Rediscovery Student Columnist JOSH MCCORMICK T here are many sights to behold while gazing out the window this time of year. The landscape is going through mam- changes from the green grass dwindling into brown, to the trees doing their autumn color dance. This transition from summer to fall is a concrete reminder of the presence and cycle of change in our own lives. Change is an essential and ever present aspect of life. Some embrace change, opening the door for new re lationships, opportunities, and growth. Others flee from change, unwilling to accept the consequences of it or see it as a threat to their ego. The ego loves control and change can compromise this control. One thing is certain, your college years will be filled with much change. What von do with your free time and who you surround yourself with will change. You may change your major a handful of times. For the freshmen, this is your first time away from ma and pa. As for the seniors, you soon will be exploring new lands and using the skills you learned here. All of us have change weaving in and out of our lives, but the thing that matters is how you adapt to change. For the moment imagine yourself as a tree and the leaves as aspects and details of your life. The tree feeds the leaves, allowing them to grow. Just as you form the details and elements of your life by focusing on them. Come fall, the tree prepares by shedding its leaves, conserving water and energy for the changing conditions. Before the leaves arc cut off. the tree reabsorbs the valuable nutrients from them. With your own details and aspects of life, there arc things you must con sciously release from and others that change due to outside circumstances. Change doesn't require a complete de struction of a personal aspect or detail, but rather, change moves you forward by retaining that which is valuable and opening you up to fresh creation. Some leaves drop without hesita tion while others catch a spiral, gently floating away. In your own life change can happen in a thundering fashion, or other times it is a slow process requir ing patience to fully adapt. In the end, whether change is drastic or takes time, it happens. The tree perseveres through harsh conditions and experiences a bright awakening conic spring, starting the process over. It is hard to release from control, but if we can adapt through change, we loo can bloom into a heightened existence. Wc arc meant to change and Slav dynamic. Where there is stagnation in life, you should ponder where you are opposing change. Everyone will handle change differently, but know the presence of change means the presence of growth. As the seasons change don't stay static, but rather, do the autumn color dance.

Chapel designs may change as fundraising continues. CodyTredik Lead Writer Rumors have been circulating for months. But it is true-Carroll College is planning to build a new chapel in Old North, creating a worship space capable of more adequately housing the spiritual body of campus. This project is part the Mind, Body, and Spirit campaign—a capital campaign insti tuted by President Evans’ administration. The campaign is raising money in order to complete several building projects including the Hunthausen Student Activity Center and the new chapel. While the building has not been formal ly announced by the college, information regarding the chapel has traveled quickly around campus. The initial idea for the chapel arose from the need for a real chapel space large enough to accommodate the size of the group which gathers each Sunday in the campus center for Mass. \The interior space of the students is ready to be matched by an exterior space,” said Father Marc Lenneman, chaplain and director of Campus Ministry. “A space that matches it, and can augment it.” The ultimate drive for all of these updates to the school is centered on the needs of the student body. \All of these projects are based on filling student needs. The Hunthausen Activity Center will fill an athletic and community need, and the chapel will fill a spiritual need,” said Patty White, director of marketing and communications. Little is certain at the moment as to w-hat the chapel will look like, but early surveys and discussions have led archi tects towards a preliminary vision. The space will have a natural feel that \reflects the beauty and spirituality of living in Montana by incorporating native stone, wood, and natural lighting,” according to the college’s official statement regarding the chapel. The current plans place the new chapel in Old North—the current location of the theater, ceramics studio, and many of the fine arts programs. This would make it centrally located on campus, and because Carroll is limited in acreage, building in Old North would eliminate the need to find sufficient land to build a free-standing structure. This project would displace the Photo courtesy of Patty White. Carroll Theater, as well as other classes which inhabit the building. \I have heard rumors about putting a chapel in Old North, but there has been no official announcement,\ said Chuck Driscoll, director of the theatre program. \There has also been no timetable or plan to replace the facility for the theatre and music, and ceramics in the basement, all of which would be displaced.\ Driscoll, though, is hopeful the leader ship of Carroll will handle the situation professionally. \I believe the leadership of the college will do what is best for the college, and as the arts are part of the college, they will be included in the process,\ said Driscoll Ralph Esposito, director of visual arts, indicated that he has no information on the future plans for the fine arts space that is currently housed in Old North. The news of the new chapel has delight ed many students but it also concerns stu dents who worry about the future of fine arts at Carroll.
