Campus Ministry Update
April 2008
Trends in Student Ministry, Culture and Higher Education:
Virginia Tech – One Year Later: Many articles have been written about Virginia Tech over the last year. The school shooting has affected the nation, and marked the lives of those in Blacksburg indelibly. At the one year anniversary, we again pray for the many women and men who minister on the campus of Virginia Tech (and NIU and to friends and loved ones affected by the shootings across the nation). Thank you for your faithful witness.
** Join the Ivy Jungle Network Group on Facebook** Right now check out a link to 90 titles Campus Ministers have been reading this year: http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=13424091882
College Life Post Virginia Tech: One year after the tragic shootings, three themes dominate the news stories about Virginia Tech. 1.) Gun Control – both sides of the gun debate have rallied support with some calling for students to be allowed to carry concealed weapons and others calling for more stringent gun bans. 2.) Campus Security – this has become big business and an important item for school's to address with parents and students alike. 3.) Mental Health – schools have already reported increases in use of mental health services by students. The shootings have placed even greater priority on staffing. Legal questions about intervention and privacy issues are also prominent. (US News and World Report April 16, 2008)
Students Who Want Guns: The group Students for Concealed Carry on Campus boasts more than 25,000 members who believe that college students who have the right to carry guns in their states, should also be able to do so on campus. Utah is currently the only state that allows students to carry concealed weapons on campus, although 9 others are now considering the measure. Proponents believe armed students could deter gunman or stop a killing spree. However, most administrators and law enforcement officers stand against the measure. Police are particularly concerned that once they do arrive on campus, they would not be able to distinguish a legal gun carrier from someone intent on murder. (CNN April 15, 2008)
Calvin Students Protest Armed Campus Security: Calvin College, a Christian school in Michigan, has recently passed a plan that would allow its three campus security supervisors to carry a gun. The move makes Calvin the first private college in West Michigan to allow armed campus security. However, several dozen of the school's four thousand students have marched in protest to the move believing that guns have no place on their campus at all. Even arming just 3 of the more than 40 campus security personnel is too much for them. (Grand Rapids Press, April 17, 2008)
Adding Low Tech Security: Over the last year, hundreds of campuses have put into place measures to use cell phones, text messages, and email to notify students on and off campus in the case of an emergency. In addition, a number of campuses are also adding low tech measures including loudspeakers and sirens as safety measures. Others have reconfigured campus wide "blue light" emergency telephones to broadcast emergency messages. (USA Today April 15, 2008)
Sex and the Soul: A new book by Donna Freitas of Boston University explores the link between student sexual behavior and spirituality. Her results, published in Sex and the Soul: Juggling Sexuality, Spirituality, Romance and Religion on America's College Campuses (Oxford University Press), show that students generally fall into two categories, the "spiritual" and the "evangelical." While evangelicals predominantly pursue purity, those who consider themselves "spiritual" are much more immersed in the college "hook up" culture. Freitas found no difference between private secular, public, and Catholic schools, and was surprised to see that for most who considered themselves "spiritual"," their spirituality had little impact on their choices and behavior related to love and sex. Many students did express regret over their choices. By contrast, Freitas found that students at evangelical institutions had a more integrated view of their spirituality which made a difference not only in their behavioral choices, but also allowed them to articulate a more complete view of sexuality in general. (Inside Higher Ed April 15, 2008)
Moving to Coed Rooms: Over the last few decades, single gender dorms have become hard to find on a college campus. Many moved to coed floors, coed suites, and coed bathrooms. Now a number of schools have instituted coed rooms. Approximately 30 campuses now have rooms that are officially shared by male and female roommates. Schools who have made the switch say that gender-blind dorm rooms are more inclusive and acknowledge modern realities. Most of the schools discourage romantically involved students from rooming together, but maintain that such choices are up to the students. Critics say coed rooms are one more indicator of the eroding morals on the college campus. (Chicago Tribune April 6, 2008 sec. 1 p. 6)
Not Worth a Million Dollars: Charles Miller, who once headed Margaret Spelling's Commission on the Future of Higher Education, has vocally criticized that oft quoted figure that a college degree is worth a million dollars more in income over the course of one's working life. The figure has been used by many to justify the high cost of going to college. Miller has criticized the College Board for propagating the figure, saying it is greatly exaggerated. Miller contends that when factors such as the cost of education are factored in, the number of working years lost to study and those who go on for higher degrees are factored out, that undergraduate degree may only be worth about 25% of the million dollars. If tuition prices continue to skyrocket, even the College Board concedes that a degree might not be cost effective in the long run. (Inside Higher Ed April 7, 2008)
US News May Change Survey: US News and World Report has asked 1600 high school guidance counselors to fill out surveys as part of their ongoing ranking of US colleges and universities. However, the magazine has not yet decided whether or not they will incorporate the results into their annual school rankings. In addition to asking high school input, the magazine has expanded their President's survey to include a request for schools that are "up and coming" and has asked for input on methodology and future categories. A number of college presidents have said they intend to boycott the survey and object to the annual rankings. (Inside Higher Ed April 9, 2008)
Facebook Adds Instant Messenger: Facebook Chat, the new IM chat system for the popular web portal, is now a standard feature for all 69 million Facebook users. Using their existing, "Friends" lists, Facebookers will be able to type messages back and forth in real time with the new feature. Tech analysts believe the new feature will mean stiff competition for AOL, whose AIM is the most popular instant messaging tool. Some expect that Facebook may quickly surpass Google's chat service because Facebook has such a large number of users who are constantly logged on to their accounts. (CNN April 8, 2008)
MySpace Goes Korean: In an attempt to expand its global reach, MySpace has announced plans to launch a Korean based version of the social networking site. South Korea already has a number of local social networking sites and has historically been hesitant to jump on US websites (S. Korea is one of the few global markets where Google is not the number one search engine). MySpace has already launched a Spanish language site primarily targeting Latinos in the US and has plans to offer a site specifically for India later this year. (AP April 16, 2008)
Dating 08 – Phone Pix: Teenagers are increasingly using their cell phones to transmit provocative pictures to would be love interests – or even unsuspecting recipients. Police and school officials have expressed concern that nude pictures have become part of teenage courtship. Sometimes these pictures find their ways to public websites or are forwarded to other students. Counselors are concerned that girls believe they have to be provocative to get the attention of boys. School officials are amazed at how "normal" most students view the behavior. (CBS.com April 14, 2008)
Drinking 21: The practice of drinking 21 drinks on one's 21st birthday has been gaining popularity among college age men and women. More than 80% of Americans drink to celebrate their twenty-first birthday. Among those more than one third of men and nearly a quarter of women report drinking at least 21 drinks that day according to a report published in the Journal of Consulting and Clinical Psychology. Researchers say that many who attempt the feat post videos and photos online of their celebration. However, many do not realize the inherent danger of consuming so much alcohol, often in a relatively short period. In some cases just 10 drinks can result in a blood alcohol level of 0.30 - nearly quadruple the legal limit for driving and a level at which the respiratory system slows down and death is possible. (New York Times April 8, 2008)
Prescription Drug Abuse: College students are at the heart of the demographic abusing prescription pain killers the most. Of the 2.2 million people who started abusing pain relievers in the past year, the 18-25 year old demographic was the highest. Use of narcotics other than heroin by college students increased from 7.4% to 8.8% over the last year, largely due to increased use of painkillers such as Vicodin and OxyCotin. These drugs are easy to come by, as many students find them in their home medicine cabinets or can order them online. Because they are legitimate medications, many students perceive them to be safer than street drugs. However, medical experts are especially worried because prescription pain medications are highly addictive. (Wall Street Journal March 25, 2008 D1)
Cutting Access: A skit at Yale Law School features a student who comes into a classroom and begins to deal out cards for a game of solitaire. When questioned by the professor, the student replies, "My laptop is broken." For many professors and students alike, the humor is found closest to the truth. Students are often doing a number of things on their computers, and only sometimes taking notes. Schools are starting to strike back. Few professors will outlaw laptops, though some have begun to do so. A growing number are banning internet access in the classroom. The University of Chicago Law School became one of the latest to switch off its wireless access points in classroom buildings. Students are largely unhappy. Professors hope they are paying better attention in class. (Inside Higher Ed April 18, 2008)
AIDS Tent On Campus: Christian campus groups have teamed up with World Vision to give students a glimpse of what it is like to live as an HIV infected person in sub-Saharan Africa. The Acting On AIDS campaign is a ministry of World Vision that allows participants to make their way through an interactive, hands on experience housed in a large tent and guided by a portable mp3 player. Often sponsored by several Christian groups on campus, the AIDS tent allowed hundreds of students to not only see what HIV is doing to the African continent, but also take action through writing prayers or other ministry sponsored opportunities. (Daily Bruin April 16, 2008)
Battling Juicy Gossip: Students at Princeton have sought to counter online juicy gossip with the "Love Wall." Using screens in student dining areas, the love wall projects positive statements, images, and "shout outs" to students on campus. The effort is part of a broader "Own What You Think" campaign which hopes to combat the anonymity that has made sites like juicycampus.com popular. (April 15, 2008)

GracefulTools.com - Web Applications to Serve Campus Ministry
In campus ministry we want to spend less time on a computer and more time with people. But too often scheduling, organizing events and coordinating follow-up take time away from evangelism, disciple making, sermon preparation and life-on-life ministry.
Do these problems sound familiar?
- Individual appointments – "I am trying to schedule times with seekers and new believers and I end up emailing back and forth 5 or more times just to find a time to meet."
- Group Meetings – "Our leadership team takes a half hour trying to schedule the best time for our regular meetings."
- Event Registration – "It is such a hassle to set up conference registrations, collect payments, administer scholarship and organize rides."
Gracefultools.com started as a way to help campus workers serve students more effectively.
Find the best meeting times – setup online event registration – organize follow up –encourage community resource sharing – create or improve your website

Spiritual Formation and Leadership Development: There are two key resources for free spiritual formation and leadership development that we believe will be fruitful for college ministry.

Registration is free, and all of the content online is free as well. This is a great place to send leaders for resources for further growth, and offers materials like guided prayers and spiritual disciplines for personal or group use. Check out Metamorpha.com and start asking deeper questions about what it means to grow into the image of Christ.
The second resources is a free study guide that goes along with the book Metamorpha: Jesus as a Way of Life by Kyle Strobel. The study guide and leaders guide are available at www.JesusAsAWayOfLife.com. Downloading the guide will give you an opportunity to look through the material and see if this book and guide would be a useful tool for leadership and spiritual development among your staff and student leaders.
