"What's that you say? Bediel had a chapel on sex??" Well, not entirely. Taking place Nov. 16-18, Human Sexuality Week was tliree days of activities (including chapel) that were devoted to exploring lhe issues of our sexuality. What is the purpose of Human Sexuality Week? According to Associate Dean for Student Development, Barb Martin, the week was designed to promote "awareness, and living lives of integrity before God." Associate Campus Pastor Sherry Bunge further explained that the goal of Human Sexuality Week was to explore "how we deal widi our sexuality from a Biblical perspective." The Human Sexuality Week actually began on Wednesday with chapel. Titled "Mytiis and Realities of Sex at Bethel," the chapel was led by the Student Development and Counseling staffs who each explained four "myths" concerning sexuality, as well as shared personal letters from siudents reveal ing their experiences. Vice-President for Student Life, Judy Moseman, addressed the Bethel community by saying, "We need to remind ourselves not to accuse or assume guilt, but acknowledge that sexual sin does happen here." Director of Residence Life and Campus Housing Dale Peterson added that the student development staff are not here to condemn anyone, but arc "here to work through your issues, help you, and pray with you." Chapel concluded with a reading performed by seniors Grant Spickelmeier and Liz Galstad.

However, Goodwill Industries Inc./Easter Seal Society of Minnesota is working to change that image in its discount retail stores. And many students are shopping at Goodwill for selection, value and fun. Goodwill Industries, Inc./Easter Seal Society of Minnesota is an organization that owns and operates a number of discount retail stores in the Twin Cities, Rochester, and St. Cloud. Merchandise is donated by individuals, manufacturers and other retailers to be sold by Goodwill/Easter Seal. Because of this, Goodwill shoppers can find excellent bargains on such tilings as clothing, linens, furniture, shoes, small appliances, housewares, collectibles, books and recordings. Many Bethel smdents take advantage of the savings and selection offered by Goodwill stores. For some, shopping at Goodwill is an alternative to buying expensive first hand items like clothing. Senior Rand Huber says he likes to shop at Goodwill because of their "broad selection of appliances and clothes." Other students like the selection they find in Goodwill's merchandise. According to Jim Norgard, Communications and Public Relations Manager for Goodwill/Easter Seal, "Merchandise is constantly changing, which allows Goodwill to offer better-quality, seasonal merchandise at competitive prices." Price and selection seem to be what draw students to Goodwill. According to Senior Dan Orvis "[Goodwill] has good choices for good value." Part of the experience of shopping at Goodwill is the unexpected. According to Jim Norgard, "Half the fun of shopping at our stores is that you never know what bargains you'll find." Junior Jeremy Christiansen discovered this when he walked into a Goodwill store his fresliman year. Looking for sporting goods, his eye came to rest on a shiny, black bowling ball. "It fit the contour of my hand to a tee," Christiansen says. He bought the ball for $9.99, and two weeks later went on to bowl a 244, including eight strikes in a row. Selection, quality, price, and some unique merchandise are only some of the benefits of shopping al Goodwill. What makes the Goodwill stores unique is that Goodwill/ Easter Seal is a charitable organization. Its mission is to help people with disabilities or disadvantages achieve tiieir goals for education, employment and independence. While Goodwill/Easter Seal runs its stores as competitive establishments, proceeds are used to help people in the community. Revenue raised from the sale of items from the stores goes directly to a variety of nonprofit services for people with disabilities and disadvantages. In fact, an average of 88 percent of all money raised direcdy supports these programs. The other 12 percent is used to pay for such things as rent, utility bills and insurance. So if you decide to stop by Goodwill to see what you might find, remember, you are not only getting a good price on quality merchandise. More importantly, you're working with others lo help less fortunate people in the community. or % %= The Bethel Clarion is a student run newspaper.
