CHRISTIAN SCIENCE AND THE COLLEGE STUDENT

[Of Special Interest to Young People]

LORETTA GOLDEN

The Christian Scientist finds that the experience of attending college affords many opportunities to prove God's allness and to demonstrate man's endless capabilities as the child of the infinite, all-knowing Mind.

It is important that the student examine the motives predominant in his heart when he is preparing his college assignments. Too often the prevailing thought is one of false competition; each desires to be superior to the others. The Bible admonishes (Phil. 2:3), "Let nothing be done through strife or vain-glory." A dictionary defines "strife" as "contention for superiority; rivalry; competition," and "vain-glory" is defined as "vanity over one's accomplishments."
