BC campus as we gear up for our big Homecoming Week celebration. 2 EXCEPTIONAL: the BELLEVUE COLLEGE magazine Eager students attend the first Bellevue Community College orientation. Celebrating 50 Years ...of making a difference Dear Bellevue College Family and Friends. Bellevue College is poised to be an even greater innovator in higher education both globally and nationally. We are indeed celebrating 50 years of making a difference. This issue of Exceptional includes a myriad of vignettes and stories that affirm our presence and leadership within student achievement, academia, workforce development, the arts, international partnerships and more. Our collectivist approach to serving the greater Eastside and beyond is reflected in a diverse array of new bachelor’s degrees, collaborative programs with Coding DoJo and our Business Training Institute’s partnership with Alaska Airlines. Creativity reigns supreme via Professor Eric Davis’ RAP 101 lecture that combines the best of all worlds linking interactive multimedia with music and poetry to fuel critical thinking. The world is introduced to the uniqueness of the Pacific Northwest in “Bezango, WA,” a film that features an award-winning music score by faculty member Dr. Brian Cobb. BC’s newest reach and influence extend beyond our local borders to the Democratic Republic of the Congo underscoring two decades of student and faculty exchanges that now include partner institutions in over 51 countries. Our collaboration with Japan will include hosting 40 students for a three-day nurse training program in October. The financial impact of our international students further strengthens the local economy, generating 26.5 million dollars and supporting 150 jobs in Congressional District 9. Extraordinary students, noted alumni, faculty and staff are telling BC’s story as professional athletes, actors, nationally acclaimed scholars, journalism fellows and Margin of Excellence honorees. We will introduce yet another first early next year as TEDx comes to BC. Take a few moments to read the amazing offerings in our magazine. I think you will be energized, entertained and most importantly encouraged to join in the celebration of a half-century of truly being the community’s college. Your continuous support of Bellevue College makes these stories come to life. Thanks to you, dreams are coming true for over 33,000 students each year. We’ve only just begun this journey of exceptional service and educational empowerment. Stay tuned – the best is yet to come. Go Bulldogs! Warmest Regards, Gayle Colston Barge, Ed.D.

  • Film Review: the Passion of the Christ (Director Mel Gibson 2004)
    114 Australian Religion Studies Review Film Review: The Passion of the Christ (Director Mel Gibson 2004) Ecce Vir: Conceit, Homophobia and Irony in Gibson's Passion Michael Carden, University ofQueensland My favourite Jesus film is Pier Paolo Pasolini's "The Gospel According to St. Matthew." Mel Gibson's Passion shows that it still takes a gay Marxist to make an effective movie about Jesus. Passion hit the cinemas on a tide of controversy. Arguments raged over the film's violence, possible anti-Semitism and the question of Gibson's own traditionalist Catholic perspective. This latter point particularly bemused me, as the film seemed most eagerly expected and promoted by conservative evangelical Protestant communities. I am not a fan of Gibson as an actor and have not seen most of his films, but, as a biblical scholar, I knew that I had to see the film. Furthermore, as I regard most Jesus films as being too sanitized in representing his execution, I was interested in seeing a film that claimed to show it as it was. Finally the film offered the rare prospect of being played in Latin and Aramaic. However, like the Tower of Babel, the film failed in this conceit, which was symptomatic of a deeper problem. Playing the film in Aramaic and Latin irked me as an attempt to conscript a documentary sense to what was on screen, to make the screen into a window into 30 CE Jerusalem. No film, no text is a simple window onto an unmediated and uninterpreted reality and Gibson's film had not only to harmonize the differing gospel accounts but was also partly based on Katherine Emmerich's 19th century visionary accounts.

  • PAOC -- Message Points As of 2.2.18
    Message Points PaulMovie.com PAUL, APOSTLE OF CHRIST – In Theaters Nationwide Easter Wednesday, March 28, 2018. BIG PICTURE THOUGHTS ● Tagline: Their faith challenged an empire. Their words changed the world ● Two men have been friends for years. ● The first—Jewish, passionate, a scholar. ● The second—Greek, reserved, a physician. ● Both are brilliant writers. ● Both are convinced that a crucified rabbi will change the world forever. ● And both are willing to risk their lives for Him. ● WHERE SIN ABOUNDS. GRACED ABOUNDS MORE. SYNOPSIS SHORT SYNOPSIS In PAUL, APOSTLE OF CHRIST, Luke risks his life to visit Paul, who is held captive in a Roman prison under Nero’s rule. Together, they struggle against a determined emperor and the frailties of the human spirit in order to live out the Gospel of Jesus Christ and spread their message to the world. LONG SYNOPSIS PAUL, APOSTLE OF CHRIST is the story of two men. Luke, as a friend and physician, risks his life when he ventures into the city of Rome to visit Paul, who is held captive in Nero’s darkest, bleakest prison cell. But Nero is determined to rid Rome of Christians, and does not flinch from executing them in the grisliest ways possible. Before Paul’s death sentence can be enacted, Luke resolves to write another book, one that details the beginnings of “The Way” and the birth of what will come to be known as the church. Bound in chains, Paul’s struggle is internal. He has survived so much—floggings, shipwreck, starvation, stoning, hunger and thirst, cold and exposure—yet as he waits for his appointment with death, he is haunted by the shadows of his past misdeeds.

  • The Passion: a Celebration of Suffering
    The Passion : A Celebration of Suffering DREW STEINER This time, the guards reach for the flagellum, a wooden handle dangling strips of leather: attached to it are blades, razor sharp blades. They show it to Jesus, taunting him, before they begin. And then, with a wave of the over - seer’s hand, the torture starts all over again. The guard reaches back, flagel - lum in hand, and swings; the blades rip across Jesus’ side, and blood sprays from five gashes. The count has begun. “Two!” He gasps, his breath taken away by the horrific pain. “Seven!” He cannot stand anymore, but they do not stop. His skin is torn to ribbons, but still they do not stop. “Ten!” The blades stay lodged in his side this time, and as the guard pulls away, flesh and blood fly from his body. They laugh. The count continues. “Sixteen!” There’s hardly any skin left on his back. “Twenty-Two!” More. “Twenty-Seven!” More. “Thirty Five!” Finally, the overseer stops them. Jesus lies on the ground, his body torn apart, but at last there is this moment of respite. A guard comes over and undoes one shackle but leaves the other locked; he flips Christ over. The next strike slashes his stomach, and blood sprays over the guards. The count begins anew. It is this terrible violence that preoccupies much of Harvey Blume’s essay “Hammer,” in which he discusses the similarity between Mark Burnett’s real - ity television programming and Mel Gibson’s The Passion of the Christ ; he believes each to have an “aesthetic or narrative fundamentalism” (109).
