Von Schrock listens to instructions for Biblical Literature. Don Blosser leads a discussion in Christian Community. Moral Philosophy was a popular class in the Bible and religion department. For the first time the class was taught by the first incumbent of the endowed chair in philosophy, former president J. Lawrence Burkholder. The department also spon- sored the first Moral Philosophy chair lecture on peace and pacificism by Bowl- ing Green University professor and author Don Scherer. The Bible and religion pro- gram has given me a broad base through a presentation of a wide variety of theologies, said senior David Miller. We are able to get outside a strictly Mennonite perspective. The bottom line is, the Hispanic Ministries program at Goshen College has succeed- ed in educating leadership for the Mennonite Church, read the Hispanic Ministries depart- ment's seventh-year evalua- tion. Students visited Spanish- speaking churches in Iowa and Pennsylvania as part of this leadership preparation. I appreciate the program's flexibility, said sophomore Noel Santiago. We don't just learn in the classroom. We visit churches and keep in touch. The Hispanic church needs more professionals and I feel this is what my classes are preparing me for. lllll Il

Prof. of Biology A Larry Yoder ing Center The biology department gives students the strongest possible background for whatever field they choose, said professor of biology Jonathan Ftoth. It is no wonder, then, that GC ranked 42 out of 1500 colleges in the number of graduates completing Ph.D.s in the life sciences, or that over ninety percent of the graduates who apply to medical school get accepted. For marine biology students, a new laboratory in Layton, Florida was completed and dedicated on May 3. I enjoy studying in an en- vironment flavored with academic excellence and Christian values. Personal rela- tionships with both students and professors help to focus my perspectives in biology, said junior biology major Kevin Graber. In the chemistry department a hands-on approach to using scientific instruments is en- couraged where students rather than professors operate instruments in labs. When much scientific research is defense related, one must consider the ap- propriateness of a scientific vocation. With my tools of thought sharpened by the demanded precise thinking, I can creatively allow my faith, instead of the Department of Defense, to give direction, said senior chemistry major Jim Martin. i Director of Merry Lea Environmental Learn
