The gas station across the road is called \u201cthe rip.\u201d Additionally,\u00a0one of our\u00a0coffee\u00a0shops\u00a0in town, called Beans-n-Cream, is shortened to \u201cBeans.\u201d If you implement these abbreviations in your speech, you will sound just like a\u00a0Cedarville\u00a0student\u00a0in no time!<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;134233117&quot;:false,&quot;134233118&quot;:false,&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335551550&quot;:1,&quot;335551620&quot;:1,&quot;335559685&quot;:0,&quot;335559737&quot;:0,&quot;335559738&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:0,&quot;335559740&quot;:360}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 aria-level=\"2\"><span data-contrast=\"none\">Cedarville-Specific Events<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;134245418&quot;:true,&quot;134245529&quot;:true,&quot;335559738&quot;:160,&quot;335559739&quot;:80}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">One of my favorite things about Cedarville is its on-campus events.
