Journeys of Mind & Faith features Dr. Mayumi Derendinger Contact: Rob Eisele, 816-415-7574 February 25, 2008
Dr. Mayumi Derendinger, assistant professor of mathematics at William Jewell College, will present a free lecture in William Jewell’s “Journeys of Mind and Faith” series at 7 p.m. March 25 in Room 222 of the Yates-Gill College Union on the campus in Liberty, Mo. The public is invited to attend, and no tickets or reservations are required. Dr. Derendinger’s topic is “The Communion of Saints.”
Dr. Derendinger received her B.S., M.S. and Ph.D. degrees from the University of Alabama-Birmingham. She joined the William Jewell faculty in 2004.
The “Journeys of Mind and Faith” series addresses the tension often inherent in addressing questions of faith and intellect.
“As a Christian liberal arts college, William Jewell has at its disposal the uncommonly conjoined resources of intellectual inquiry and faith,” says series coordinator Dr. Milton Horne. “This series takes advantage of those resources to present to the community the stories of individuals whose Christian and intellectual journeys, while not yet complete, have been rewarding and worthwhile.”
