering the B.S.L. de- /Vee at the School of Bible and Religion in Memphis. Graduates interested in advanced work in education receive instruction toward their Master of Arts in Teaching degree in the field of Elementary Teaching, Secondary Teaching, or Educational Leadership.
