AUSTRALIAN STUDIES CENTRE {ASC) Australia is a post modern metropolis able to bridge philosophies, cultures and even continents - a place now known for its more contemporary styles of painting, literature, and other arts. ASC seeks to prepare students to live the Christian life in a world that is reli­ giously and culturally pluralistic, whether in Australia, North America, or other parts of the world. Students are encouraged to think through their role as kingdom builders in aWestern world that is increasingly secular both intellectually and culturally. They are further challenged to grapple with the meaning of being salt and light in the culture-shaping arena of professional performing artist. ASC is designed to integrate the firsthand observation and study of Australian culture, history. religion and politics. together with experi­ ential service learning and formal instruction in the arts. The program is comprised of one seminar course designed especially for ASC students, and three or four electives chosen from the list of courses at Wesley Institute for Ministry and the Arts in Sydney. ASC students will travel throughout Australia. visiting parks and population centers that influence the public discourse in the country. Students will have opportunities to discuss what it means to be a Ch ri stian artist and to better understand their own calling.
