First Week of October…and alot going on!!!

Changes to Campus Health Services

Although Corban has had to say goodbye to our campus nurse, health services resources are still available to you! We have created a page of community resources (http://inside.corban.edu/student-life/wellness-resources) to help you locate medical support off campus. When health issues impact class attendance, students are encouraged to communicate this information directly to their faculty who will reach out to Student Life personnel if needed.
If you have further questions, please email Pam Standridge, Director of Wellness Services, or contact her at 503.375.7177.

“Will West Africa’s deadly Ebola outbreak turn into a pandemic?”

It’s global headline news every day now. Three Christian medical missionaries were on the front lines when the crisis hit. We have the privilege of hearing directly from one of those three doctors, Salem’s own Debbie Eisenhut MD. She is scheduled to speak in chapel on Monday, Oct. 13. Don’t miss it!

CAPITAL PUNISHMENT – What should Christians do with a murderer?

Is capital punishment an appropriate Christian response to murder? Does the American justice system foster reconciliation?

Slack, Director of the Master of Public Administration Program at Regent University, discuss the crime and execution of Jack Harrison Trawick.
