Today, the norm among workers in their 20s is to switch jobs every two years. But at Andrews University, many faculty and staff have spent the majority of their professional lives at this one institution. What has prompted that type of THE ANDREWS UNIVERSITY MAGAZINE commitment? Interim Editor Not all occupations are exciting, but they need to bring some type of fulfillment— Patricia Spangler (BS ’04) either in the form of a pay check, making a difference in other people’s lives, learning a new skill or being part of a team. Employees need to feel that they are making a Contributing Editors contribution to the overall success of their organization. Everything from developing Tami Condon (BS ’91) proper filing systems to teaching anatomy and physiology has an impact. No job is Brent Geraty (MA ‘91) insignificant. Jenny Tillay The effect of employee turnover on an organization can be substantial. In the posi- tive sense, it can bring an influx of new ideas and approaches, and often adding “new Designer blood” revitalizes and brings positive change. On the other hand, the cost of turnover Matt Hamel (AT ’05) definitely affects bottom-line performance. When an employee gives notice of their departure they are already mentally “checking out” and starting to concentrate on the Writers challenges of their upcoming position.

FEATURE FEATURE Lulu Lulu Wightman experienced a call to ministry early in her married life. Despite opposition from the con- ference to a woman’s involvement in ministry, but with Wightman the support of her husband, Wightman began her first evangelistic series in 1896. Her preaching and teaching ultimately resulted in a church plant of 26 members and, in 1897, this church was accepted into the New York Conference and Wightman was granted a ministerial license. Together with her husband, she continued her forgotten evangelistic work for the next decade, establishing 17 church plants throughout the New York Conference. In spite of Wightman’s success in evangelism, there were still those who questioned her place in ministry. This was evidenced by a letter from a Presbyterian minister objecting to a woman in the pulpit, as well as by the hesitation of the Conference to grant her ordination Women and a corresponding salary.

  • "Saint Liberty" Featured in Grand Rapids Artprize Painting by Andrews Artist-In-Residence, Greg Constantine
    "Saint Liberty" Featured in Grand Rapids ArtPrize Painting by Andrews Artist-in-Residence, Greg Constantine Campus News | Posted on September 27, 2018 By: Gillian Panigot, media communications manager, University Communication “Saint Liberty,” a painting by Greg Constantine, emeritus research professor of art and artist-in-residence at Andrews University, is featured in this year’s ArtPrize competition in Grand Rapids, Michigan. “Saint Liberty” is an 85” x 48” painting of the Statue of Liberty. Constantine used a ready- made “machine”—the mouths of paint tubes—to apply the colors in gestures directly onto the canvas, referencing July 4 fireworks celebrations. Written out in a collection of license plates at the base of the painting is the statement, “Give me your tired, your poor huddled masses yearning 2 breathe free. I was a stranger and u took me in.” Constantine hand-crafted the license plates from vacuum-formed plastic, then meticulously painted and distressed the plates, applying actual rust. “The ‘Statue of Liberty’ statue in New York harbor is as much a logo for America as the ‘Stars and Stripes’ flag and the ‘Star Spangled Banner’ national anthem are,” Constantine says. “She is the only one of the three that pleads for the relief of the suffering and downtrodden. She personifies freedom and liberty, therefore worthy to be called a saint.” In the late 1970s, Constantine worked on a series of paintings on the subject of American landmarks, including the St. Louis Gateway Arch, the White House and Niagara Falls. “Saint Liberty” was created in 1978 as part of this collection and was selected to be exhibited in the American Ambassador’s residence in Athens, Greece, during the 2004 Olympics.
