This Spring, the 2022 Forrest Olympics returned with new challenges and a few minor changes. Instead of taking place over several weeks, the Forrest Olympics occurred within a two-week time span. However, this did not lower the amount of competition and enthusiasm from its competitors. The halls of Forrest competed for the bust of Richard A. Forrest, which is on display year-round in the Forrest Shop.

In the last two years, COVID-19 has forced the hibernation of one of Toccoa Falls College’s most beloved programs: study abroad. Pre-pandemic, a student could walk just about anywhere on campus and find posters advertising one trip or another. Studying abroad was a great way for students to gain real-world cultural experience while simultaneously earning class credit!

It is an exciting time whenever a new staff member joins Toccoa Falls College. This semester, TFC has the pleasure of introducing Danny Ringenoldus as the new Director of Student Engagement.

Victoria Almond sits down with Danny Ringenoldus in this article to get to know the man behind the recently epic SGA events.

As a time for all the Toccoa Falls College family to gather for a weekend, Homecoming 2022 was a success among the faculty and student body.

Every competition has to crown its champion, and every event must meet its end. The Forrest Olympics is no different, and on March 13, a victor was finally determined.

The halfway point of the semester is here, which means it is time for another Forrest Olympics update. Now five weeks into the competition that will determine which hall in Forrest is truly superior, new victors have emerged in the quest for eternal glory.

Bailey Maxwell is a current sophomore at TFC majoring in Early Elementary Education. This Spring 2021 semester, she is completing a Community Outreach SAO.

The Olympic Games is a tradition that dates back centuries that has always had a reputation for hosting the strongest and bravest athletes in a contest of skill and wit. During the two weeks of competition every two years, the best of their time step compete in the hopes of taking home a gold medal for their respective country.

Jordan Brown is the new Director of Spiritual Formation at Toccoa Falls College this year… Recently we were able to ask Mr. Brown some questions about his life, testimony, and vision for Toccoa Falls College.

The idea for the Laps for Amy Larson 5K started with prayer. As a few students circled around after class at the start of the semester, they felt God leading them to do more. Minutes later, they were knocking on Saylo Lor’s door to ask about potentially starting a fundraiser. Within the weeks that followed, word of supporting Amy spread like wildfire across campus.

Although Amy was not able to make it back to campus this semester, she remains as much an inspiration as ever before. When she was diagnosed with Lymphoma this past June, I remember her humble and trusting response. Out of all the worry and anger that could have consumed her, she chose to be more concerned for others than herself.

Toccoa Falls College has been home to many people over the years. Every year, TFC students, faculty, and alumni gather to spend a weekend, known as homecoming, together. Homecoming is always a great time for students to meet alumni and for the entire community to celebrate being able to call TFC home.

For many TFC students, the band Drakeford will sound very familiar. Husband-wife duo Drakeford (better known as Drake) and Lucy-Jayne Lanier are a talented couple that writes and performs songs that share their faith and story.

Campus Preview is an event that both current and prospective students look forward to every year. This year, Campus Preview is April 4-5. For high school sophomores, juniors, seniors, and their parents, the weekend is full of fun events.

The stirrings have been flying on campus as of late, and the rumors are true. Chick-Fil-A is coming to campus. The new chain in the restaurant will be replacing the Eagle's Nest.
