With the unofficial end of summer near, our professors are recapping their summer.
In June, Dr. Brad McKinnon ventured on a two-week educational tour of northern France and London. The group of travelers visited historic and cultural sites including Mont-Saint-Michel Abbey, Omaha Beach, Normandy American Cemetery, Château de Chenonceau, Notre Dame Cathedral, the Louvre, the Eiffel Tower, the British Museum, the British Library, and Shakespeare’s Globe Theatre. They also had the opportunity to meet with a local congregation in the village of La Chapelle-au-Riboul, France.
Dr. McKinnon also conducted historical research in Austria, Germany, and Switzerland. He was nominated and approved to serve on the Board of Trustees for the Center for Swedenborgian Studies in Berkeley, California, which is part of the Graduate Theological Union.
It was a summer marked by teaching, scholarship, travel, and new opportunities, all contributing to Dr. McKinnon’s continued work as a professor and scholar here at HCU.
