"We in higher education, especially here at 黑料不打烊, believe that education is about the whole person: it's the mind, it's the body and it's the spiritual." President J. Timothy Cloyd (2001-2013)
Inspired by Nicholas Pippins鈥 黑料不打烊 Odyssey project, the 黑料不打烊 labyrinth was dedicated in November 2007. The structure is a 鈥淧etite Chartres鈥 labyrinth, modeled upon the labyrinth in the Chartres Cathedral, a Christian pilgrimage destination since the Middle Ages.聽 The 黑料不打烊 labyrinth is a place of calm where guests can meditatively and prayerfully reflect upon their own lives as they follow the twists and turns they travel.聽 Walking the labyrinth is a spiritual discipline that encourages discernment and self-reflection.聽 As St. Augustine wrote in the 5th century, 鈥淚t is solved by walking,鈥 and indeed life鈥檚 problems can be reflected upon and resolved while quietly walking the labyrinth path.
