The fifth annual Faith and Knowledge Lecture, hosted by the SDU Institute of Christianity and Culture will feature Dr. Catherine E. Clifford, a professor of systematic and historical theology in the Faculty of Theology at Saint Paul University, Ottawa. The lecture begins at 7 pm, Thursday, October 26 in the SDU Class of 1954 Lecture Hall of UPEI鈥檚 School of Sustainable Design Engineering.

Five hundred years ago, Martin Luther posted his 95 theses, calling for reform of the Western Church. The debate that ensued, combined with the social and political conflicts of the day, resulted in profound ecclesial division. For fifty years, Lutherans and Catholics have engaged in official theological dialogue in an effort to mend the wounds of separation. This lecture will explore the significance of the joint commemoration of the Reformation amid a number of important advances in Lutheran-Catholic agreement.

Dr. Catherine E. Clifford鈥檚 research interests and publications are focussed primarily in the areas of Catholic ecclesiology, ecumenism, and the history of the Second Vatican Council. She holds an honours BA in religious studies from the University of Waterloo (St. Jerome鈥檚 University), a graduate certificate in ecumenical studies from the Ecumenical Institute of Bossey, Switzerland, and a licentiate in sacred theology from the University of Fribourg, Switzerland. She completed her PhD in theology at the University of St. Michael鈥檚 College, Toronto. She has authored, co-authored, edited and translated nine books and published numerous articles in scholarly reviews. Her publications have received awards from the Catholic Press Association and the Association of Catholic Publishers.

Dr.  Clifford has served on the executive board of the Catholic Theological Society of America (2015-2017), on the steering committee of the International Network for Societies of Catholic Theology (2008-2014), and on the board of the North American Academy of Ecumenists (2003-2006; 2015-). She is presently co-chair of the Vatican II Studies Group in the American Academy of Religion, and Director of the Research Centre for the study of Vatican II and 21^st Century Catholicism at Saint Paul University.

Dr. Clifford鈥檚 ecumenical activities include participation in the Global Christian Forum (2016-) and membership in the Methodist-Roman Catholic International Commission (2017-). Within Canada, she has participated in a working group of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in Canada and the Canadian Conference of Catholic Bishops for the Joint Commemoration of the Reformation (2015-2017), and was, for many years, a member of the Anglican-Roman Catholic Dialogue of Canada (1993-2014).

Last Sunday鈥檚 game was very tight. Mount A will be looking to gain back the two points. This is an important game for both teams.鈥�

The men hit the ice again Saturday at 7:00 pm, this time with a rematch against Acadia University. The Panthers dropped a game 6鈥�0 to the Axemen just last week. MacPherson believes his young team is up for the challenge.

UPEI鈥檚 Centre for Education Research (CER) is hosting a presentation by Dr. Dawn Wallin, professor and associate dean of undergraduate programs, partnerships, and research in the College of Education, University of Saskatchewan. Her talk, 鈥淐hanging Tides: Perspectives, Problems and Possibilities,鈥� begins at 5:30 pm, Thursday, November 2 in the Alex H. MacKinnon Auditorium, room 242 of UPEI鈥檚 Don and Marion McDougall Hall.

The pace of change in schools and post-secondary institutions has increased significantly in the last two decades, affected by restructuring efforts on provincial, national, and global fronts. This presentation will discuss how some of these efforts have impacted teaching, learning, and leading in local environments. Though some succumb to the seduction of the 鈥渄ark side鈥� of change through negative paralysis or bitterness, it has always been in the perceived 鈥渄arkest of days鈥� that active engagement and advocacy for a better future assert themselves with each single action of hope. This presentation is one of 鈥渞ealistic optimism鈥� for the education profession, one that keeps at its centre the value of human dignity, the importance of community, and the privilege and responsibility we hold as educators to learn with, and from, the children and youth who will inherit a world filled with the consequences of our actions鈥攐r inactions.

Dr. Dawn C. Wallin specializes in educational administration and leadership, and her areas of scholarship include educational leadership, rural education and governance, and equity issues in education. Dr. Wallin has held a number of leadership and administrative positions in K-12 and post-secondary contexts and has worked extensively with ministries of education and leadership/teaching organizations in Manitoba, Saskatchewan, and Texas. She has served as the vice-president of the Canadian Society for the Study of Education, and president for the Canadian Association of Educational Administration and the Canadian Society for the Study of Women and Education. She is the co-author of the book Understanding Canadian Schools and co-editor of a book to be released this spring entitled Transforming Conversations: Feminism and Education in Canada Since 1970.
