CAM PUS GOMIINITY Baha’i Studies
In this age of reason and technology that we are now im- mersed in, many age old conflicts
are now to the point where they a
have no choice but open con- frontation, or meet each other in unity.
One of these conflicts which mankind has imposed upon-itself is that of science vs. religion. Are we to refuse to believe that the world is over 4 billion years old (the time of Adam is estimated at 10,000 BC.) or are we to allow our consciencness to believe that only the fit survive? That there is no purpose to our existence and
that nothing matters? In this article the ABS at UPEI would like to briefly examine science and religion. ‘
Religion has two main parts, (1) the spiritual (2) the practical. The spiritual but never changes, it is eternal. All the prophets have taught the same spiritual law and one code of morality. Unfortu- natly the practical side has often overcome the more important spiritual side, where the reality of our being lies. As a result, it is often stated that being religious is obeying rites, ceremonies and
adhering to theories whether or not they make sense to the logical
and rational mind.~-One of the many principles of the Baha’i Faith is the accordance of science and religion. These may be seen as the two wing of man’s intelligence. “Should a man try to fly with'the ~ ' wing of religion alone he would quickly fall into the quagmire of superstition, whilst on the other ‘ hand, with the wing of science alone he would make no progress but fall into the despairing slough of materialism.” .

ConVocation:
Lund.
Next Convocation at the Uni— versity of Prince Edward Island is set for May 1986, and already an invitation is extended to Islanders from the ’University’s Senate for names of candidates to be con- sidered for honorary degrees.
Although many honorary degree recipients have been dis— tinguished Islanders, several holders of doctor of laws degrees from the Island university have been outstanding Canadians from other provinces, including author Hugh MacLennan, zoologist David Suzuki, the late former prime minister John Diefenbaker, and artistic director/dancer Alan
A memorandum from Michael F. Hennessey, University secre- tary, states that “in accordance with Senate procedures all sub- missions are to be made a) with supporting documentation, such as an updated cirriculum vitae at least of a preliminary nature; and b) with a care for the fact that the nominee may be asked to address Convocation.”
Submissions should be sent to the Registrar for forwarding to the Honorary Degree Committee before October. 31. Mailing ad- dress is: Registrar, UPEI, 550 University Ave., Charlottetown,

Soc/Anthro Club comes back to life
Yes, it’s true — life has been restored to a body that has been diagnosed as clinically dead at the end of the 1984-1985 year. The
u Sociology-Anthropology Club suffered greatly in the past year from inertia and plain old lack'of members. However, as of Sept. 25, 1985, the group has regained official club status and is once
again a force to be reckoned with.

The Club is open to anyone who is taking a Sociology or Anthropology course. Member- ship fee is $3.00 and can be given to Doug MacDonald, secretary- treasurer of— the Club, or to Judy
