theTRUTH by dustyn tenhaaf C' 14) The 2011 Veritas Forum was entitled, "True Community, True Selves". It's mission was to entice questions of how to create true friendships in a world where technology and impersonal branding has become the norm. The first keynote address was by Dr. Mark Husbands of the Religion Department. He challenged students to ponder the responsibility to live well within history while living in a disenchanted world where walking away from faith is an option. "Dr. Husbands' address was the highlight for me. I felt challenged to live a more Christ-centered life. Wot to mention I'm a huge fan of Lord of the Rings and Gandalf," said Brent Smith ('13). In addition to the various speakers, nine Hope students presented papers divided into three sections ranging from strictly religion to how Pacebook impacts communities. On Saturday, January 15, 2011, Hope was given a special treat with a performance by husband and wife duo, Reverend Vito &? Momque Aiuto, more popularly known as "The Welcome Wagon." Their opening act was eight different groups of Hope College students in a format called "8 Minutes Max." The groups were given eight minute sets to interpret the theme in the form of song, dance or short film. The forum was wrapped on Sunday, January 16, 2011 with the Gathering and a sermon reflecting on the different aspects and views of the forum by Trygve Johnson, the Dean of Chapel. Academics
