In an attempt to better understand the history of GYC Brazil and to talk about this year’s conference, Spectrum contacted Marlon Ávila to schedule an interview, which was initially readily accepted. However, when conversation resumed, Ávila apologized for the “unreflective” response.
Through reflections on his father’s life, Gary Chartier ponders the idea of seeing our fellow human beings from a different point of view.
Aren't all majors created equal? Humanities courses have struggled to find students for years, and the stigma we place upon them could be the issue. When I arrived at Southern Adventist University as a history major the reactions I received from other students about my field of study shocked me. Pre-med students often commented “Wow, all that reading!? I could never survive in that major.” This puzzled me because they had to regularly stay up all night to memorize chemical mechanisms, something I cataloged as objectively “harder.” But even if extensive reading is considered “hard,” that doesn’t correlate to respect for the humanities at Adventist institutions.
