Fire alarm awakens students at BHT

Students living in the Bolt/Heyns/Timmer residence hall were awakened by a fire alarm early Tuesday morning. The alarm, which sounded at 3:45 a.m., was false. Understandably, most students were unhappy. Freshman Amy VanStensel half-laughingly stated “I think that whoever did it should be lynched.” Students who refused to get out of bed will be fined $25 and a $250 reward has been offered to whoever turns in the culprit. If caught, the prankster will have to pay $500.

Alumni Association presents new career program

This program allows students to be paired with alumni working in their area of interest. Alumni will host students in the areas of medicine, law, education, social work, ministry, marketing, banking, small business, occupational and physical therapy, art, engineering, research and politics. Alumni are located in many states and Canada. For more information, e-mail saa@calvin.edu or request a brochure from a department office.
