ightly-colored jerseys weretangible reminders of the strongclub loyalty felt at Harding. Kinship developedthrough common goals and shared experiencessuch as mixers, hayrides, baUgames and serviceprojects.Clubs played an integral social rolebecause of the time and dedication given them.And while clubs were not the only place wherefriendships formed, they were a good startingplace. They established a foundation for friendship- a chance to grow closer to each other and to God.Laura Rice, Social Clubs Editor~D_iv7i s7io~n~p7a~g e ______ ~p_201Social Clubs

A GOAL FORPLEDGINGPledge week is frequently dreaded, but not byAGO's pledges, because instead of pledges seIYingmembers, AGO members served their pledges."It was one reason I joined the club," KevinCrumley said. "AGO acted on the idea ofseIYanthood. That was how they conducted pledgeweek." The goal of Alpha Gamma Omega's pledgeweek was to get to know the new members. "Wetried not to intimidate the pledges . . We just wantedto get to know them and create friendships,"President Jason Looney said.The idea of seIYanthood extended to the otherpledges around campus. When sponsor Rick Healyfound a pledge having difficulty with the week'sevents, he asked AGO pledges to write the personan encouraging note. "The point of AGO is to servepeople - whether or not they are members ofAGO," Looney said."During rough night, AGO members really becameimitators of Christ," Crumley said. "We had adevo and then the members washed our feet. Theygave us towels to commemorate the event. Afterthat, they treated us to a pizza party.""Pledge week set the tone for the rest of thesemester," Looney said.AGO's prinCiple of servanthood blessed them."We have become a tight-knit group of guys,"Crumley said.- Julie Anderson'LtGO acted on the idea ofservanthood.

Theguys all brought dates and ate dinner together, andafterwards they played games.The costumes were humorous and memorable."Jess works at a bowling alley, so he dressedup like a funny bowler," said President MattHuddleston. "My date and I dressed like the BluesBrothers. " The games were fun as well. Themembers said they especially enjoyed charades -guys against the girls. "It's not just every day thatyou play charades," said Dennis O'Malley, a juniorfrom Norman, Okla "We thought up complicatedtitles that no one had ever heard of. They werereally hard to act out."Another game they liked was a word game.For a certain length of time, no one was allowed tosay a particular word, for example "that. " Eachmember was given a clothespin, which was takenaway if he said the forbidden word. This proved tobe tricky. "Some words just slip in without younoticing," said Huddleston.Alpha Tau Epsilon had a fun gathering andgrew closer in the process. "It was an effort to keepour club close and together," O'Malley said.- Laura Rice"It was an effort to keep ourclub close and together."Dennis O'Malley and julius Patton chat outside the StudentCenter.

All club participantswere given a personal fact profile indicating astudent's hobbies and interests. The girls thenbought appropriate presents and assembled Christmasstockings for the children.Sunshine School students were in on the planningas well. They made a paper chain to countdown to the day of the party and removed a linkeach day in anticipation of the festivities.Wendy Yeakle, who gave a five-year old boysome race cars, sa id, "It was neat to see that eventhe littlest thing causes their faces to light up."Chi Omega Pi also worked with the SunshineSchool students this spring when they participatedin Special Olympics. The members went to watchthe races, cheer the kids on, and to be "huggers,"embracing children as they crossed the finish line.- Lisa Stiles"It was neat to see that even thelinlest thing causes their facesto light up."204_~~ ____ ~C~h~iO~m~e~g~a~PiSocial Clubs

THE HARMONY OFTRADITIONIn keeping with Harding and its many traditions,social clubs have established their own traditionsthrough the years. One of the most notable hasbeen that of Chi Sigma Alpha.Each semester since 1963, the men of Chi SigmaAlpha have gotten special late permission to leavethe dorms after curfew [0 go serenade rhe girls incampus reside nce halls. Responding to a repertoireranging from "The 12 Days of Christmas" to "You'veLost that Lovin' Feelin," the girls have generallybeen appreciative and have shown it by throwingopen their windows a nd cheering."We usually wear our club jerseys the day afterserenading and the girls come up and thank us,"said Clif Mims, adding, "It seems like a little thing,but the girls like it." Mims said , "Serenading hasbeen a neat tradition and we are honored that theuniversity has let us continue it. "\Vhile this tradition was fun and enteltaining, itwas not reflective of everything the club did. ChiSigma Alpha and its sister club, Regina, have servedMichael Shoenberger, a 3D-year-old invalid, for anumber o f years. These clubs worked together tomake the burden easier for Michael's parents andthe wo rld a bit brighter for Michael.As clubs continued to meet the social needs ofstudents, Chi Sigma Alpha's activities were a uniqueexample of emertainmem and service.- Jenny Tyree"It has been a neat tradition andwe are honored that the universityhas let us continue it."Matt Brenl and $lev'e laRoche entertain at a mixer.

A CHANCE TOREMEMBERDelta Chi Delta's five-year anniversary called fora Homecoming reunion - a first for this men's socialclub.The reunion was held at the home of campusminister Dwight (and Barby) Smith, one of theclub's sponsors. The members showed picturesand other memorabilia from this and previollsyears.Delta Chi Delta was chartered in April, 1989.Founding members saw a need for another men'sclub with a different focus. Johnny Scott, the onlycharter member still at Harding, said they "wantedto start a club that would make an impression o ncampus, a club that would focus on serving andencouraging one another in their Christian values,"a focus he says they have kept.The club had 72 active members this year,moving them from small to medium club sports andproviding greater 0pp0r[uniry to be involved incampus activities, service projects and Spring Sing.President Don Neal said, "I think, through all thechanges, that our focus hasn't changed. The thingsthat we hold dear, such as unity, have remained thesame."Delta Chi Delta's motto, Psalms 133:1, says"How good it is when brothers live together inunity." This first reunion showed how strong thatunity actually is.- Lisa Stiles"[ think, through all thechanges, that our focus hasn'tchanged."Corey Brown directs queen Drea Howard as she cuts her birthdaycake.

Susan Billingsley said, "Wereally fell in love with the children in Houston, sowhen we came back this semester, we started goingto church with the inner-city children in Little Rock. "Club members helped the children to have a daywithout the pressures of everyday life. They spentthe day at The Discovery Zone, after which theyenjoyed lunch together. Their main goal was toshow them the benefits of working for the Lord."This service project helped the girls realize thatthere is life after Harding, and that we need to besensitive to people from all walks of life," saidPresident Amy Ferguson. Billingsley said, "We haveall been blessed tremendously with material things.This helps us see that some people aren't so blessedand that we have a chance to make a difference intheir lives."Through their work, the girls of Delta GammaRho were able to teach the inner-City children aboutthe Lord and show them the benefits of working inHis church. In helping care for these children, thegirls felt a sense of responsibility and increased theirown faith and strength.- Traci Busby"This helps us see that somepeople aren't so blessed andthat we have a chance to makea difference in their lives."Lori Hendricks and Suzanne Dalke perform club cheers duringpledge week.

All activitieswere confined to the school grounds."We provided good male role models," memberShannon Simmons said. He stressed that many ofthe children did not have fathers and seemed totruly enjoy playi ng and spending time with theseyoung men. .President Paul Pursell said, "This is somethingthat we like to do to benefit people." He explainedthat, in the past, the club did not spend a lot of timeon service projects and it was hard to get membersinvolved. \Vith this project, however, the entireclub was active with the children. He felt that theproject benefited the club and the kids they cameinto contact with.Involvement with these children gave Galaxymembers something productive to do during theirfree time, and also showed the children goodexamples of what Christian service and attitude isall about.- Lisa 5 tiles"This is something that we liketo do to benefit people."Jeremy Paden relaxes at Sugarloaf Mountain.

KappaTau Omega and their fall function dates could tellyou, for this is just the type of atmosphere theyattempted to create. Rather than having a traditional hayride, Kappa Tau Omega members tooktheir dates to Heber Springs for a cookout. Whilethey prepared to eat, they played volleyball orfootball on the beach. And they climbed up SugarloafMounta in near the end of the day to watch the sunset and have a bonfire.Kappa Tau Omega prided itself on its uniqueness.President Ryan King said, "We try to bedifferent and do our own thing."The members of Kappa Tau Omega enjoy theirunique tradition.

A SALE FORHIS HOUSEKa Re Ta began a service project in 1988 whichhas become a tradition for the group. Once eachsemester, the girls gather, price, tag and sell leftoveritems from His House, a benevolence ministry ofthe College Church of Christ.Members took the hard-to-move items from H isHouse, including books, toys, clothing and appliancesin oe(!d of minor repairs, and sold them on achilly November Saturday.George \\lilson, the elder in charge of the ministry,and his wife, Rosemary, provided the setting forthe sale by allowing the gi rls to use their driveway.Typical of garage sales in this area, customers beganarriving at 6:00 a.m. and, when the sale ended at3,00 p.m., more than 5300 had been raised to buyfood and othe r pantry items for needy families.A repeat performance in the spring allowedadditional funcls to be available. Club memberRena McCarty said, "Having the garage sale eachsemester really helps His HOllse, the communityand the club. His House gets money it needs, thecommunity gets to purchase items they need and [Qhave its needy families helped, and the club gets alot of respect for what we are trying to do."Ka Re Ta enjoyed doing the garage sale.

A GIFT INMEMORYWhen their long-time sponsor, Ed White, died inJuly, the members of King's Men made a mid-year'sresolution to dedicate an upcoming service projectto the memOlY of their former friend and mentor.The White family requested that all monetary giftsbe donated to the Searcy Children's Home, so theclub made their own donation in \X1hire's name."We decided at the beginning of the fall semesterto donate all leftover club money to the children'shome and leave our club account at SO," VicePresident John Exum said. Members also took upcollections at club meetings to supplement the finalamount."\'(1hite had been ollr sponsor for 18 years; King'sMen is only 20 years old. Naturally we wanted to dosomething special in remembrance of his service,"President Mike Gilpin said.According to Gilpin, the project was more thanjust a donation. "After \Xlhite was hospitalized inJuly, we pitched in to help the family, doing oddjobs like mowing the yard. We have continued tocheck on Mrs. White, to make sure she's taken careof, " he said.Prior to presenting the donation in Decen1ber,Gi lpin took the opportunity to tour the children'shome during its open house. "I was able to see thegrounds and a ll the rooms," he said.

They transformed Harding's front lawn inroa scene from medieval Europe. Armored warriorsgalloped across the green while robed ladies watchedfrom their distant platform. But the lance was madeof foam rather than metal, and a hit was determinedby how much shaving cream a squire could leaveon his opponent. The squires were bracketed,competing to defend the honor of a fair maiden,until finally, one squire was declared the champion.He then had to fight against one of the Lord Knightmembers, who, as usual, defeated him.Students walking across the front lawn on Thursdayimmediately recognized the familiar joust.Many, besides those in Kn ights, stayed to watch."1['s a unique campus event thac provides an outletfo r everyone during pledge week," said Knightspresident, Nathan Mellor. "It's a tradition thatdistinguishes our club from the others. ,.Besides being unique, the joust represented acornpelition which actually used to take place. "It'sa re-enactment of an event that has a history, eventhough it's not real. It's not just another pointlesstask they make lip for you do during pledge week,"commented PhillipShero, a freshman from Crowley,Texas.

Thiswas a time for the club to grow closer and strongerbefore ind ucting its new members. "It was a chancefor us to get away from our usual enviro nment,"said President Leah Mangrum, a senior fromMcComb, Miss. "We focused o n God and eachother instead of everyday, unimportant things. "One activity the girls enjoyed during the weekendwas having bags in which each member wrotewhat they admired mOst about the others. "That wasour souvenir from the weekend," Mangrum said."Ko Jo Kai is a very diverse group of girls,"explained Mangrum. "When we got away, therewere no tiries and no diversities. Everyone couldjust be themselves."Vice President Ke lly Cooper, a senior from OliveBranch, Miss., emphasized the weekend as a re fl ectionof her involvement with the club. "I witnessedthe gi rls reach farther than I ever thought theycould, push each other to the limit, and stimulateand learn from each other. We were all united byone jersey."'Just by looking back on that one weekend, thefeeling returns," Mangrum said. "It totally changedthe way we looked at each other when we got backto campus.

Clubmembers enjoyed this activity, not simply as an offcampusexcursion, but as a chance to meet andserve area residents.In keeping with Kyodai's commitment to communityservice, member Steve Adams, who alsoserved on the city's Holiday of Lights committee,suggested to the club that they assist with thisproject in fu lfillment of their service project for theyear. The club chose to accomplish this taskbecause "it was an opportunity for club members tobe exposed to people who were not in any wayassociated with Harding," club president ScottManuel said.Throughout the holiday season, Kyodai alsohelped to raise funds for more lights and collectedtoys for the Toys for Tots drive. They also continuedtheir regular seIVice project - assisting in thecleanup of city streets.By working at the park, the courthouse and inthe streets and through interaction with ci ty officials,area residents and local journalists, clubmembers were able to encourage a positive outlooktoward Harding within the community.- Alia Casey"It was an opportunity for clubmembers to be exposed topeople w ho were not in anyway associated with Harding."SCOll Manuel al1d SCOll Balentine share the news in their box illthe Student Center.

"We have adiverse group.of guys, and we try to have a differentkind of function every fall. "Last year's fa ll function challenged each memberto bring a little bravery, along with his date, if heplanned to ride the bull in Cabol.However, this fall 's kilt krash required a differentkind of bravery. "We didn't have to wear kilts, butmost everyone did," sophomore Brian Reis said."Our guys are very secure in their manhood."Creativity on a more serious side was seen lastspring when members discovered that the newborndaughter of their sponsor, Scott Morris, had cysticfibros is. They decided to give the money saved forthe spring function to Morris' family. A $1000 checkwas given to Morris, along with a big card signed byall the members. "It almost brought him to tears,"Metheny said, "and it brought us closer together.

Located both years at theSearcy Emporium, the haunted house has becomea source of safe but scalY Halloween fun for localkids and their parents.The project was not without its philanthropicmotives. All money raised was donated to localcharities and organizations. "Last year we presenteda lump sum to the Sunshine School. This year wegave most of it to the United Way, " said presidentRich Ross.The event began the 22nd and continued throughHalloween. For the workers involved, this schedulecalled for a great deal of time, effort and intensepreparation. "A lot of work went into designing andconstructing the different rooms," said Ross. "Forthe forest room, guys actually had to go out to thewoods and cut down limbs and trees. And for thepolka-dot room they had to do quite a bit ofpainting."Another feature of this year's haunted house wasa section of wooden tunnel underlaid with pJexigJassflooring. As they entered this palt , visitors couldlook down through the floor and view, to theirhorror, a live assortment of snakes and rats.The haunted house provided a way to serveothers and have fun at the same time.- Tim Stanley"Last year we presented a lumpsum to the Sunshine SchoolThis year we gave most of it toUnited Way.

That experience encouraged theofficers to plan a different type of activity, o ne thatdid not rely so heavily on tradition or good weather.They rented a barn, planned some games, broughtplenty of refreshments, and gave birth to the BarnBash.Since its debut in 1989, the Bash has become oneof the more popular fall club functions. Last fall,Shantih members and their dates brought decoratedpumpkins as their entrance "tickets" for a pumpkincarvingcontest to be held later that evening.

Infact, the parents of o ne club member are missionaries."\'(1e tell them how much we appreciatethem," Hart said. "Even though we're not able tobe there, we're glad they are and we wish them thebest of luck."The project has been very successful, and manyhave chosen to be a part of it.

SERVICE THROUGHFRIENDSHIPEvery month Sigma Phi Mu members visitedSouthern Christian Home in Morrilton, a homewhere orphans live in group homes with houseparents. After making friends there, club membersenjoyed returning on a regular basis."The best part is just sitting around talking to thekids and sharing our pasts," said Darla Knox.Members wanted the children to know they werenot there simply to have fun, but to get to knowthem. Melinda Oliver said she liked (0 go because,"I've made friends there. I know some ofthem havebeen abused in the past and I want to show themthat it doesn't have to be that way."Oliver said her most vivid memory was Christmaslast year when they wem to each house todistribute gifts to the children. She especiallyenjoyed the surprised look on everyone's faces,including those of the house parents.Sigma Phi Mu members traveled [0 Morriltonone Saturday each month. They usually playedvolleyball or basketball, and sometimes had picnics.Social directo rs organized each trip's activities,wking into consideratio n that the kids ranged frombirth to 18 years of age.The club chose this service project because itwas mutually beneficial - it gave the childrenspecial friends and special times to remember, andit gave members of the club opporruniry to get toknow and to serve those in need.- Ellen Fowler"The best part is sitting aroundtalking and sharing our pasts."Wendy Mauricio perfonus in cbapel with other Central Americallstudents.

DarenHoladay, skipper, said, "It's these values and traditionsthat make Sub-T 16 such a unified group.They are the glue that binds us together."At the annual Homecoming breakfast, Dr. CliftonL. Ganus,Jr., a former skipper, spoke to alumni andcurrent crew members. Ganus spoke of the memorieshe shared with his pledge class and howcampus life had changed since he was a student,with Sub-T 16 being one of the few things that hasremained consistent on the campus.Bill Hinkle, a first-year member of Sub-T 16reacted to Ganus' speech. "It's really mind bogglingto think that the same traditions tha t Dr. Ganusupheld when he was a student are still aroundtoday. It's nice (0 have a constant that you canalways rely on, and Sub-T 16 is that constant."Spiritual unity was also a big part of Sub-T 16'syear. Casey Smith, a third-year member, said,"Devotionals helped me to be able to take a breakfrom all the pressures of school. It lifts you up toknow that you have more than 60 people o n yourside if you need them.

THE EXPERIENCE OFZOOFEST"We wanted to do something other than ahayrid.e," said senior Peter Eptan from Anchorage,Alaska. That's why TNT members and their dates"adopted" children from Little Rock's River City·Ministries for a day. About 35 children participatedin the outing. The Harding students left Searcy atabout noon and spent the afternoon w ith thechildren at the zoo. After returning the children totheir homes, the members and their dates met in avacant lot near McCain Mall for a cookout.Apparently, the kids loved it. "They were sograteful for the kindness that we showed them,"said Chris Phillips, a senio r from Ft. Collins, Colo."It humbled me and reminded me who I am andwho I'm supposed to be."But tile kids were not the only ones whobenefited from the experience. "I think it helped usto see what goes on in their homes," commentedZach Steed, a freshman from Carbondale, III. Phillipsspo ke of what he gained from the children, "Theirgenuineness - just being themselves - was a rewardfo r me . I could see Jesus in them. "The "zoofest" was a learning experience fo reveryone involved. While the children discoveredwhat it means to be cared for with special attentio n,the TNT members learned about giving themselvesin service to others.- Laura Rice"It humbled me and remindedme who I am and who I'm supposedto be."Bn'all Mansdoerjer and Andy Chesser sloke the fire at a TNTmixer/cookollt.

After church the children, assisted by their"adoptive parents" (club members), made handprint[-shirrs which they rook home with them.The festivities continued into the weekend. OnFriday night, club members took the children todinner at Circus Capers in Little Rock where theyplayed for hours.Fun was not the lOp priority, though. A moreimportant goal for club members was the chance to"minister to children who otherwise would not hearabout Christ," Dubach said.What could have been an ordinary Christmasparty had become much more. Dubach said, "Wedid it, not to make ourselves feel better, but for thechildren." As Jesus washed the feet of his disciples,so had Tri-Delta Epsilon exhibited true service bybringing young souls closer to Christ.- Alia Casey"We did it to minister to childrenwho otherwise would nothear about Christ."Tri-Delta Epsilon~So':':c-':ia::'; I ::;C:; lu-':;b:!::s=:':':"---,£'S£,,- 2 31

"It's really nice to know thatpeople would give up their Saturday, even thoughit was right after pledge week and most peopledon't really have a lot of energy.

Onespecial advantage of the work was that it wasobviously needed. "We really made a difference,"said Amy Conner, a junior from D enver, Colo. "Youcould see how the building had changed from whenwe started and when we left."But the benefits were not just physical. ShannonPollard, a freshman from Searcy, said, "Wewere just getting used to pledge week, and thingshad gotten really tense. It was good to have anactivity that was more laid back. " Conner said, "I gotto work beside my pledge.

Nominated by Regina social club,they were selected by senior members of thestudent body.McGregor, a senior dietetics major from Hallsville,Texas, said, upon receiving the award, "I wouldhope I would live up to it. I hope people see thisas something that is actually in my life, and not justas an award I received."Moore, a senior Bible major from Ft. WalronBeach , Fla. , expressed his emotions by saying, "Thepeople who stay up late with their roomrnates, whovisit the elderly in the nursing home - those are thetrue servants, but they are never recognized. It'skind of ironic that, for service done in humility, theywould give you an award."What advice would they give to Harding students'"You can be involved in a lot of things andreceive honors and recognition, but what's reallyimportant is having your relationship with God ontrack," McGregor said. Moore advised, "Expect onlywhat God has promised. If anything else comes, bethankful. But don't expect any more."In presenting this award, Regina has honored apair who so represent the spirit of Christ that theywere even embarrassed to be publicly recognized- the kind of spirit for which the award was initiated.- Laura Rice" what's really important ishaving your relationship withGod on track . ..
