He also holds membership in various scholarly organizations and professional organizations, mostly related to his work in archeology. In his introduction to the faculty and students of AUC on May 2, Dr. Geraty made a brief statement about what he envisions life at AUC to be. Part of that statement is quoted here: "I see us as a diverse community, recognizing and celebrating our dif- ferences but working together in unity as a family toward a com- mon goal. I see us as a worshipping community where lives and service are dedicated to God and His will for us. This means that we, our policies, our programs, have to be guided by Christian principles and standards. I see people as more important than institutions, and I hope that all the time the regulations and the institution will serve the students' and faculty's interests. I see us as a family, where people who are affected by a decision, will be involved in reaching those decisions. I see us as an intellectual community where thinking can flourish; where we are not mere- ly reflecting other people's thoughts. A place where excellence is fostered; a place where ideas can be expressed, remembering always our Christian context. I see us as a healthy, vibrant com- munity where the concept of wellness pervades our curriculum and activities, where the benefits of the Adventist way of life are demonstrated. I see AUC not only as an exciting place but a safe place, a place where students are safe socially, spiritually, physically and academically; safe enough to do a little risking now and then so that they can grow and mature." Dr. Geraty also announced that the Board of Trustees has voted an additional million dollars in subsidies over the next four years for AUC. About a half million of that amount will be available next year for renovation of the dormitories and mar- ried student housing. He has also expressed a concern about the high cost of college education. In relation to this, the board has also voted a $500 scholarship to each returning AUC stu- dent for the 1985-86 school year and has recommended a $300,000 scholarship fund be set up specifically for students. Dr. Geraty is married to Gillian Keough who is a piano teacher. They have two children, Julie who is 20 and Brent who is 18. They are planning to move to New England sometime this summer. Dr. Geraty will officially assume his new responsibilities on July 1. Dr. Geraty in authentic Arab headgear on one of his many trips to the Middle East.

The Geraty family. (L. to R.) Brent, Dr. Geraty, Gillian and Julie are unbelievably hardy—tolerating cold, dampness, and endless walking and swimming. When hatchlings, only hours old, are led to water, their first instinct seems to be to dive, and they will swim farther than you'd think possible under water. The gander is very aggressive in protecting his nesting mate and both parents guard the young. In eight weeks they look like their parents. Before June 20, all adults (except those rare ones still nesting) shed their flight feathers and by the time they have grown new ones (usually by late July), the young can fly with them. When ice again covers the marsh- es, lakes and rivers, they head south where they can glean the harvested cornfields or graze on winter wheat or other grasslike plants. In recent years it has become common to raise Canada geese in government hatcheries and by private individuals (Federal and State permits required), and many areas have a resident population the year round. We have lived where this is true and fed them from goslings to adulthood in our yard. We have called them out of the sky to swim with us in the stream where they grew up with us. I once made a nest near our home that was immediately appropriated by the Canada geese and where they hatched a brood. I have some nesting now. But, whether they hatch in my yard or grow up in the wildest of wild, when they fly over honking and I see their The Thrilling Call powerful flight, I still get the same thrill that I knew as a boy in Maine when they irresistibly drew our eyes to the sky and we of Wildness watched 'til we could hear their call of wildness no more and they had disappeared into the hazy distance. When at last, after months of silence, we hear the rush of rivers again and bare patches appear in the fields, a thrilling sound of wildness drifts down from the sky. Sometimes it is faint and faraway—sometimes it comes closer—and becomes a loud clamoring a few hundred feet above our BIRTHRIGHT OR LENTILS? heads. Always it has an element of mystery because it speaks of a world inaccessible to us, a world, not limited to roads or land, far beyond the haunts of man. It can be heard anytime of day or night, in fog or bright sunshine. Nothing can quite compare with the call of the Canada goose. We look up, which is always good to do, and see them dimly through the misty clouds, or their V formation or long skeins way high in the sky—early morning, at sunset or silhouetted against the full moon. The long northern winter is ending. The Canada geese are heading for their nesting grounds. Some will go north of the arctic circle, to the Hudson Bay or the tundra. Almost im- mediately they will start nesting on a gravel bar by a river or high in a pine tree in an osprey nest. There is a large popula- tion near Loveland, Colorado, that have learned to nest in manmade nesting boxes atop eight- or ten-foot poles, away from ground predators such as coyotes. Normally, they lay five to seven four-inch-long white eggs two days apart, covering them carefully with small sticks or whatever rubbish is near, and eventually with down plucked from their bellies.

Here it indicates clearly that those tance than the things of God. who live in close fellowship with God have a staying power—they abide. Recent research done in California shows that the longer a person spends in a Seventh-day Adventist educational institution, the more likely he is to "abide" with the church. This finding is in harmony with Proverbs 22:6 which says, "Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it." If the Adventist educational system is seen as an ongoing evangelistic program that helps to motivate, inspire, train, and keep our young people in a saving relationship with Christ, the tremendous importance of a religious education over a secular one becomes valued.

THE DISEASE OF SUBSTANCE ABUSE, PART I IGNORING THE PROBLEM

Karen Steele MacDougall, M.A., C.A.C.

Janet was a science teacher in a small ten-grade school. After her first year of teaching, she found it difficult to keep up with the lesson plans and constant discipline needed in the classroom. Finding sleep impossible after her action-filled days she began to feel tired most of the time. A friend suggested the remedy of a small glass of wine nightly to help her un- wind. Although it was against her religious beliefs she eventually tried this and found a magical cure for her insomnia. If the stress increased, the size of the drink increased pro-

June 11,1985, Vol. LXXXIV, No. 11 19 AN IDEOLOGICAL UNDERCURRENT-II BY Earl W. Amundson, President Atlantic Union Conference

In the last issue we spoke of the Humanist Manifesto II docu- ment which is a radical attack upon religion and education for the purpose of transforming America into a secular and collectionist state. We offer a few additional comments. This document, published in 1973, states: "We deplore the divi- sion of humankind on nationalistic grounds. .. . The best option is to transcend the limits of a national sovereignty and to move toward the building of a world community. . . . Thus we look to the development of a system of world law and a world order based upon transnational federal government. . . . We thus reaffirm a commitment to the building of world community, at the same time recognizing that this commits us to some hard choices." The above quotes, taken from a longer paragraph in the docu- ment, is an outright assault upon the American government, our free society, and upon individual freedoms. It is a plan to develop a one-world government—socialistic communism—nothing less. Reading on in the next paragraph, we read these chilling lines: "This world community must renounce the resort to violence and force as a method of solving international disputes. We believe in press. All of these agencies spread abroad their message of anti- the peaceful adjudication of differences by international courts religious hedonism via a dedicated minority of secularists who re- and by the development of the arts of negotiation and compromise main unidentified as such. . . . .

Our young people are suffering from the diverse political, ideological, and moral viewpoints. They openly fatigue, anxiety, and exhaustion that result from attempting to attack the church by stating: "We urge that parochial loyalties and manage their own lives without the guidance of God or religion—a inflexible moral and religious ideologies be transcended." "The condition carefully nurtured by the Humanist cartel and unfor- true revolution is occurring and can continue. . . but this tunately ignored by many parents.
