  • “The Pioneer's Heart: BYU-Pathway at Year
    BYU-Pathway Worldwide Devotional September 24, 2019 “The Pioneer’s Heart: BYU-Pathway at Year 10” Clark G. Gilbert President of BYU-Pathway Worldwide Introduction I’m standing near the mouth of Emigration Canyon, where the first pioneers entered the Salt Lake Valley. “Those early pioneers brought a spirit of [humility and] frugality, a faith and optimism for the unknown, a longing for prophetic direction, and a spirit of personal sacrifice to their trek west.”i Today I would like to talk about how the Pioneer’s Heart shaped the development of BYU-Pathway and how it Can shape you on your own eduCational journey. The Creation of BYU-Pathway This year marks the 10th anniversary of the creation of BYU-Pathway Worldwide. LaunChed in 2009 as a simple pilot in three loCations with just 50 students, BYU-Pathway now touChes the entire ChurCh with over 45,000 students in more than 100 Countries. It was not by aCCident that BYU-Pathway would grow out of BYU-Idaho, an institution with its own pioneering heritage.ii The earliest concepts for Pathway were foCused on building a bridge to College through life skills Courses and job-foCused CertifiCates. Elder Kim B. Clark, then president of BYU-Idaho, sought counsel on those early impressions from the ChurCh Board of EduCation. Approval was granted to run limited pilots in Mesa, Arizona; Nampa, Idaho; and New York City. The Board’s decision to limit the early pilot sites proved providential because our early assumptions were a little bit right and a little bit wrong, and we needed time (and the humility) to learn and adapt.

  • Fall 2019 Learning Evaluation the Theme of This Portfolio Is to Exemplify Precision, Alignment, and Organization
    Portfolio of Work Matthew Stoddard Fall 2019 Learning Evaluation The theme of this portfolio is to exemplify precision, alignment, and organization. I felt like that was my biggest hurdle in print publication. The process of making content look and feel organ­ ized is no simple matter. It requires patience, persistence, and a willingness to learn and stretch your creativity. My understanding of those ideas has grown during this course. For instance, I learned how to better align content using grid lines in the InDesign program. I discovered how to line up col­ umns of text using a baseline grid, or even adjusting them in small increments of leading. I even learned how to create my own grid and gutters with proper margins. From that, I saw how to properly organize pictures with their associated captions or text. I especially learned the importance of organization and preci­ sion when it comes to cleaning up and copy fitting text. I saw how things like optical alignment, justifying text, and avoiding eyesores, like widows or orphans, makes a world of difference. I also saw how removing unnecessary white space or using proper characters produces a more polished piece. My skills of InDesign have definitely improved in those areas. Since I had to do it many times, cleaning up or copy fitting text has almost become second nature to me. In this portfolio, I think my magazine feature turned out the best. The reason is because it was the culmination of everything I’d learned in print publishing. Using correct margins, having good line lengths, choosing a good serif/san­serif typeface, utilizing proper hierarchy, accurately implementing the paragraph and character styles, taking advantage of layers, color correcting the images, etc.

That Wardle is the granddaughter of the venerable western and Mormon muralist is inconspicuous, and with exacting detail, Wardle has created the most important work to date about Minerva Teichert. Published in conjunction with the exhibition of the same name at Brigham Young University's Museum of Art, Wardle's masterful work is a precisioned arrangement of not only a credible biography and evocative coffee table book of 47 color plates, but also a comprehensive chronology (including an extensive catalogue raisonne), and Teichert's never-before published autobiography. It might be expected that a monumental treatment of Teichert's story by a family member, and published by Brigham Young University, would be a pallid re-telling of the spiritual side of Teichert, akin to a 1940s Relief Society manual; but Wardle freely narrates the salty side of Teichert as well as detailing some noteworthy disappointments in her life. However, Wardle resists writing an extensive account of many of the stories that have been re-told for decades. Yes, in her youth, Teichert slept with a gun under her pillow. Yes, she worked as a trick roper while studying in New York. 0 | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 Yes, she often used her children's dates and any others who happened by the modest Cokeville, Organization Spotlight: Provo Wyoming home as models for some of her massive A Future for the Provo Gallery Stroll? and forceful murals.

  • RSC Style Guide
    Religious Studies Center Style Guide, 1 October 2018 Authors who submit manuscripts for potential publication should generally follow the guidelines in The Chicago Manual of Style, 17th ed. (Chicago: The University of Chicago Press, 2017) and Style Guide for Editors and Writers, 5th ed. (Salt Lake City: The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, 2013). This style guide summarizes the main principles in the other style guides and lists a few exceptions to their guidelines. Formatting 1. Use double-spacing throughout the manuscript and the endnotes. Use one-inch margins, and insert page numbers at the bottom of the page. Use a Times New Roman 12-point font for both the body of the manuscript and the notes. Use only one space after periods. 2. If you have images, add captions and courtesy lines (such as courtesy of Church History Library, Salt Lake City) to the Word file. However, do not insert images in the Word files; submit them separately. Images should be 300 dpi or better (TIFF or JPG files). File names and captions should match (Fig. 1.1 = chapter 1, figure 1). Headings 3. Update: Include headings to break up the text. First-Level Headings First-level headings should be flush left and bolded, as in the example above. Capitalize internal words except for articles (a, an, and the), conjunctions (and, but, or, for, so, and yet), prepositions, and the word to in infinitive phrases. Second-Level Headings Second-level headings should be flush left and italicized. Capitalize like first-level headings. Third-level headings. Third-level headings should be italicized, followed by a period, and run in to the text; capitalization should be handled sentence-style (capitalize the first word and proper nouns).

Champoux: Wise or Foolish Wise or Foolish Women in Mormon Biblical Narrative Art Jennifer Champoux isual imagery is an inescapable element of religion. Even those Vgroups that generally avoid figural imagery, such as those in Juda- ism and Islam, have visual objects with religious significance.1 In fact, as David Morgan, professor of religious studies and art history at Duke University, has argued, it is often the religions that avoid figurative imag- ery that end up with the richest material culture.2 To some extent, this is true for Mormonism. Although Mormons believe art can beautify a space, visual art is not tied to actual ritual practice. Chapels, for exam- ple, where the sacrament ordinance is performed, are built with plain walls and simple lines and typically have no paintings or sculptures. Yet, outside chapels, Mormons enjoy a vast culture of art, which includes traditional visual arts, texts, music, finely constructed temples, clothing, historical sites, and even personal devotional objects.

  • Mormon Abstract
    Abstract http://www.mormonartistsgroup.com/Mormon_Artists_Group/Abstract.html Welcome What's New Works Glimpses Events Freebies About MAG Contact Mormon Abstract by Stephanie K. Northrup January 2010 [i] When you think of Mormons “pushing the envelope,” what comes to mind? Deacons at the door collecting fast offerings? Try Bethanne Andersen’s The Last Supper (Place Setting). Many beautiful renditions of the Last Supper already exist, telling the story through dramatic lighting, facial expressions, and body language. Andersen tries a new perspective. She paints the dishes from which Christ eats His last mortal meal. That’s it. No people. Just us – invited to put ourselves in His shoes. The dishes are painted in soft pastel, as if on the verge of fading. This is a fleeting moment, like mortality, as He sits with His friends before making the ultimate sacrifice. By pushing the envelope, by throwing a new image at us that makes us consider the story in a new way, Andersen invites viewer participation. What a great approach to “likening the scriptures.” While Greg Olsen, Del Parson, and Simon Dewey are household names, ask most Mormons to name an abstract artist in the Church and you’ll probably get blank stares. Do Mormons make abstract art? We do. And we have been for a long time. In 1890, the church sent John Hafen and other “art missionaries” to Paris. Their assignment was to improve their skill so that they could create art for the Salt Lake Temple. What did these artists return with? Impressionism! Bright, thick brush strokes replaced traditional refined detail.
