The UDHR lays out 30 rights that ought to be honored for every human in every nation of the world. These include the right to freedom of thought and faith, the right to recognition as a person before the law, the right to a family and a nationality, and the right to work and education.

Health Considerations For The College-Bound
Article about medical issues that need to be addressed when young adults leave home for college.
http://healthlink.mcw.edu/article/1028054516.html

Extractions: A: This is can be a very stressful and exciting time for parents and the soon-to-be college student. There are clear medical issues that need to be addressed as well as others that pertain to independence and responsibility that, if dealt with now, can make the both the transition to college and the first few months a rewarding experience. One very basic issue is making sure that all immunizations are up to date. This includes a serious look at whether or not you want your young adult vaccinated against meningococcal meningitis. It seems as though every year, a small number of college students who usually live in close quarters contract this type of meningitis, leading to an occasional fatality. The vaccine provides reasonable protection against the most common strains of this potentially serious illness, with a low risk of vaccination side effects. I would recommend obtaining it. Tetanus vaccinations need updating every ten years and if that period of time has elapsed, a booster would be indicated. Make sure that you have proof of measles/mumps/rubella (MMR) vaccination as the college may require that as a condition for admission.

Extractions: Email: David_Wulff@wheatoncollege.edu Psychology B.A., Wittenberg University (Ohio); M.A., Ph.D., University of Michigan; Th.D. (honorary), Lund University, Sweden. Personality psychology (including theories of personality and methods of assessment); psychology of religion (history, theories, research methods, and philosophical issues); phenomenology of everyday experiences. My published scholarly work is mainly in the psychology of religion, including my book, Psychology of Religion: Classic and Contemporary (2nd edition; Wiley, 1997). Current projects include the preparation of a collection of my essays on the psychology of religion for republication, the development of a psychology of the conservative mind, and a reassessment of the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator, a remarkably popular assessment device inspired by the psychology of C. G. Jung. In most of my courses, from the basic introductory course to my laboratory in personality assessment, I accent the wide range of perspectives that make up contemporary psychology, from the rigorously scientific approaches at one end of the spectrum to the qualitative-interpretive approaches at the other. My course in the psychology of religion likewise represents a diversity of views. But one of my courses is entirely given over to descriptive-interpretive perspectives: "Experiencing: The Phenomenology of Everyday Life" is a study of phenomenological psychology as it may be applied to a variety of everyday experiencesincluding reading and writing (the course is writing intensive), driving a car, and occupying a hotel roomas well as to experiences that are foreign to most of us, such as being autistic or totally paralyzed.

http://cesc.montreat.edu/GSI/GSI-Conf/Mini-Grants/Messiah.html

Extractions: Coalition for Christian Colleges and Universities Global Stewardship Initiative Report on Global Stewardship Initiative Project Submitted by Roger Johnson Messiah College I have completed the syllabus and preparations for a new course in environmental economics which I will be teaching this Fall of 1996. The course currently has an enrollment of 21 students. The class is an introductory level economics course, which will use environmental issues as a means of introducing students to the basic tools of economic analysis. The course will use a case study approach. I am enclosing a copy of the course syllabus which contains more information relative to the content and structure of the course. ECO 117 ISSUES IN ENVIRONMENTAL ECONOMICS Required Texts: (T) Tietenberg, Tom, Environmental Economics and Policy, NY:Harper Collins, 1994. Course Description: There has been an increased awareness of mounting problems with regard to our treatment of the environment and the need to act as faithful stewards of creation. The growing awareness of the scope and severity of the problems has also been accompanied by an increased awareness of the complexity of the problems. Unfortunately, public discourse often focuses upon simplistic, emotionally charged responses. If there is to be any meaningful progress, however, there must be a creative and informed dialogue that draws in individuals with widely diverging ideological, cultural, theological and disciplinary perspectives. From a disciplinary perspective, it is significant that practitioners of the natural sciences have often been leaders in voicing environmental concerns. One of the other key voices in the dialogue has been the discipline of economics. Economics has been called upon, often in a decisive role, as a tool for defending or attacking proposed policies.
