EMORY – It’s tough for Emory & Henry College freshman Joel Font to find free time in his weekday schedule.

Besides maintaining a 3.5 grade-point average, he volunteers as a tour guide for the college admissions office, plays on four of the college’s eight intramural sports teams, sings in the school choir and participates in Bible studies.

He has thrown himself into his college experience, never mind that it’s the first school he’s ever attended.
