It is expanded considerable with the aim of including information that may not otherwise be readily available. The intent is to produce a handy and timely “go-to” document of information about the University's student, faculty, staff, resources, and activi- ties. As such, it will be of interest to various University stakeholders, including prospective and current students and their families, alumni, our faculty and staff, state and local governments, and others having general interest in the University. The information has been complied by the University’s Office of Institutional Research, but the report draws on broad resources and personnel across the University, whose support is much appreciated. Your comments and suggestions are welcomed, and these may be emailed to [email protected] .

  • Prophetic Prolepsis and Peace” by Rev
    “Prophetic Prolepsis and Peace” By Rev. Elizabeth D. McLean, Prince of Peace Presbyterian Church 12-9-18 Second Sunday of Advent Based upon Luke 1:57-80; Rom. 14:17-19 Last week we began the Advent season by hearing the prophet Jeremiah’s hope-inspiring assurance that God keeps God’s promises. This week, Zechariah, a priest who lived about 600 or so years after Jeremiah, celebrates those promises fulfilled both with his name, which means “God remembered” in Hebrew, and with his song, which has been known throughout the centuries as “the Benedictus” after the first word of his proclamation in Latin. Luke wrote his birth narrative like a musical, in which the key players burst into song as spontaneously and uncontrollably as the characters in the great Rogers and Hammerstein classics do. Mary hears the news she’s going to bear a Savior, and she starts to sing. Zechariah is so moved at his son’s naming ceremony that he too, cannot help but sing. No one knows if they really sang a note or spoke a word in those moments, of course, but the canticles about the Good News that Luke put on their lips have lifted hearts and inspired minds for millennia. Zechariah, as I told the children, was John the Baptist’s father. One of the reasons he was so happy at John’s naming ceremony is that he was finally able to speak or sing after nine months of holy silencing. The angel Gabriel had rendered him mute for the duration of Elizabeth’s pregnancy because when Gabriel had announced that Elizabeth, who was both old and barren, was going to bear a son who would be “great in the sight of the Lord,” Zechariah had had the nerve to ask, “How will I know that this is so?” For the record, Mary asked almost the same thing when Gabriel told her she was going to bear the Savior of the world, and she was not punished for her inquiry.

  • Apollo 8: the Mission That Changed Everything Martin W. Sandler
    Apollo 8: The Mission That Changed Everything Martin W. Sandler Reviewed by: Ryan Eng, 15 Star TeenBook Reviewer of Be the Star You Are! Charity www.bethestaryouare.org “Apollo 8: The Mission That Changed Everything,” is a nonfiction book detailing the events leading up to the Apollo 8 moon mission, the events during it, and the events after it. The book explains the importance of Apollo 8, a mission that consisted of performing the first journey to the moon and orbiting it, without attempting to land humans on it. People would land on the moon on Apollo 11 following soon after 8. The book is laid out in a way that I found to be a little bit confusing at times. It alternates between the narrative of the main story and other pieces of additional information that appear on blue pages splitting up the story. Sometimes these pages break up sentences into 2 pieces pages apart. This can make you lose your train of thought and forget what you were reading previously. This is especially true if like me, you read the blue pages as they appear so that nothing is missed. If you skip them and continue the story it will flow as it should. As this book seems to be geared towards children (based on the font size, page size, images), this seems like it could be confusing for less experienced readers to understand. Overall, the book is still captivating despite how much attention I’ve brought to one setback of it, evidenced by the fact I finished it in one sitting.
