Richard Lesher. Residing in Loma Linda at the time of his death earlier today, Dr. Lesher served as president of Andrews University from 1984-1994. Dr. Lesher was a consummate Christian gentleman, highly respected for his authentic faith, professionalism and calm, committed leadership of Andrews University. As we enter the Sabbath hours, we ask that you join us in prayers of comfort for the Lesher family and those close to them in this time of sadness. Sincerely, Andrea Luxton President   Note: A more formal announcement/life sketch will be posted on our website next week.

Coming from La Sapienza University of Rome, Ronza was drawn to the Middle East in general and Jordan in particular for the country’s Roman stone architecture and the adaptation of Roman urban design to existing cities. “I started studying Petra’s architectural orders and that became the subject of my dissertation,” she told The Jordan Times in a recent e-mail interview.  ...The next summer, right after her graduation, she volunteered with the Tell Hisban project, conducted under the leadership of Professor Oystein Labianca from Andrews University in Michigan. “At Tell Hisban, I started to be exposed to the concepts of community archaeology and sustainable development, which became my passion years later,” the architect said, adding that she moved to Jordan in 2001.   <<< Read the full story at <a href="http://www.jordantimes.com/news/local/italian-jordanian-architect-pushes-community-archaeology">jordantimes.com</a> >>> Thu, 17 Aug 2017 19:40:26 +0000 100th Year Alumni Reunion http://www.andrews.edu/agenda/46888 South Bend Junior Academy is celebrating its 100th year this September 23 and 24, 2017.

Thu, 17 Aug 2017 16:37:23 +0000 What Is to be Done with Difficult Scripture? http://www.andrews.edu/agenda/46880 Michiana Adventist Forum Presents What Is to be Done with Difficult Texts of Scripture? with Dr. Herold Weiss Emeritus Professor and Former Chair Catholic Department of Religious Studies Saint Mary's College Notre Dame, Indiana Saturday Afternoon at 3:30 pm August 26, 2017 Biology Amphitheater Price Hall Andrews University Berrien Springs, MI Free and Open to the Public About the Speaker Inline image 1 Dr. Herold Weiss is a native of Montevideo, Uruguay, who graduated from Southern Missionary College (now Southern Adventist University), the SDA Theological Seminary and Duke University. Since 1965 he has been a resident of Berrien Springs while teaching at the SDA Theological Seminary (1965-69), Saint Mary's College, Notre Dame, IN (1969-01), and enjoying a most satisfying retirement. During these years he had seven books and 14 pear-reviewed articles published. Besides, many of his articles have appeared in Adventist publications, and for three years he was a monthly columnist at Spectrummagazine.org. He has two grown sons and four grandchildren. About the Topic Dr. Weiss has provided several questions to introduce his topic: Is the Bible quite open to a plain reading? Why are some texts considered difficult? Is the interpretation of difficult texts required? Or, should they be ignored? Is it required to interpret all texts consistently by one and the same method? Is it possible to interpret texts without presuppositions? What does the Bible itself say about its origins?
