It’s a privi- lege to see amazing aculty acilitate awareness and commitments, while simultaneously observing students’ excitement or new realizations and discoveries. Trough a number o dierent con- texts—the biweekly chapels, musical perormances, or simply interacting in the dining hall—I hear stories o learning through thinking and doing. CMU’s recent graduation ceremony or the class o 2014 saw 80 students complete their CMU journey. Some will continue on in their studies, while others enter the workplace in a variety o interesting and meaningul occupations. Te theme or this issue is “learning through thinking and doing,” and is one o the commitments that characterize CMU’s programs and activities. “Although theoretical analysis remains central, comparative prominence is given to experiential learning (e.g. practica, Outtatown, co-op, intern- ships) in a manner which shapes both thinking and ethics/living.” Tis Blazer speaks to the importance o learn- ing through thinking and doing as an institutional modus operandi and a by-product o the CMU experience. Evidence abounds that CMU’s stated emphasis on thinking and doing or enhanced learning is eec- tive and essential—be it rom the perspective o Earl Davey, our outgoing Vice President, Academic, on the importance o engagement; the perspective o an alumna drawing upon her lessons at CMU to carry out peacebuilding work in the Philippines; or aculty emeriti “Doc” Schroeder and his wie who have dedi- cated their working lives and resources to ensuring that CMU’s mission continues. It is ftting to end with a quote rom our outgoing and always colourul Coordinator o Student Advis- ing, Adelia Neueld Weins, who points out the CMU dierence: “CMU’s... approach—in which students learn through theological inquiry, integrative thinking, and practical application—creates versatile, highly employable graduates equipped to make a dierence in their community and the world.” Kevin Kilbrei Director, Communications & Marketing B e
