    Higher Education Conference Slated for Ghost Ranch 
 
    by Jerry L. Van Marter 
 
LOUISVILLE, Ky.-Ghost Ranch Conference Center in New Mexico will be the 
site of a major conference on the Presbyterian Church's mission in higher 
education.  The conference, the third in a series of Ghost Ranch 
conferences on higher education ministry, is scheduled for July 6-12. 
 
    Titled "Faith, Learning, and Living: Now and into the Third Millenium," 
the conference will explore current issues in higher education.  A primary 
focus will be the classic interplay between faith and learning, practical 
applications of that interplay for living and what moral responsibilities 
flow out of that interplay. 
 
    Specific topics for discussion include "Historical and Contextual 
Perspectives: Where Are We and How Did We Get Here?"; "Re-Formed Faith"; 
"Teaching and Learning Styles for a New Time"; "Faith-Informed Learning"; 
and "Faith-Informed Living."  Papers will be prepared in advance on each of 
these topics and will guide the discussions of the conference. 
 
    More information may be obtained by calling the Rev. Harry Smith at 
(505) 995-0556.
