Calvin Collegeさん Read remembrances of the fall of the Berlin Wall from Calvin staff and faculty ahead of an event this weekend hosted by the Calvin history department. Any Calvin Facebook fans who were there for the momentous event two decades ago?

Our apologies to the Germanic languages department which is actually hosting the Berlin Wall event this coming Sunday, not the history department. The Calvin history department is great too, but in this case we need to give Germanic languages its proper due. Thanks too to the folks who have taken the time to comment here about their experiences with the wall. Always interesting to get the perspective of Calvin Facebook fans.

For those who would like a student perspective on how Calvin addresses faith and evolution see this blog called An Evangelical Dialogue on Evolution and a post today by a Calvin grad now a Ph.D. student at Michigan. It's well worth reading, especially the last two paragraphs under Evolution and My Faith.

Calvin Collegeさん Guess this is the week for Calvin professors to be in the Wall Street Journal. :-) Marjorie Gunnoe, a psychology professor, weighs in on the spanking-kids debate.

Three studies on spanking claimed that it impairs cognitive development in children. Yet statistical analysis of spanking's effects are clouded by many factors.

Agreed. We have a pretty amazing faculty. Marjorie has done her own spanking research and found interesting differences culturally in terms of how spanking works. She has other colleagues in psychology who study alcohol abuse in adolescents, religious formation in teens, birth defects, sleep patterns. Lots of good stuff. See:
