Some of us are embark- ing for the first time on the four-year journey of a life-time. Nervous Fresh- men as new students wander aimlessly, while veteran Sophomores, Juniors talk over past journeys. Seniors in all their glory dream of the ever elusive gradua- tion day, while experiencing a bitter sweet sadness that this is the last of their four year journey. Whether the new day of Freshmen, the semi-new day of Soph- omores and Juniors, or the last new day of Seniors This warm September day is a new dawning in all our lives. -.;*,..'*% ^7 A* Charting our course is not always easy. It takes much thought, planning, discuss- ing and daydreaming to come up with a suitable course. We joke with our friends about what we'll do when we "grow up", and wonder to ourselves what we'll real- ly do. Some of us already have our life's course in our world all planned out, while others of us still dream. We are the world of tomorrow plotting our course in today. New discoveries are made every day. In English Class we discover great authors; in Biology, the workings of cells; in Edu- cation classes, the methods of leading others to discover. Along with our intel- lectual discoveries come discoveries of friends, of relationships, and life in gen- eral. The discoveries make our world a continual source of adventure. T^K ir Up! Up! Over the clouds we soar, flying high. Amid all the flurry of finals, mid- terms, and pop-tests we rise above and fly. We build snowmen, go on road- trips, have mid-night burger runs, or just have a good time with friends. Some say these are the best times of our lives. And as we stay up for all night cram sessions, we know we will always re- member these times of flying high. Following Our Dreams When we embard on our journey, our minds and hearts are full of dreams. Some dream of riches our journey may bring. Others dream of fame after our journey is done. Still others try to fulfill dreams along the way: some date, some marry, some have children. Some be- come presidents, editors, or queens: while still others chase on, still follow- ing their dreams. When we begin to slow down on our voyage we need to catch a breeze. This usually happens toward the end of the quarter, but sometimes as early as the middle. Then comes a breeze under the name of Christmas or Spring break. We celebrate with laughter, smiles, and "See you next quarter!" Imperceptibly, we have caught a breeze and our journey continues. * Chasing the Wind The wind blows cold as we chase it be- tween the clouds. We can't always see just what it is that we are chasing, but we continue our voyage anyway. When asked, some say they are going on the journey because their parents made them, others say they want a career. Then there are those who say they don't really know why the voyage is so impor- tant, but it is. And so we continue, ever chasing the wind. ^^. ^ I* \ \^gnruU^juuLQ> Back on our journey, we fly into Winter quarter. Some people dropped out of our number, but new faces fill the places of missing ones. We begin to bury our- selves in books and studies and to hide from the cold wind of winter. Our minds, which have been dormant for a month, wake up to continue our facinat- ing journey. .J^ja Throughout our journey, there may be storms, all of different degree. During the winter, we run into a few storms. Some of the storms are worse than oth- ers. We might fail a test, argue with friends, or have trouble with term pa- pers. But if we just hold on, we can fly above the storms and move toward the turning point. 18 Sometimes the only way to get on with our journey is to read the signs. Reach- ing for the stars, always keeping our goals in mind is all that keeps us going. We follow the signs and make it through storms and closer to home. 20 JAC)W& iLRYima Spring Quarter is our turning point. Our journey is more than half over now, we are on the last leg. The weather changes and with the sunshine, our attitude changes. We smile when we meet in the halls, only about 75 more days. We try to concentrate on our classes while our mind wanders to what's happening after class. r OUl^ ^ybrnjy Our journey draws to a close, we head back toward home. It's been a long 225 days, but the feeling of accomplishment we have is worth the time. No more classes, no more tests. Now we can go home to our families and to summer jobs. But the internal journey, the eternal ** education goes on. o a OP ADMINISTRATION FACULTY ADMINISTRATION FACULTY ADMINISTRATION FACULTY ADMINISTRATION FACULTY ADMINISTRATION FACULTY ADMINISTRATION FACULTY ADMINISTRATION FACULTY ADMINISTRATION ADMINISTRATION/ FACULTY Faculty 2 28 And Staff Faculty 30 And Staff CLASSES CLASSES CLASSES CLASSES CLASSES CLASSES CLASSES CLASSES CLASSES CLASSES Students The purpose of Piedmont College is to provide men and women with an opportunity for learning an education in a Christian environ- ment.
