The HAPPY THANKSGIVING FROM ALL OF US!! 8ANNE Vol. XXVII Issue < Favmore. stay cool California Baptist College Nov. 16,1984 New Trustee Decisions Affect Students The board of trustees of California Baptist College met Nov. 2 and 3 in the A.J. Staples room here at CBC. Major action taken included the addition of an intercollegiate soccer team, a nonvoting student representative to the trustees (to be detailed in the February meeting), a tuition increase, and a plan to air-condition the main building. Newly inaugurated president, Dr. Russell R. Tuck, gave a brief report to the board. Tuck stated his appreciation for the trustees. "It's nice to know they're there, not breathing down your neck, but they're there to help." The Student Life committee, chaired by Monroe Broadway, brought their recommendations before the board. A Pastor Scholarship of $1,000. dollars will be given to California Baptist churches. This scholarship will be given to one new CBC student from that church according to the pastor's discretion. Secondly, a soccer team will be added as early as Fall of 1985. Aisp recommended to the board was a non-voting student trustee. All three recommendations were passed unanimously. The Academic Affairs Committee brought several recommendations to the board. Dr. Richard Mobley and Daniel Skubik have been employed as Asst. Professors of Religion and Political Science respectively. Dr. David Music has been granted tenure, and Dr. George Musacchio has been granted a one semester sabatical for fall of 1985. The Public Affairs Committee brought many recommendations to the attention of the board. One recommendation was to authorize the expenditure of approximately $40,000 of Bold Venture funds for air-conditioning the main areas of the^campus. This recommendation passed unanimously. Tom Hixson was elected as Vice President for Business Affairs and an additional $25,000 over the already approved $35,000 dollars was added to roof the dorms. Also under jurisdiction of the Public Affairs Committee was a recommendation to raise tuition to $149 per up to 13 units and increase room and board by 6.5%. Apartment rental will go up by 10%. This motion was debated by board members, students, and faculty for over 20 minutes before passing by a 10-6 margin. Dr. Tuck, who was in favor of the increase, said that he felt that our tuition could be raised and still be one of the least expensive private schools in the area. Tuck also stated that if we wanted better programs, it would take more money. He does feel, however, that students should get the quality they are paying for. Service Awards were given to trustees who would be rotating off the board after this meeting. These members were Monroe Broadway, Michael - Prince, Oscar Serrania, Ellen Cosby, and Wilbur Nuckolls. The board voted unanimously to re-elect Dr. James Morton as Chairman of the board. The trustees will meet again in early February of 1985. Wilbur Nuckolls bids farewell to trustees See Page 2 Lebanon Remembered One Year Later by Scott W. Norman A little over a year ago, tragedy struck for the U.S. Marines. Well over 200 Americans were killed when a terrorist group bombed the USMC Headquarters in Lebanon. It was a sad day, but it was a long way from here. Or was it? One CBC student remembers it because he was there. Sargeant William "Bill" Butman, freshman at CBC, remembers it well. Butman is age 22. Many students are that age or near. It could have been me; It could have been you. "We left the compound early that morning. I was with a platoon of engineers, we went out to sweep the road for mines," said Butman. Twenty minutes later, in less time than many of us get ready for class, tragedy struck. "I heard an explosion and looked around to see a cloud of smoke. My first words were 'Oh my God'." At first, no one in the platoon knew what had happened. Then, three minutes later, the call came. "When I heard, I felt pain and anguish. You can never fully understand what goes through the mind of a soldier when something like this happens. I thought about the parents of the dead, about what the media would do with all this,...and I thought about the five friends that I had just lost." Butman's platoon held their position. Later, around midday, half of the platoon went back to help clean up and search for survivors. It was 3 p.m. before Butman returned to what had been USMC Headquarters. He returned to crumbled ruins, battered bodies, and shattered hopes. The Marines have withdrawn from Lebanon now. Butman is a student, and this particular ordeal is over; but not forgotten. On Oct. 23, the one year anniversary of the bombing, the nation mourned it's loss. And at 12 noon, while most of the students were eating or complaining about their lunch, Sgt. William Butman played "Taps" for his fallen comrades and friends. Pillar Shines Students cheered to the voice of Michele Pillar at her Nov. 9 concert in CBC's Van Dyne Field House. About 950 listeners were in attendance. This figure is below the expected number, but ASB officials were pleased with the response from the community. The performance began with a few songs from "Access". An audience favorite was "Did Anyone Tell You 'I Love You' today?" Next, Michele Pillar took the stage. She sang with energy that swept through the audience. At one point she shouted, "I'm really having a great time singing my heart out for the Lord!" The audience responded with explosive cheers and applause. Later in the concert, Pillar gave her testimony. She told of how she accepted Christ at the age of 17 and how Christ has been with her, guiding, I See Page 2
