The BANNER Vol. XXVIII Issue 11 California Baptist College March 2, 1984 Students voice opinion The best way to run a government, a business, or even a school is to keep in touch with the people. When the leaders fail to communicate with the people, then the people must go to the leaders. This is what we at the BANNER are attempting to do. Since the trustee meeting at the beginning of February, there has been talk of many! changes at CBC, including the enforcement of mandatory chapel. And since the trustees decided it wasn't necessary to ask the students how they felt, we (the BANNER) decided to survey the students. Over the past two weeks, a survey was conducted of about one-third of the student body of CBC. Approximately 200 peo- ple^were-asked-ifthey were for or against mandatory and why. The survey came out over two-to-one against a mandatory chapel. Many students said that it would create havoc for those who wanted to attend and that many of them would use the time to do homework or read a paper. Some of the comments against mandatory chapel are: "It should be left up to the students. We're not children anymore." "I like going to chapel, but I do not like to be forced to do things." "My parents don't make me go to church when I'm home. I| go because I want to." Some of the comments for mandatory chapel are: "If students are required to go, then they will voice an opi nion about the quality of chapel" "I like the idea." ''If freshmen and sophomores go, then they will continue to when they are older, There is also a concern that, although chapel has been made mandatory, it has not been provided for. There is no seating, no sound system and no one to come up with adequate programming. "The system as it is for next fall is sloppy and ludicrous. It will only divide the campus, not unite it," stated one student. As another student put it, Let's face it, the quality of the chapels is bad." 1984 Homecoming Court The coronation of our newest Homecoming Queen, Edith Duffey, was witnessed by the fans at half-time of the 1984 Homecoming basketball game on Saturday, February 18th. The half-time festivities began with the introduction of the class princesses. The lights dimmed and a spotlight followed each young lady as they descended the stairway to the gym. Gina Merriam represented the Freshmen class. Tara Sparks was chosen by the Sophomore class and Jeannine Johnson represented the Junior class. Each nominee, with her escort at her side, entered and walked along a pathway of white to the center of the gym. A short biography with each candidate's interests, activities and future plans was read. Slides of each nominee ranging from baby pictures to present day portraits were shown. Karen Jungers, 1983's Homecoming Queen, entered last, escorted by the chancellor of California Baptist College, Dr. James Staples. When everyone was in place, the new Queen was named. Edith Duffey was crowned by Miss Jungers as the 1984 Homecoming Queen. Miss Duffey, Homecoming Oueen and her court escorted by her brother Dairy, led the procession to the side of the gym where a throne jid special chairs were reserved for the Queen and her court to watch the second half of the game.
