When a young evangelist named
Billy Graham opened his
v,i u.iauv in v^uiuiuuici z. / ycais
ago, 100 USC students made
commitments to Christ.
Graham has come a long way
since then, and campus Christian
organizations arc hoping the internationally
known minister will
have an even greater impact on
college students when he returns
1 w April 25-May 2.
"Billy Graham is a worldwide

symuui ui evangelism, said
Terry Brown, the state coordinator
for Campus Crusade for
Christ. "This is a great opportunity
for our different Christian
student groups to use the crusade
as an outreach tool to reach
students for Christ at USC."
The crusade not only helps
people to learn about Christ,
Brown said, but also draws
? Christians on campus together.
) W "When you look at the overall,
big picture, it's a testimony that
Christians can work together for
a common cause," he said.
He said groups have cosponsorcd
several events on campus in
preparation for the crusade, including
a rally at the Baptist Stu1
dent Union two weeks ago and
1 weekly prayer meetings Tuesdays

With Prayer Triplets, three
people pray for nine friends to
accept Christ, while Operation
Andrew is a plan for Christians i
to invite seven friends to the
crusade.
"I think the crusade will help
us make Jesus more of an issue at
USC," Laughton said. "The
visibility and acceptance of the
crusadc. as well as the whole
ecumenical year at USC, has
helped some of our more timid
people learn to share their faith.
It's really provided a more
natural avenue for them.
"We're really excited about
how the Billy Graham Crusade
could impact the campus for
Christ, and help us grow
spiritually, too, by working
together and witnessing the
power of prayer."

The key to the continuation of outdoor
concerts with major bands is student participation,
not money, said Fddie Daniels,
Carolina Program Union associate director.
"We don't anticipate making money or
breaking even. We're not here to make
money," Daniels said. Students have already
paid for CPU-sponsored programs through
activities tees, he said.
Therefore, money made or not made from
this year's outdoor concert featuring Survivor
and Jason and the Scorchers will not determine
whether or not the CPU will have
another big concert.

The total cost of the concert was $20,000.
While final figures on the budget arc not complete.
Daniels said 917 student tickets were
sold at $3 each, and 391 public tickets were
sold at $7 each, for a total of $5,488.
CPU's Contemporary Sounds committee
that sponsors concerts, was allocated $16,300
for the 1986-87 academic year. In addition to
the outdoor concert, Contemporary Sounds
has sponsored concerts by The Call and Beat
Rodeo this school year.
If Contemporary Sounds docs not at least

Daniels said.
Daniels said Contemporary Sounds will
probably not be in debt from this concert.
"We planned and budgeted so we won't have
those deficits."
Daniels said the diversity of the two bands
may or may not have been a factor in the lack
of student attendance.
"I think that can work one of two ways,"
he said, adding that diversity could draw in
more people, but on the other hand it could
keep some away who like one band, but not
the other.
