Oh come, Let us worship and bow down; Let us kneel before Jehovah our Maker. - PSALM 95:6 Man reaches the mountain top of human experience in periods of genuine worship. Through Bible classes studen ts learn more about God; through chapel devotionals. even ing vespers, and congregat ional worship they are drawn closer to God; and through personal evangelism classes, mission study groups. and daily association with dedicated Christians they. are inspired to give their l ives in service to God. Religion becomes to mean more than weekly worsh ip. It becomes a way of l ife by which happiness in its fullest sense may be obtained . These great spiritual experiences in college w ill be a source of strength in the years that follow.

The administration, fa culty and staff are sim il ar to the artist in that they, too, must have an idea of what they wish to accomplish. They are directors of tJ,e Harding mosa ic.
