Cultural Discerners

The Cultural Discerner (CD) program has been a part of the work of the Calvin College Student Activities Office since 1995, created because of a perceived need to demonstrate how Christians might take popular culture seriously in an academic setting. With anywhere from 10-22 sophomore students, the CD curriculum has focused on developing skills for cultural discernment in aspects of popular culture—music, film, television, advertising—with a view toward a skill set that could be applied to all parts of life.

 

Uncompressed

The Cultural Discerners also publish Uncompressed approximately twice a semseter.
