CCC christens campus
by Lareina King
staff writer
Campus Crusades for Christ, a new
organization that sophomore Brad
Elder is attempting to establish at
Behrend, is already a program at 11
other Penn State campuses.
"CCC is a nondenominational
international Christian organization,"
said Elder. "Its mission is turning lost
students into Christ-centered
laborers." Elder was the first to look
into the idea of a CCC organization
at Behrend.
Right now, CCC is waiting on an
approval from SGA. If approved,
Elder's plan is tct have an outreach
right away.
"Something with Christmas or sled
riding is what we're thinking," said
Elder.
If the application is approved,
New radio station on campus?
by Lareina King
staff writer
A new FM radio station may debut
at Behrend soon.
"It will be completely student-led,"
said Katie Leary, Student
Government Association radio station
committee chairwoman. The station
will play different styles of music
during certain times of the day.
Student organizations, offices, and
local business will have commercial
time on air.
We are competing with Gannon
for the same call numbers but are
The Inside Story
On the outside, it's easy to see that Celica is race-track
inspired. But the real excitement is on the inside...under the
hood. Take the Celica GT-S...Toyota worked with Yamaha to
build a 180 HP engine redlined at 7800 RPM...equipped it
with Variable Valve Timing with intelligence...a computer
that constantly monitors and retunes your engine for maxi
mum performance...a cam with two sets of lobes to provide
two ranges of valve lift and duration for more usable horse
power. There's direct ignition for greater reliability...
iridium-tipped spark plugs for reduced maintenance...a
stainless steel exhaust manifold...a water-cooled oil cooler.
And mated with Toyota's 4-speed electronically-controlled
automatic "Sportshift", you get transmission shift switches
on the steering wheel...just like formula 1 race cars. Sweet.
meetings will be held at 8 p.m. in the
Smith Chapel on Wednesdays.
Meetings will consist of Bible
discussions, worship, and future
plans. Some of the things it will
include are large group meetings,
small Bible studies, and an outreach
committee.
"Its just another time, place, and
atmosphere," said Elder about CCC
competing with other Christian
groups, such as the Intervarsity
Christian Fellowship. "CCC will
focus on different aspects of need.
Students that come will make it what
it is. It will only be competitive if
people make it that way."
CCC is established in 170 countries
on campuses as large as University
Park and as small as 1,000-student
community colleges. It was started by
two students at UCLA who felt the
need to spread their faith. They began
likely to get them because Gannon
has a station already," Leary said.
Right now, she is in contact with
station managers at Gannon and
Mercyhurst for help with the station.
SGA had help with their application
for a permit, which was sent out in
May.
The Student Activity Fee
Committee has $lO,OOO set aside for
start up, although the application
needs to be accepted before the
equipment can be bought and a
manager hired. Another problem is
finding a place to put the station. If a
place can't be found Leary suggested
Celica
the possibility of putting the station
in the SGA suite. Because of its low
power, the station will air in a radius
of five to 10 miles.
The new FM station could also be
tied into the Communications
department. Dr. Rod Troester,
department chairman, pointed out
there is already a one-credit course
offered relating to the existing radio
station, WPSE.
"Depending on how the FM station
develops if it is actually approved
by the FCC, there would certainly be
the possibility of adding radio-related
coursework," he added.

going to Greek organizations. By the
end of the semester, 60 women from
a sorority party had come to accept
Jesus. As more people came they
decided to become an organization.
Those two students made CCC
their life's work. One of their highly
popular programs is a fall, winter, or
spring retreat. There are also summer
programs that allow students to use
entire summers to go anywhere and
live in the U.S. with 100 other
students. They are given a summer
job and spend evenings and
weekends performing outreaches in
the area. For the first half of the
summer, they are ministered to but
after that the leaders leave and the
students are left to run the program.
Also, there are overseas programs
where students can stay two weeks
and do outreaches, but no summer job
is involved.
