Time: the college year was composed of it, our lives were shaped by it. The year was time itself; a time of preparation, a time of learning, a time of involvement. How one used the time made up the basic concept of the individual. From all parts of the world more than 2700 students came to the small town of Searcy for one united purpose; that being, Harding College. The year began with the usual renewing of old acquaintances and the beginning of others. Individuality was apparent in all, yet the unique situation of a Christian college brought the need to conform in certain areas. Those new to college life evaluated their preconceived ideas of what was expected while goals were set which hopefully wou d be achieved. Each student was called upon to mature in various ways. To many the reality and purpose of life was discovered as the year evolved into memories of a time past; a time when decisions had to be made and responsibilities accepted. Not only was classroom knowledge an important aspect of the maturing process, but college life's practical lessons proved to be invaluable in the molding of a complete education. INTRODUCTION - 5
