Student Presentations Examine World Religions
A pair of public presentations on world religions will take place at Alma College.
Students in Kathryn Blanchard’s “Introduction to World Religions” class
will make two identical presentations on Hinduism, Buddhism,
Confucianism, Judaism and Islam from 7 to 8 p.m. Tuesday, April 10 and
8:30 to 9:30 a.m. Wednesday, April 11 in the Dunning Memorial Chapel at
Alma College.
“The course was designed with a service learning component, whereby
teams of students, who are mostly from Christian backgrounds, are
becoming ‘expert-learners’ in a religious tradition other than
Christianity in order that they might then teach others,” says
Blanchard.
The students will give brief presentations, followed by informal
posters sessions and refreshments. Attendance is free and open to the
public.
