  • Lesser Feasts and Fasts 2018
    Lesser Feasts and Fasts 2018 Conforming to General Convention 2018 1 Preface Christians have since ancient times honored men and women whose lives represent heroic commitment to Christ and who have borne witness to their faith even at the cost of their lives. Such witnesses, by the grace of God, live in every age. The criteria used in the selection of those to be commemorated in the Episcopal Church are set out below and represent a growing consensus among provinces of the Anglican Communion also engaged in enriching their calendars. What we celebrate in the lives of the saints is the presence of Christ expressing itself in and through particular lives lived in the midst of specific historical circumstances. In the saints we are not dealing primarily with absolutes of perfection but human lives, in all their diversity, open to the motions of the Holy Spirit. Many a holy life, when carefully examined, will reveal flaws or the bias of a particular moment in history or ecclesial perspective. It should encourage us to realize that the saints, like us, are first and foremost redeemed sinners in whom the risen Christ’s words to St. Paul come to fulfillment, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” The “lesser feasts” provide opportunities for optional observance. They are not intended to replace the fundamental celebration of Sunday and major Holy Days. As the Standing Liturgical Commission and the General Convention add or delete names from the calendar, successive editions of this volume will be published, each edition bearing in the title the date of the General Convention to which it is a response.

  • Serving Society Is Only One of Higher Education's Functions, but It
    “We cannot lay claim to greater public investment - to which we must lay claim if we are to serve our function in a knowledge- intensive society that also sub- scribes to democratic values- unless we are seen to serve the public good”. National Forum on Higher Education for the Public Good “Serving society is only one of higher education’s functions, but it is surely among the most important. At a time when the nation has its full share of difficulties...the question is not whether universities need to concern themselves with soc- iety’s problems but whether they are discharging this respon- sibility as well as they should.” Multidisciplinary perspectives on higher education for the public good.

  • Engaging Students and the Community Through Study Abroad, Service-Learning, and Civic Engagement Chapter 7
    Section II: Engaging Students and the Community through Study Abroad, Service-Learning, and Civic Engagement Chapter 7 “To Share With All:” Vida Scudder’s Educational Work in the Settlements Julia Garbus Abstract: Vida Scudder, a progressive-era professor and activist, created community programs to share her intellectual inheritance. The first, College Extension, teaching “high” culture to immigrants, was ultimately unsuccessful and undoubtedly condescending. However, in the long-lasting, successful Circolo Italo-Americano, Italian immigrants and Americans met for debates, concerts, parties, and lectures. Italian newcomers and long-time Bostonians governed the group together. The Circolo fostered cross-cultural friendship and mutual learning. n a speech during Smith College’s 25th anniversary celebration, alumna Vida IDutton Scudder championed the idea that college-level education or “intellectual privilege” should be available to everyone, uniting society instead of dividing it: We can tolerate no fixed class of the intellectually privileged; we demand that our colleges and universities be in the truest sense centers of democracy, and that from them proceed ceaselessly influences seeking to share with all, the gifts which they impart…. Learning itself, alas, acts too often as a dividing rather than a uniting force, adding to all other distinctions that final, most inexorable distinction between the literate and illiterate. (as cited in McManus, 1999, p. 118) 99 Critical Issues in Higher Education When she made the speech, Scudder had spent two decades trying to make colleges “centers of democracy” and creating programs to “share with all” the gifts her Smith experience had given her. In this article I introduce Vida Dutton Scudder, describe and critique the educational programs she started at her settlement house, and use her experiences to suggest principles that may apply today.

  • Copyright 2014 Janine Giordano Drake
    Copyright 2014 Janine Giordano Drake BETWEEN RELIGION AND POLITICS: THE WORKING CLASS RELIGIOUS LEFT, 1880-1920 BY JANINE GIORDANO DRAKE DISSERTATION Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in History in the Graduate College of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, 2014 Urbana, Illinois Doctoral Committee Professor James Barrett, Chair Professor David Roediger Associate Professor Kathryn Oberdeck Associate Professor Jonathan Ebel ABSTRACT Between Religion and Politics: The Working Class Religious Left, 1880-1920 makes two main arguments: First, through an analysis of socialist print culture and party meeting minutes, it argues that Christianity animated socialist culture in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. Moreover, wage earners within socialist circles, and especially the emerging Socialist Party of America, used these working class spaces as their alternative to a church. They preached and prayed together, and developed a socialist Christian theology of cooperation, personal sacrifice, and a future “Christian Commonwealth.” While the Socialist Party of America was by no means a Christian Socialist movement, it served as a welcome spiritual home for the many working class Christians who melded their socialist convictions with their faith. Christian, Jewish, and agnostic socialists worked together under the banner of the emerging Socialist Party of America. By 1912, the number of socialist Christians outside the churches was so great that the new Protestant denominational federation, the Federal Council of Churches, organized a series of nationwide campaigns to root out socialists from industrial workforces and draw politically neutral Christians into the churches. Second, the project revises our understanding of the rise of Social Christianity.

First and foremost, I’d like to thank the reference librarians (in particular, Sarah Hutcheon) at the Schlesinger Library, Radcliffe Institute, Harvard University for their eagerness to help me locate archival materials on Denison House. Likewise, I’d like to thank the archivists (especially, David Klaassen and Linnea Anderson) at the Social Welfare History Archives, University of Minnesota, for assisting me with the voluminous South End House data as well as offering useful local information on where to dine, what museums to visit, and which buses carried passengers fastest through the city of Minneapolis.
