Write Your Words.
The Limestone quarry in March 2009. There was snow and 70 degree weather in the same week!
A book is written to inspire, to encourage, to entertain, or to teach. A book is chosen to discover the unknown or to escape reality. But YOUR book is designed to be treasured, to stand as a constant reminder of the people who inspired, encouraged, entertained, and taught you. Rather than discovering the unknown, recollections of the well-known and the almost forgotten are brought forth. As Calciid Advisor, each year is a cha llenge to create a collection of cherished memories that is not only artistically attractive, but also engaging, and entertaining. Th is year started out with a visit to Scrapbook Creations, a location of over 10,000 square feet of scrapbooking goodies (I believe in field trips to get the wheels turning), and this is where it all began ... a river of colors; a mountain of textured paper, patterned paper, glittered paper, big paper, small pa per; a field of ribbons, artificial flowers, buttons, stickers, pens, markers, glue, rhinestones, albums, tools; oh a heaven for designers, not to mention for the girls! Providing a coffee and sandwich cafe especially didn't hurt in order to enhance t he creative spirit and have t he juices flow ... flowing right into t he pages of this book. The selected students on the yearbook staff strive to give you a precious and endearing gift while their own unique qualities and abilities a re revealed. Their individual traits are pressed within and imprinted with every sentence, with every photograph. Working closely with o ne another we become good friend s; and s o it is sad when this chapter of t heir life has ended. But each year I realize students move on and have yet another chapter of their lives to write, all while new col e students are just beginning to make their mark. While life on like the pages of an encyclopedia, my job as Calciid advisor, done. It's a never ending story that is a privilege to tell year year ... and this year I hope we told YOUR story well.

5crapbooking is defined as a method for preserving personal an mily history in the form of photographs, printed media, and memorabilia contained in decorated albums, or scrapbooks. For Calciid, scrapbooking is defined as a method for collecting your personal fun, your social freedom, your learning experiences, your points of view, your journals, and printed in the form of YOUR book. Each page has been personalized to what you express and what you want each one of us to remember. Each captured moment is something unique placed with a special textured paper, sewn with exclusive ribbons and buttons, pasted on a distinctive background and combined with specific color pallets. Each written story is a sole memoir of your college career written in your vest handwriting. Completing the pages, developing the yearbook theme, maintaining the continuity factor, assigning yearbook pages and ensuring that staff members complete their pages, overa ll design and look of the yearbook, final editing of all the pages a nd proofs ... It certainly looks like a lot of work. But my reward at the end of the day after knowing how much our advisor, the staff and I worked for it is the gift that we created for each one of you. Being an Editor for a second year since I have been part of Calciid_ definitely made me realize how each year's book and staff can change. Having such a great guide and advisor definitely makes it easier to develop new ideas on each book and to keep the "big picture" through out the book. What has been created this year is nobody else's book but YOURS.
This is part of the banner outside President Griffin's home when he returned February 3ra following a month long stay at Spartanburg RegIonal Hospital. He suffered a heart attack January 2nd. Many people missed him during his absence. .,x
Iam Bryan Crawford, and this is my fourth year on the staff. This year, I had the pleasure of being a coeditor of the student life section, which I believe sets the tone for the entire book. It is filled with vibrant colors and exciting pictures of different events that happen both on and off campus. The creation of this section started developing around the month of October, which is when most of t he events take place. It was an honor working with my partner, Brooke Fowler, as well as my editor, Jennifer 5naider, who put forth her best effort in assisting me with the design portion of this section. Additionally, I would also like to thank my advisor, Jonna Turner, for entrusting me to be a member of the Ca/cUd staff for the past four years. 5he means a great deal to me and I wouldn't trade her for the world.
Whether it's catching up with that best friend you haven't seen on campus in a while, attending a basketball game in Timken gymnasium, or walking your dog down College Drive, Limestone students have many different interests outside of the classroom. My favorite thing to do is talk with friends between classes and carpool to 5tarbucks for an early morning coffee fix, because we all know that caffeine is needed for those 8:00 am classes! 5eeing my friends outside of the classroom always reminds me that college isn't just about learning and studying for a test, although those things are important, but having fun and socializing with your best buds is all a part of the college experience. Basically, student life demonstrates how students spend their down t ime and what they enjoy doing; it gives all of us a chance to catch up on life outside of the classroom. Brooke Fowler 8

It's aU about 10u. It's aU about "\<Iho do 10U \<Iant to beT and "\<Ihat do 10U \<Iant to do?" OnGe 10U have made the first steps in GoUege there are no more parents, no more of their boundaries, and no more Gontro\. It is an about ta~in9 ris~s and ma~in9 GhoiGes. WhiGh \<Ia1 do 10U \<Iant to \oo~ at thin9s: half fuU or half empt1? That part of GoUege is GaUed shapin9 and bec.omin9 \<Iho 10U are, affeded b110ur purs, \ifest1\es, relationships, and environment.

They often rec.elVe the material with the same enthUSiasm that I rec.eived the veget es that m'f mother tried to get me to eat. But I \::now that the \::nowledge of mathematil.s and how It better equ s them to interpret and e)<.perienl.e their world 10 a quantitative fashion is "9 ood for them." Teal.hln~ mathematil.s hat I enj0'l and am 900d at doin9. I belon9 here! ,
,
M'f purposeful aGtrvit'l at u:. is to wor\:: l.ol\aborativel'l with department and division members, whom I Gall friends. to Greate an overall mathematil.s department struc.ture that supports the wor\:: of students. I am here beGause of the students, aSsisting with their need to \::now some basic. mathematic.s. Althou9 h the aGademic. speGlaities differ between fal.U\t'l members, I enjoy the opportunnief> to tall:: and dlsc.uss edul.ational issues. In m'l home eac.h penon was un ique. but we shared and worl::ed t0gether to support eal.h other and the Gommon good. ~o it is at Ll.. In the worK I do. I feel appreGiated for my c.ontributions to u:. - and it is not just the money to whil.h I refer. !(ind words are spo\(en b'l fellow professors and staff members. enGouragement and 9uidanc.e is offered b'l administrators. and words of thanKs are spoKen by students strug91in9 with the diffil.U\ties of algebra and statistil.s. ~ometimes students thin\( of mathematil.s as "potholes in the road to suc.Gess." I \::now of their apprec.iation to someone who will offer gUidanc.e to maneuver between and over the diffil.Ulties. At the end of another da'f. I OGGaSionaU'I sa'l to m'lself. "NiGe job. nerd!" M'I efforts have been rewarded by the reGeipt of the Fullerton £.".c.ellenc.e in Teac.hing Award. not onGe. but twiGe. (Ma'lbe the'l should re-Ghu\( the qualifiGations?) There are alwa'ls losses in an'l venture "orth ta\::ing. Lost time and lost papers (where did I put those algebra papers I need to grade?) are some e)<.amples. The worst is the loss of friends who are no longer at u:. due to job Ghange or death. The toss is profound and unnerving. The'l were a part of my e)<.istenc.e here. but the essential wor\:: of teac. hin 9 and learning GOntin es. even as I embrac.e their memor'l
'Probabl'l best of all for me is the awareness that as I teac.h and wor\:: dail'l that I Gontinue to grow in my Knowledge of mathematiGf>. in my Gapac.ity to aSSist others in learning. and in advanGing the purposes of eduGation here at Ll..

Over the yeClrs, I have thoroughly enioyed being Cl PClrt of the criminClI iustice club. In being the active president of the club over the last two yeCl t·s, I have hqd the opportu n ity to experience many things. As a sophomore, I had the opportunity to present Clt the ACCldemy of Criminal Justice SCIences held in SeClttle, WClshington. The following year, I becClme a member of Alpha phi Sigma (NCltiot1al Criminal JustIce Honor Society) which Clllowed me as well as other members of the society to Clttend the ACJS Conference held in CinCInnati, OH. My senior yeClr, other riminClI Justice students, Clnd I had the portunlty to present Clmongst octorClllevel professionals at panels IClted to AmerIcan court systems. 150, throughout my years in the CriminClI Justice Club, I hClve had the opportunity to be in contClct with dIfferent Clgencies in the CJ Field in order to further the club's learning experIence. Over the yeClrs, as Cl club, we hClve hCld the opportunIty to visit iClils, go to the coroner's office, ride along with Cherokee County Police Officers, as well Cls visit the morgue. With the help of mClny criminal iustice students, as well as our dedicated f4culty members, the CriminClI Justice Club has been Cl very exciting and knowledgeable experience in order to better educate us students in the Widely-growing field of CriminClI Justice. /I

I never know when I will have a sudden burst of inspiration, but when I do I often delive r a wonderful work of arl:. I didn't always have a passion for arl: as I do now, but I don't think I could imagine a wo rld without it. I am able to express anything that I have on my mind at any moment; it has become sorl: of a stress reliever for me.

Sports are my life. Point blank. 5(1, ou could imagine my excitement when Igot aSSigned to do the sport's section for the yearbook. I have been involved with sports ever since Icould remember; from watching my brothers play, to having my dad coach, to playing softball, basketball, and volleyball all through my childhood. I basically eat, breath, sleep sports, which I love. Then on the other hand, my mother has veen into arts and crafts. She's done curtains and drapes, centerpieces, holiday decorations, and even scrapbooks for each of her children. She is a very creative person. Iconsider myself a perfect balance of sports and crafts, which is exactly what this yearbook section is all about. Mallorie Ward
Creating the sports section was exciting for me because sports at Limestone are extremely important. Ala rge majority of our student population are athletes. I have been a cheerleader for seventeen years, 51) 9ports have also veen a major part of my Ii . tiaving scrapbooking as our theme also ade doing the sports section more enjoyavle ~eOause I was able to make each individual sport .'lue in its own way. This made the book seem more ike YOUR book! Every year the yearbook is ,ble to capture important moments that ptJcurred. Many of the students will enjoy 10 . back 4t-tfrese memories that t he staff rrtamb helped Cr&1rte. Brittany J nson
