  • The Dream Is Ours to Fulfill Bruce C
    Bruce C. Hafen at the Annual University Conference, August 1991. Courtesy Mark A. Philbrick/BYU. The Dream Is Ours to Fulfill Bruce C. Hafen Alma once described Zarahemla in a way that also describes Brigham Young University: "We are thus highly favored, for we have these glad tidings [the gospel] declared unto us in all parts of our vineyard" (Alma 13:23). That blessing would not be possible for us at BYU or for us as LDS people if it were not for so many who live lives of conscientious devotion to the Lord, to his Church, to his truth, and to the well-being of this community. We don't begin to have the problems other large institutions have with drugs, violence, sexual harassment, dishonesty, and other threats that are often encountered in the world. Yet our high expectations make it doubly tragic when one of us does disappoint our community interests. Our aspirations include a commitment to the equal worth of every person, male and female, regardless of one's station in life. To that end, men should go out of their way to listen to women, and women to men, to see things through each other's eyes. No one should be more sensitive to the individual concerns and perceptions of others than those who approach their stewardship "by persuasion, by long-suffering, by gentleness and meekness, and by love unfeigned; By kindness, and pure knowledge" (D&C 121:4142). Regarding mutual support and cooperation between staff and faculty, it impresses me that BYU has not followed the recent pattern of other universities, whose costs in support areas have risen faster than their academic costs.

  • Rel a 122H: INTRODUCTION to the BOOK of MORMON (Alma 30–Moroni 10) Winter 2009, Section 45 MW 10–10:50 A.M., 178 JSB
    Dr. Eric D. Huntsman Associate Professor of Ancient Scripture 316-L JSB, ext. 2-3359, [email protected] Consultations: MW 11–11:50 a.m.; TTh 9–9:50 a.m. TA: Chris Dawe, [email protected] Rel A 122H: INTRODUCTION TO THE BOOK OF MORMON (Alma 30–Moroni 10) Winter 2009, section 45 MW 10–10:50 a.m., 178 JSB Course Description: Rel 122 is a sequential study of the doctrines, principles, and narrative of the Book of Mormon, beginning with Alma 30 where Rel 121 ended. As “the most correct book,” the Book of Mormon demands our attention both as scripture and as an ancient text, particularly regarding matters of faith and the gospel of Jesus Christ. Accordingly, we will study the Book of Mormon both as another witness of the Savior and as a source for the foundational doctrines regarding the Atonement and the Plan of Salvation. As a text, we will work to appreciate the literary artistry of its authors and abridgers, identifying its structures, imagery, and themes. Above all, this paramount book of scripture will be studied as a testament of the Lord Jesus Christ with the intent to understand his divine mission more fully and to understand and appreciate the Atonement. Rel 122 is taught in harmony with university and course standards (see Appendix A). Course Objectives and Learning Outcomes: This section of Rel 122 has three major objectives, which are in harmony with the College of Religious Education’s Learning Outcomes (see Appendix B): • First, to increase the student’s knowledge of the Book of Mormon—that is, to familiarize him or her with the basic storylines, characters, and concepts in this book of scripture (a factual learning outcome).
