jjjll isn’t what it used to be.
Sometimes we are greeted with
[liesppetizing stench of burning
[jf, other times the pleasant
jusic of the jack hammer
jccompanies us, and oftentimes
»e are startled by the loud crash
of a huni! of plaster that has
teen discarded from what used
lobe a wall or ceiling. It used to
look as though the old library
»as being demolished rather
than remodeled. Lately, how-
ew, it has begun to look more
organized and the connecting
»-ing has begun to take shape. I
dedded it was time to learn just
»hat the plans are for the old
kuflding. Milton Adams, vice
president, discussed the project
me and gave me a guided
tour of the construction site.
The lower level of the buil
ding will house the President’s
office, the Academic Dean’s
office, Admissions, the total
development program, Mr.
Qeveland’s office, college rela
tions, and a conference room.
Hie lobby will be used as a main
reception area.
Chaplain Hensley’s office will
remain upstairs; the media cen
ter will occupy the main class
room across from it; the Disci-
pliana collection, presently
housed at 603 Lee Street, will
occupy the area where the
stacks were previously; and two
rooms will be used as class
rooms.
The present administration
building will then contain Pu
blicity, Financial Aid, printing
and the Registrar’s and Vice
President’s offices.
Connecting the two buildings
will be a corridor containing two
restrooms and ramps; these
were built in order to comply
with the state’s handicap code.
Most of the floor space in both
buildings will be carpeted.
When asked when the project
will be completed, Mr. Adam’s
replied, “Originally, it was to be
finished in March, but I don’t
expect to see it done until the
end of April or early May.” In
any case, it is a much needed
improvement and certainly
worth waiting for.
Bus Stop on the Way
by Jody Jenkins
This is a note to again remind
the student body that the Stage
and Script production of Bus
Stop is heading into Atlantic
Christian College. Under the
direction of Dr. Paul Crouch, the
cast has been rehearsing stead
ily and is getting down to the
serious business of putting lines
to memory.
For those students who may
vaguely recall the play title, this
is the same story that was put to

“Tradition” Topic
of Paulsell
Monroe not so many years ago.
The basic theme centers around
a handsome cowboy and the
beautiful danchall girl with
whom he falls in love. The
unlikely combination of the two
provides for a tragically funny
routine.
So, keep in mind, opening
night is Thursday. February 22,
and admission is free to all
Atlantic Christian College stud
ents. Your partonage will make
it worthwhile.
Dr. William 0. Paulsell. pro
fessor of religion at Atlantic
Christian College, will present a
lecture entitled “The Christian
Contemplative Tradition,’’ on
Thursday, Feb. 15, in the choral
room of the Roma Hackney
Music Building, on the college
campus, at 7:30 p.m.
Throughout the history of the
church, from Paul to the pres-
sent, Christians have attempted
to describe their religious ex
perience. The lecture will sur
vey these efforts and examine
how, in the different period of
history, people have understood
their own encounters with God.
Paulsell earned the B.D.,
M.A., and Ph.D. degrees at
Vanderbilt University and the
B.A. degree from Texas Christ
ian University. He has been a
member of the college faculty
since 1962. His teaching field is
church history. His other inter
ests include the history of
Christian spirituality, Christian
monasticism, and history of
the Cistercian order.
He is the author of two books:
“Taste and See; A Personal
Introduction to the Spiritual
Life,” and "Letters From a
Hermit,” published in 1978. He
is also author of numerous
magazine articles.
The lecture is sponsored by
the A.C. Chapter of the Ameri
can Association of University
Professors and is presented in
conjunction with its 1978-79
Faculty Lecture Series.
The public is invited free of
charge.
