Do justice. Love kindness. Walk humbly with God. For the Rev. Janet Cooper Nelson, the chaplain of Brown University who delivered a sermon May 22 at Elon University's Baccalaurate, graduates should follow those simple lessons as they embark on their life journeys.

Bestselling author and philosopher Thomas Moore urged the Elon community to educate for the soul in an April 23 lecture. Moore spoke at Elon at the invitation of Chaplain Richard McBride, who is retiring this spring after 25 years of service.

Thomas Moore, a bestselling author whose life work has been to help others develop and deepen their own spirituality, comes to Elon University on April 23 for a 7:30 p.m. lecture in Whitley Auditorium that explores how universities provide for the mind - but not as much for the soul - in the way they prepare students for life.

Elon Chaplain Richard McBride, who is retiring this spring after 25 years of service, was honored at a special Service of Celebration on April 19. At the service, President Leo M. Lambert conferred the title of Chaplain Emeritus on McBride, thanking him for his legacy of spiritual leadership.
