...vote authorizing such a project was taken, but the committee agreed that it appeared to fall within the rubric of independent study. Seltzer was asked to return after a period of experimentation to discuss the success of the project...
...methodology or style of thought. What it does mean no one has yet been able to specify. Some Soc Sci and Hum courses present a cross-departmental overview of an area. Others treat important topics that do not fall clearly in any department. Still others use the Gen Ed rubric to introduce the student to the great men and books of Western Civilization. They all, however, share a common purpose: to interest the beginning student in broad academic topics that are in that area, central to the understanding of an area, ill-covered by any department, and essential...
...with such 19th century artists as William Morris, the members of the arts and crafts movement in England, and the art nouveauists, who all felt a messianic urge to put art into everyday items.

The Episcopal reasoning is that people should not receive the sacrament together if they do not agree on what it signifies. But observance of the confirmation rubric varies widely from church to church, and two Lambeth Conferences of Anglican Bishops (1920 and 1930) have stated that it does not "necessarily apply." Only about two-thirds of the nation's 3,587,000 Episcopalians have gone through the ceremony of confirmation, in which they testify to their...
