When Melanie McMillen visited my hometown with the A Cappella choir, I was a junior in high school. She and two other girls stayed at my house in Paducah, KY. When I saw her at an organizational meeting for the college newspaper, I only wanted to tell her that I remembered her. Little did I know that she was the editor of the 1981 Petit Jean and in three years I would be an editor, too. lowe the first of many thank you 's to Melanie. Right behind Melanie are Susan Pryor and Jay Simpson. I don't believe any other editor has had three greater teachers than I have had. They were all ideal leaders, students, and Christians. Their encouraging letters and phone calls helped me to get through the tough times this year. Petit Jean editors have a tradition that the departing editor leaves the incoming editor a letter on the glass tray in the desk drawer. In my letter from Jay he said, "...remember that your staff is made up of your peers be their leader but also be their servant." I tried to keep this goal throughout the production of the book. In my personal notes, I also want to mention my roomate, Beth Wineman. For three years. Beth put up with PJ after PJ, listening to my complaints and sharing my triumphs. She will always hold a special place in my heart and I will remember her as a sister I never had. I cannot begin to write the things I have learned this year. Time has passed so quickly but it did not take my memories of this great staff. They have persevered through hard times and continuall y promised to themselves that they would save their grades later . They have put their very best into this book. They have enriched my life with their smiles. I hope that in some small way, I might have filled a place in their hearts as well. My biggest "thank you" goes to Dr. Joe Pryor. His confidence in me to take on this project means more to me that any words could express. I will always hold him in the highest regard and his memory will go with me throughout my life. To my parents and John I can only say "thank you and I love you." Their encouragement. understanding. care, and constant prayers for me have been more than I could ever hope to return to them. '1 hope that this book will be one of the precious treasures of Harding that each one takes when he leaves here. It is published for the purpose of preserving memories and opening the doors to other memories. Wherever you go in life, remember this year. Remember the struggles. the work. the laughter, and the victory. And when you go through new phases of life remember the way you spent 1984, putting the pieces together. - Suzanne R. Johnston , Editor
