Sleep deprivation

After the first couple of months of sleep deprivation begin to take their toll, you cannot help but notice the hundreds of students who are in desperate need of a good night’s sleep.

What are the symptoms of such deprivation? Dark circles under the eyes, zombie-like stares, and the mass amounts of students napping throughout the Academic Building.

WWJD?

For years, the earth has been polluted by chemicals, gases, and waste. Deforestation and pesticides have ruined parts of the earth which are all a part of God’s beautiful creation. It is one thing to say we are concerned and that it’s too bad such a pretty place is dying; but it’s another to do something about it. Sure, we can blame our fathers and their fathers for the pollution of our land, but unless we change our ways and put an end to such destruction, we are contributors ourselves.

Cars and people fill the parking lot. Box upon box is carried into houses. Parents cry; siblings explore; and some students discover they were not as “tough” as they had predicted when they tear up while saying goodbye to their parents while other students cannot wait for their family to leave! Amidst all of this chaos, noise, and excitement, I can already see that Redeemer is going to have an impact on my life. First years, we have arrived!
