The town of Westminster has a great relationship with Western Maryland College. The college has ac- tually become a part of the community. GET THE POINT? There is always a time when a college student just has to get off campus. The area around a college must be willing and able to support the needs of the students. We go to town on foot, on bikes, and in cars. The quaint shops along Main Street are inviting, and the proprietors don't mind browsers. Cranberry Mall is full of stores that appeal to us. There are nearby picnic areas for Sunday afternoons. One of the best things, though, is that Westminster gives us the opportunity to give back to the community. Col- lege students have part-time jobs in town. Organi- zations do service projects at nearby farms and par- ticipate in programs at the mall. The students at WMC become an integral part of Westminster throughout the school year. To"yR..,.., Boy Scouts lead the show. The rade comes down Main Street college every year. This year the Sig Eps represented WMCin the parade. Community
