Never has a college student faced such bound- less opportunities for selfish gain on the one hand nor such dire human need on the other. The secularism of our age creates a desire for personal aggrandizement and stimulates an in- terest in securing it. True Christian culture, on the contrary, clearly establishes Christian serv- ice as the true end of life and commands obedience to it. Pursuit of personal gain yields transitory beneiits to the individual, but it often works contrary to the best interests of the world community. Christian service sometimes creates temporary difficulties and disappointments. In the end, however, it leads to integration of the individual personality and to the glorious world goal of advancing the Kingdom of God. Thomas Carlyle once reminded his readers that in each of us dwells a coward and a hero. We live in a day that demands the greatness that comes through shunning the cowardly acceptance of the norms of a materialistic civilization and ac- cepting the challenge of heroism through Chris- tian service. -Carl Kreider A truly liberal education must mean primarily the development of ideals and appreciations. To this basic task all else is secondary. In college, and certainly in the Christian college, we build the faith men live by, however much we also create skills and tools. But this process carries a grave danger, that we confuse intellectualiza- tion with life, and make thought the equivalent of action. To propose ideals without commit- ment is dangerous. This Hnal and unrestricted commitment of life to the highest is the crown- ing glory of the Christian college. May it be the glory of Goshen College. -H. S. Bender page fifteen
