Memory #32: Buncha Bethel
I’ve been around Bethel a fairly long time, now. This is actually my seventeenth year on campus. Here’s a buncha Bethel memories.
I remember when…
- the acorn was in the dining commons, which was then called the campus center.
- the campus center doubled as the chapel three days a week.
- Reflection Pond was a mud volleyball pit.
- there were two dormitories on campus--Shupe and Oakwood.
- there was one computer in Oakwood, and no one knew what the Internet was.
- you had to get to a Bethel basketball game at least thirty minutes before tip-off if you wanted to get in.
- the soccer field was a sort of garbage dump.
- the tennis courts were a soccer field.
- the parking lot by the soccer field were tennis courts.
- Wiekamp was a parking lot.
- the Wiekamp parking lot was a practice soccer field.
- the fine arts building was a terrifying wilderness.
- God showed up at Spiritual Emphasis week, 1991.
