1982-1983 Yearbook

210/Students Division Students are to Harding what Christians are to the church. Just as there are many members in one body, each with his own talents and function, many individuals with varying roles comprise the student body. Students filled many roles as they worked together for the student body. On an individual basis and in clubs and organizations, students met the needs of people. They met their own needs as they interacted with others, gaining love and security in knowing that they were important to oth~r people. They met the needs of others by giving their time to spend with people, both fellow students on campus and residents of Searcy. As they worked they built the bonds of friendship that would come to be important later, when they prepared to leave Harding to go on to other places and people. These bonds that were forged were deposited against the time when life on the campus would be a memory, when looking back would bring remembrances of people whose friendship would not be lost merely because of separation. While they were still on campus, students did what their name stated. They attended classes, worked in labs, read in the library, debugged programs, served internships in hospitals and schools, and performed all the myriad academic duties that the life of a student demanded. That this was carried on by the same people who were busy with their social, moral, and civic development would be hard to believe if the students had stopped to think about it. Stopping was a part of being a student in one sense, yet students never completely stopped developing. They stopped during each class day to remember their Creator in a chapel devotional; they stopped to acknowledge and respond to the impact of others in their lives; they stopped to appreciate the beauty on the campus and beyond. They never stopped functioning completely; they were always carrying out some role in the student body and in the larger body of believers. Students for now within the body that is Harding, these people worked to develop the understanding that would take them to higher levels of I ife in the larger body.~ - Michael Corrigan Students Editor Students Includes Seniors 212 Juniors 234 Sophomores 244 Freshmen 254 Second Semester Students 266 Christian Communications :>rogram 268 Graduate Students 269 "
