#myCMUlife: Four things I wish I knew before starting my degree at CMU | Cloe Penner
Thursday, November 27, 2025 @ 4:02 PM
When applying to CMU, I didn't really have a firm idea of what I wanted to major in. I had interests, sure, and knew that any sort of science was going to be more than I could handle. Ancient history had always been something I enjoyed (being a Percy Jackson kid), and when browsing the registration guide, I saw a few classes that I wanted to know more about.

These lectures explore spirituality under the rubric of sacredness: what would it look like to notice more of the sacredness around us and respond appropriately to it? They try to shed a bit of light on this question by considering three broad forms of sacredness—transcendent value, transcendent beauty, and transcendent power—and suggesting that religion can play a crucial role in helping us hold these together. The first lecture makes a general case for this approach. The second and third lectures then give an example of what this looks like. In particular, they argue that Christianity's higher-order beliefs teach us to see all things in light of God and, just so, to see the sacredness in all things; they likewise argue that Christian virtue attunes us to this sacredness. Lectures two and three, accordingly, sketch an odd sort of systematic theology—spanning revelation and faith, creation and love, consummation and hope—that can serve as a guide to spirituality.

With only small groups of students in each community, sharing resources, like teachers who are each experts in their subjects, helps ensure a robust learning program.

CMU has unveiled a new visual identity that reflects its deep roots in the Anabaptist tradition while boldly articulating its vision for the future. The refreshed identity features a new logo, a renewed colour palette, and a modern design system that will be integrated across campus, digital platforms, and publications in the coming months.
The rebrand comes as CMU celebrates its 25th anniversary as a university. "This is more than a new logo," said Dr. Cheryl Pauls, CMU President. "It offers a visual expression of a university moving ahead with clarity and courage, remaining deeply grounded in the faith, learning, and pursuit of peace-justice that endures and continues to shape our story."
