Christianity and the Soul of the University
Dates: Mar 25, 2004 - Mar 27, 2004
Hosted by: Council of Christian Scholarly Societies

The Council of Christian Scholarly Societies, of which InterVarsity is a member, is sponsoring a major conference, "Christianity and the Soul of the University: Faith as a Foundation for Intellectual Community."

Among many other panels on the program is one organized by InterVarsity's Emerging Scholars Network: "Spiritual Formation throughout the Academic Life."

Plenary speakers include:

Jean Bethke-Elshtain
Joel Carpenter
Richard Hays
David Lyle Jeffrey
John Polkinghorne.

From the conference program description:

As John Henry Newman expressed well in The Idea of a University, theological reflection is not peripheral to the academic enterprise, but constitutes a fundamental feature of education in its fullest sense, whatever one's disciplinary affiliation. We hope to underscore in this conference the enduring place that Christian faith should hold as scholars consider how they are called to intellectual labor and how they regard their disciplines.

For complete schedule, registration, and travel information, please visit the "Christianity and the Soul of the University" website.

Location:
Baylor University
Waco, TX
