"Education With a Christian Purpose," is the motto Olivet has exemplified this year. The Bible tell us to be models of Jesus and reflect Him to the world. Olivet offers a caring environment away from home. The students will reflect what they have learned here into the world. Reflections can be either good or bad. A reflection of this school is you. College is a time that you will grow both spiritually and intellectually. Olivet gave you the keys to success through many means. One was the updating of ONU facilities and new building construction through the Capitol Campaign of 1998-99. The first change the campus saw in the fall was the construction of the new entrance. What was once a stone sign became a pair of symmetrical, curved brick walls bearing the name Olivet Nazarene University. The old stone sign was moved to a new position at the east end of University Avenue, near Ward Field. Next, the foundation for the Admissions Welcome Center was put into place just east of the new entrance. Another major project was the renovation of the student dining room in Ludwig. The transformation from "cafeteria" to the "scatter system" all but erased the long lines of students wrapped around the edges of the room.

College is the time that individuals question their being and gain their own sense of spirituality with God. Do you ever reflect in your quiet times and evaluate your day? Was it good? Did you use your time wisely? Did you do poorly on a test? These and many other questions may flood your mind.
