Progress Is Noted In rRight Direction'

Have you noticed anything new about the Union lately? It 's being painted . Everywhere you look there is a different color, and a much brighter place it is. We've also been to ld by informed sources within the Pio neer Center complex that new tables and chairs are due to ar· rive soon. We thank those responsible for their efforts in helping us have a more enjoyable place of recreation.

Ano ther thank you goes to the ad hoc committee that has been actively and sometimes heatedly studying our cut system. We see this week that they have proposed a new policy leaving the burden o n the individual instructor with a good safety valve in the appea l after what the instructor considers excessive absences. We ho pe that the College Council will adopt this proposal. It would be a big step in the right

directio n for GSC. We like to see things going " in the right direction." Some new

ideas are more slowly adopted than others but with firm convictio n and a little optimism, we will see the reforms we desire.

Christianity Testimonials Given Via Radio Broadcasts On Sunday

Dear Editor : Have you ever wondered what Chr istianity is aU about? We talk about God

a lo t in English and history classes. Yes, we've read about the Crusades of long ago and everyone has heard Bible stor ies, especiaJiy the one about the birth of Jesus Christ . Why everyone knows about that - that's why we celebrate Christ· mas ... .isn't it? Yeah, those were good stor;es, but they're allm the past. All the so-called miracles and marvels arc long gone. I have wondered about it but never really understood ChriStianity. Church is okay but usua!Jy kind of boring. So for our world today, what's this "old sturr• about?

If you have had any of these last few tho ughts, this is especially for you. In the middle of our, sometimes, chaotic world , there is a power stiU able to change men's Jives and give them a purpose for living. Yes, believe it or not, lhill power, Jesus Christ i.s alive in the hearts or all who have accepted him as their Saviour. Don' t believe me, huh? Well, some of the students on the CSC campus who know this is true want to teU you about our lives with Christ. It won't cost you anything but a few minutes of your time. Each Sunday evening, when it is possible to do so, a student or perhaps a facu lty member wiiJ be- not preaching, but telling what Chric;t has done for them and what he'll do for you. T h1sshort broadcast will begin approximately 10 p.m. this Sunday night, March 28, 1971. If you would like to hear about the reality of the man you merely knew died on a cross, Listen! We're not a bunch of spintual giants and don't claim to be. We just want to share the "Good News" w 1th you .
