academic
areas,
such
as
the
arts
or
sciences.
During
the
last
week,
specific
disciplines
received
attention,
with
all
recognizing
that
certain
subjects
lend
themselves
much
more
naturally
than
do
others
to
a
faith
and
learning
mix
in
the
classroom
(literature
as
opposed
to
math,
for
example).
In
his
closing
remarks,
Dr.
Humberto
Rasi,
assistant
director
of
education
for
the
General
Conference,
expressed
his
appreciation
for
the
quality
of
both
the
discussions
and
the
papers
presented,
saying
that
some
of
the
participants
would
themselves
be
lecturers
at
future
institutes.
Union
College
will
continue
to
host
these
institutes,
where
a
second
session
last
summer
featured
an
international
group
of
educators.
Already
the
library
there
has
an
impressive
collection
of
books
and
papers
on
faith
and
learning
integration,
a
holding
that
will
soon
reach
a
total
of
several
hundred.
But
what
had
the
participants
them:-
selves
to
say
about
the
first
institute?
Unanimous
praise
went
to
Dr.
Wagner
and
the
whole
college
staff
for
providing
comfortable
accommodations,
delicious
food,
and
helpful
computer
hours
and
assistance,
all
in
a
genuinely
hospitable
environment.
Several
participants
acknowledged
preinstitute
skepticism,
wondering
if
the
organizers
would
make
all
participants
leave
thinking
the
same
things
in
the
same
ways.
But
as
one
teacher
said,
“I
detected
no
hidden
agenda.
