        I believe this is the 7th or 8th iteration of this website. The main purpose has always been to share my art and later homilies, as well as learn more about website design and hosting and all that good stuff. <br>
        <br>
        And I've learned a lot over the years. Starting with Blogger back in the day, moving to Wordpress, then Wordpress hosted on a VPS, most recently Publii as a static site generator, and finally this, my attempt at a mostly html, with just a smattering of css, and hopefully no javascript website. <br>
        <br>
        This is to be a simple site, a la 1996ish. Not even an rss feed. I'm doing this, with the goal to try self hosting at some point, and also keep it simple enough that it'll be easy to bring over to p2p protocols to test them out. <br>

<summary id="photography">Photography Class</summary>
<p>Link this class: https://davidbaunach.com/#photography</p>
<h4>Photography 101</h4>
<h5>Class 0</h5>
<h5>>Genesis</h5>
<p>How to become a photographer: start taking pictures.</p>
<p>Use whatever you have, an old smartphone, an ancient digital camera you found at a thrift shop. Doesn't matter, to get better, take a bunch of pictures, then take some more.</p>
<p>Whatever camera gear you use is going to have limitations, but those limitations will be your greatest ally once you learn the ins and outs of the camera.</p>
<p>Creativity and vision are what produce beautiful photos.</p>
<p>It is the struggle of the photographer trying to express that creativity and vision that sets apart a beginner from a pro.</p>
<p>Every pro started out as a beginner, but never gave up.</p>
<p>The 1000's of hours of pain and frustration of figuring out how to use the camera to express what they were aiming for, forged a photographer.</p>
<p>So just start. And struggle. Take garbage photo after garbage photo.</p>
<p>Celebrate the successes, which will be so few at first, and more often mistakes than truly intended.</p>
<p>But eventually, the successes will begin to outweigh the garbage.</p>
<p>The junk becomes the exception, triumph becomes the rule.</p>
<p>But only if you begin.</p>
<p>So get that camera, go on the hunt for beauty, indoors on a rainy day, outdoors when the sun is out.</p>
<p>The neverending quest for beauty is our birthright. Claim it, and never give up.</p>
<p>---------</p>
<p>Possible Actions:</p>
<ul>
<li>Start taking pictures every single day. Can even start a "Photo of the Day" thing on your social media of choice. It will be good to be able to look back and see your progress.</li>
<li>Set a goal for how many pictures you want to take each day.</li>
</ul>
<br/>
<h5>Class 1</h5>
<h5>>Boredom</h5>
<p>Boredom is necessary for creativity.</p>
<p>In order to develop an artistic vision, you will need to reach some level of comfort with being bored.</p>
<p>Sitting in a field and listening to bird songs. Watching the clouds above slowly meander across the sky. Feeling the grass bent and broken beneath your feet.</p>
<p>Boredom is typically experienced when we are pulled into the present moment, when the things that we usually distract ourselves with fall silent.</p>
<p>To become an artist, we leave aside these distractions often. We dedicate large parts of our day to silent watching and listening.</p>
<p>Only then, will we see the thing that should be preserved in a photograph.</p>
<p>The first class, was to take a lot of pictures, so as to learn your camera, it's intricacies and foibles, and begin to understand the areas you need to work on.</p>
<p>This class is about how to start seeing what is worthy of being pictured.</p>
<p>Keep taking lots of pictures, but also work some silence and stillness into your days.</p>
<p>Being an artist is a spiritual craft, we are engaging in the work of glorifying God, and God should have some input into this work.</p>
<p>So practically, you can fulfill these two things at once: spend time in silent prayer.</p>
<p>Empty your mind, and pay attention to God's creation all around you.</p>
<p>You will see what is important.</p>
<p>And you may even hear, the voice of God.</p>
<p>---------</p>
<p>Possible Actions:</p>
<ul>
<li>Set aside 10-20 minutes each day to pray silently. Ideally out in nature, but that's not necessary.</li>
</ul>

            <h4>Using Git to distribute digital media.</h4>
            <p>Right off the bat I want to set expectations: I know almost nothing about programming or dev work, all I can really do is html, and if I want to make myself hate the world, I can do some css. So essentially I format documents. That said, I love offline-first, p2p, smallnet, and all that good stuff.</p>
						<p>So when I saw Solderpunk's article on using Git for p2p distribution (https://portal.mozz.us/gemini/zaibatsu.circumlunar.space/~solderpunk/gemlog/low-budget-p2p-content-distribution-with-git.gmi) and then saw Degauss's project gwit (https://sr.ht/~ivilata/gwit/) that was inspired by it, I wanted to help. But I quickly realized there wasn't much I could do to help build out gwit, quick look at what Degauss was doing, and realized it was above my head.</p>
						<p>Decided to go in a different direction, lean on my strengths as an artist, and just give the idea (of using Git to publish stuff) a name and an image.</p>
						<p>Started with the name, after a few different iterations, settled on LogGit. Wanted the name to express the intention of using 'Git' as a 'log' to track changes to files over time, thus allowing for changeable content.</p>
						<p>Then the image, drew inspiration from the Git logo, but kept it simple and small (32x32 pixels):</p>
						<img src="https://davidbaunach.com/images/LogGit logo.jpeg">
						<p>And then the idea: use Git to distribute stuff.</p>
						<p>For anyone who is comfortable with computers and has some basic understanding of Git, we can start doing this now.</p>
						<p>I'm testing out the idea in my free time, using a Git gui on my computer, and cloning static sites whose author's have made their Git repo public (many thanks to 100r.com and j3s.sh to making their repos easy to find). I also added the LogGit image and the link to clone from the public repo for my personal site and a few other projects I work on.</p>
						<p>Cool thing I've found already, is that rss is no longer needed, whenever a change gets made to a site, I can pull the changes, look in the Git history, and see what was added or deleted.</p>
						<p>What I like about this, is that nothing needs to be built, nothing major needs to change, just need to publish a link to clone the repo.</p>
						<p>I also like that you can use the infrastructure of the enemy to publish.</p>
						<p>Go ahead and host the repo on Github or any other major git forge, can typically do it for free, but the original always remains on your device, and you can move it elsewhere whenever you want, and leave your new location as your last commit. Next level would be to self-host it on a Forgejo/Gitea/whatever instance, or what I haven't tried out yet (but plan to soon) is host it yourself on Tor and keep things really sneaky.</p>
						<p>I threw together a basic site with the info here: https://davidbaunach.github.io/LogGit/ but you can also LogGit here: https://techpriesthub.xyz/forgejo/terrantechpriest/LogGit.git to get the most up-to-date version (I won't be adding updates to the Gihub version unless they become necessary).</p>
						<p>Lastly, here's the repo where I'm trying stuff out, so far, have just been messing around with the idea of blogging, seeing how easy it would be for people to comment on posts via pull request: https://techpriesthub.xyz/forgejo/terrantechpriest/LogGit_stuff.git Probably will test stuff out there, and if it seems promising, move it over to Github so it will be easier for others to interact.</p>

			<summary id="the_phone_problem">The Phone Problem</summary>
                <p>Link this post: https://davidbaunach.com/#the_phone_problem</p>
                <h5 >Tldr: simple redundancy is best.</h5>
				<h4>Context</h4>
				<p>Been running a long term experiment about finding a healthy balance in making myself available to others, and guarding time for personal needs and development. Previous successes have included: the backpack experiment, moving to a two phone setup, and quite a few other tiny changes in my life as a priest that would be a little boring to list out.
				<br>
				What has been occupying my mind in the last few months, especially with the realization (prompted by making the Steam Deck my laptop replacement) that portable computers are finally here and they work amazingly well, is that having a phone number, seems stupid.
				<br>
				It's archaic tech in the worst way, there are better options for voice/video calling and for messaging, and it's highly centralized and completely falls apart in a disaster.
				<br>
				It's also used for all sorts of tracking and identity verification, with very few methods of blocking those tracking attempts being feasible.
				<br>
				With the Steam Deck, or any other portable pc, all necessary means of comunication can be maintained, a phone number is now an unecessarily complicated, and potentially harmful, redundancy.
				</p>
				<h4>Replacement</h4>
				<p>As I've pondered the ways to journey towards a phone number-less life, it's obvious the actual shift is going to be messy.
				<br>
				There are tons of options out there to replace telephone communication, all across the spectrum of corporate to more open: WhatsApp, Viber, Facebook Messanger, Discord, Telegram, Signal, Wire, Session, Keet, and probably some others I can't recall.
				<br>
				The first problem is do I just stick with one and start handing that out as my new "phone number." Or do I start a few, and give people some options in case they are already familiar with one of them.
				<br>
				And then while I don't have many, I do have some elderly people in my life and work as a priest who are not going to be able to make the jump to any of these options. I'm thinking the age cut off is about mid 80's, I know people in their late 70's and early 80's who use Facetime and Facebook Messanger to communicate with their children and grandchildren, so I think for the most part they'd be fine. But those in their late 80's and on up, I think they're not going to be able to make any sort of shift.
				<br>
				The final big problem to consider (there's lots of little problems, not going into those), is the jerk factor.
				<br>
				Everyone within my socio-economic and geographical region has a phone number. Trying to move away from that is going to threaten the status quo and make me stick out like a sore thumb. I'm going to be making everyone else's life difficult through this decision.
				<br>
				I think I'll ultimately be okay with that, but it does give me a reason to move slowely.</p>
				<h4>Process</h4>
				<p>My first intended step is to setup a bunch of those different messenger platforms. I'm guessing that having 4-6 will increase the likelihood that someone will already have an account on that platform.
                <br>
                Next step is only offering those as options to contact me. Just never give my phone number as an option, unless it becomes absolutely necessary.
                <br>
                Final step will be well down the road (I assume): finally getting rid of my phone number! I'm guessing this will take years to get all my present communication over sms transferred over to other platforms. But the day will happen eventually! Maybe...</p>
                <h4>Caveats</h4>
				<p>I understand a few roadbumps to my overarching plan: government stuff requires a phone number, the bank requires a phone number, doctors require a phone number.
				<br>
				On the one hand, I'd love to fully go off grid and not need to worry about any of those things, but that's not an option.
				<br>
				These are the reasons I think it will be years to fully get rid of my phone number, and I kinda think I might never be able to get rid of it.
				<br>
				Might just need to keep a dumb phone/local phone with a number I only use for government-banks-doctors for the forseable future.</p>

            <summary>Various Things</summary>
            <h4>Kagi</h4>
            <p>I've often dropped the phrase "if you're not paying for it with money, then your data is the payment" in my feeble attempts to convince family and friends to drop Facebook, Instagram, Tik Tok, etc... And I say feeble, because it never really seems to work. I need some new strategies.</p>
            <p>About a month ago, decided to follow my own advice, and started using, and paying for, Kagi. Google and Bing, as well as the various other ways of getting their search results, have been kicked to the curb!</p>
            <p>My one month review begins with the fact that I search quite a bit. Blew through the 300 searches plan in two weeks, so I'm on the next tier now.</p>
            <p>Search results have been great, a very few times I've had to venture to the second page of results.</p>
            <p>I'm not a fan of them trying to add a bunch of ai features, but I understand that it's in vogue at the moment, and they all seem to be opt in, so I'm just ignoring them.</p>
            <p>I'll give it a 9/10 (gotta cut one point for the ai garbage), highly recommended as a search engine, and giving Google the boot is a wonderful bonus.</p>
            <h4>Gris</h4>
            <p>Picked up Gris on the Summer Steam Sale, and just finished it yesterday.</p>
            <p>Absolutely beautiful art style, gameplay (love that you get to bring things back to life by singing!), and storyline. I almost cried at then end.</p>
            <p>Also, seems like it was made for the Steam Deck.</p>
            <p>It's getting a 10/10, will definitely be replaying in the near future.</p>
            <h4>Archiving</h4>
            <p>I've started to take offline archiving seriously over the past month. A combination of Tumblr and Twitter going full silo, as well as Youtube vids dissapearing from my playlists, and then just the general ephemeral nature of the Internet.</p>
            <p>First step was adding more storage to my two main backup devices. I already had Resilio/Syncthing setup to keep things synced across those two devices, so once the new storage capacity was in place, just needed to add a few folders and away we go!</p>
            <p>Backing up vids has so many options, I'm not going to go into what I use, it's changed just in the past month, and will probably change again.</p>
            <p>But for websites and blogs, I played around with two tools: first I tried out NB and then Offpunk.</p>
            <p>Offpunk is the winner for my needs, but NB is a very interesting option.</p>
            <p>NB was easier to figure out for someone not terribly familiar with the terminal, so it was a good a starting place. And it does store snapshots of webpages, and allow you to browse stored sites, as well as having a whole bunch of note taking functionalities. However, the way it processed webpages for storage wasn't the best, certain parts would get cut off, and it doesn't even try to get images, which aren't necessary, but are sometimes useful to have.</p>
            <p>Offpunk is only about storing websites for offline view, and also adds a syncing feature, which seems like it will be useful for blogs that get updated every once in a while. It also stores images, highly pixelated, but it's enough to give an idea of what the image is about. The way it browses through the synced sites is definitely smoother than NB as well. 10/10 for my purposes.</p>
            <p>It also works with Gemini protocol, which is something I want to write more about, but I'll save that for the future.</p>

        <details>
            <summary id="lots_of_things">Steam Deck Success</summary>
            <p>The final step is complete: I've got my Steam Deck setup as a full replacement for my phone. The last puzzle piece was getting an Android emulator working for those few apps I still need. After some research, seemed like just using the built in emulator from Android Studio was the best bet, and it works like a charm! I'm running MySudo for phone and texting on the emulator, and there's a few other apps I'll probably add eventually. Everything else I need either runs on SteamOS, or in a virtual box.</p>
            <p>Only major problem I wasn't able to solve was gps navigation. My plan for that is just to turn my old phone into a dedicated gps device that'll live in my car. Won't be needing it for anything else anyway.</p>
            <p>The reason for wanting to fully replace my phone, is functionality. The Steam Deck is a portable pc. I was already using it to replace my work laptop, it's a smaller device to transport between offices, and with a full dock+keyboard+mouse+monitor setup at each office, it's more enjoyable to use than a cramped laptop.</p>
            <p>It's also an entertainment center, with most of my Steam library being playable, as well as my collection of media available over Jellyfin. I just keep a usb c to html cable in the bag, and it's ready to connect to any available screen.</p>
            <p>But I will close with my final pain point, because it's not all skittles and beer. A physical keyboard and mouse for when I'm not docked. I haven't found a Bluetooth set that's easy enough to carry around in my bag, at least not yet. I'm sure I'll find one eventually, but the set I already had, and the one I recently purchased, are both too large. So that will be the next part of the quest, ever onward and up!</p>

            <summary id="lots_of_things">Lots of Things</summary>
            <p>I've been a bit of a lurker for the past few months. Things are always a bit insane during Lent for priests, and this year was no different.</p>
            <p>Got a bunch of things to share, and figure I'll work backwords.</p>
            <h4>Easter</h4>
            <p>After all four of my Easter masses where finished, celebrated with a cigar and some scotch, then a nice steak dinner. Even shared a little of the steak with the cat (not pictured, the moment was too fleeting).</p>
            <p style="text-align: left;"><img src="https://davidbaunach.com/images/update/scotchandcigar.jpeg" alt="scotch and cigar" style="width:270px;height:360px;"></p>
            <p style="text-align: left;"><img src="https://davidbaunach.com/images/update/steakdinner.jpeg" alt="steak dinner" style="width:360px;height:270px;"></p>
            <h4>Tumblr</h4>
            <p>Found out that Tumblr is moving in the walled garden direction. Not sure when it started, but this popped up when I shared a post with a friend not on Tumblr. Not sure what I'm going to do about this, I really don't like it, initial thought is finding another place to publish stuff I find on Tumblr. I don't want to do that here, but I also hate the idea of starting up another social media thing somewhere.</p>
            <p style="text-align: left;"><img src="https://davidbaunach.com/images/update/tumblrbs.png" alt="tumblr is becoming a true hellsite" style="width:433px;height:432px;"></p>
            <h4>Music</h4>
            <p>Over a year ago I got rid of my subscription to Spotify, and started rebuilding my MP3 collection. Been using Bandcamp or ripping cds I can buy directly from the mucisian if possible, though I've had to get used cds or go through Amazon for a few things I couldn't find elsewhere.</p>
            <p>Because of this I've switched to listen to music as an album, and that's been a paradigm shift. I used to build playlists around what I wanted to hear, now I'm directed by the artist to hear what they want to express.</p>
            <p>My latest album purchase was <a href="https://youtu.be/H_GWuUeM9dY" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Parts 1 by Xsodect</a>, and I highly recommend checking it out. Chill yet exhilerating electronic music. Which I heard about in...</p>
            <h4>100R</h4>
            <p>...the March newsletter from Hundred Rabbits, an artist collective of two that sails around the Pacific ocean on a sailboat, making art, coding video games, and doing a bunch of other cool stuff. Someone on SSB mentioned them, and I fell down the rabbit hole (pun very much intended) of exploring all their stuff. <a href="https://100r.co/site/about_us.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Check out their website here</a>, they're making some really cool things!</p>
            <h4>Future</h4>
            <p>I've got a bunch of half-written blog posts and projects and experiments that I want to get around to finishing soon. Looks like there will be a little free time to dedicate to fun stuff in the near future, but we'll see if that holds true!</p>
            <p>Peace and Joy!</p>

            roots and development of the university system within the context of Catholic Europe. The second
            was to explore the objective of a Catholic University according to popes and other significant figures
            in the recent tradition. The overarching end of this project was that I would be able to answer the
            question of what a good Catholic University is, and be able to help someone pick out a university for
            their children to attend.</p>
        <p>The plan of attack was straightforward: historical overviews and primary sources painted the
            picture of the medieval university up until the Enlightenment era, and works of St. John Paul II and
            Pope Benedict XVI gave us the main activities and aims we should hope to find in a Catholic
            University. The bibliography below gives the works read and referenced.</p>
        <h4>Historical Development: Medieval Roots to the Enlightenment</h4>
        <p>To find the roots of the university, we start with a value: the value of learning. When we go back
            to the beginnings we find that the seed of the university was a desire to learn things, and things that
            were not immediately practical (theology and philosophy spring to mind as wonderful examples).
            Students gathered around a master to learn. These early schools became increasingly popular in the
            Carolingian period, and started to be incorporated into monasteries. However, in the tenth and
            eleventh centuries the importance of these monastic schools began to wane as schools centered
            around cathedrals began to wax.</p>
        <p>An important factor surrounding the rise of the cathedral schools, which would eventually
            become the university, was the desire for better educated clergy. This situation facilitated the rise in
            prominence of cathedral schools, and as the twelfth century came to a close, the size and capabilities
            of some of these schools had improved so much that they began to be recognizable as universities.</p>
        <p>Through various power struggles between the masters and students and authorities (both
            secular and sacred), the structures we are familiar with were forged by the end of the thirteenth
            century. Guilds or departments for different fields of learning, a rector at the head of the university,
            and rights and rules of conduct for students and masters were all established. Thus as this early
            period drew to a close, and from the seventh century to the thirteenth we can see the conception,
            development, and birth of the university within the Western Catholic context.</p>
        <p>Continuing on, we pick up the development again during the Renaissance. As we proceed, a
            new value enters the scene. That value of learning without immediate pragmatic benefit was still in
            play, but in this period we see the addition of the value of revolt and rebellion. This valuation is
            seeking things that are new and different: new methods, new ways of thinking, new things to think
            about. An offspring of this value was a revival of a classical value for learning: moral development.
            Education was to instill in the learner an upstanding moral character. This motivation continues
            through the Enlightenment. The value of revolt continues also as we move out of the Renaissance
            and into the period of the Reformation and Counter-Reformation.</p>
        <p>This period wasn't really marked by any major developments, just an increasing level
            systematization. This is attributed to the Jesuits, who organized curriculums and implemented
            testing and examinations to promote competition in learning. And this brings us to the Enlightenment, where the value of revolt rapidly accelerates. Emphasis on the individual, the value
            of reason, and desire for scientific progress marked the educational motivations of this age.</p>
        <p>We see these motivations up to today; and while it seems the moral motivation has dropped out
            of sight on the wider scale, we will see in the next section that this goal is forefront in the Catholic
            understanding of what the university should seek to provide.</p>
        <h4>The Catholic University: Popes and Thinkers on What a Catholic University Should Be</h4>
        <p>My method of study was to begin and end with papal teaching and thought on the university,
            and in between to look at the thought of some prominent Catholic thinkers on the subject.
            However, for our purposes we will begin with what I learned from those thinkers first, and then
            conclude with the two popes.</p>
        <p>The first was John Henry Newman. I read a selection of his essays that touched on the
            university and its aims. His main thought came down to this: there is a universal desire among
            human beings to learn, and the university is the place to satisfy this desire. It is to be a place that has
            the fevered excitement of the exchange of ideas, but also a place of discipline and sober study. And
            he points to its very title as indicative of what should be studied there: everything! The university is
            to be a universal place.</p>
        <p>The next Catholic thinker is Glenn Olsen, and I studied an essay of his that critiqued the state
            of Catholic university education in the United States. His main theme continues from Newman, he
            wants universality in university education. His critique centers around how this is not what happens
            at Catholic universities in the United States: their curriculums are narrow and stifled. Yet Olsen ends
            by pondering if perhaps we will continually be unable to reach the ideal.</p>
        <p>St. John Paul II does not think this is the case. The work I studied was Ex Corde Ecclesiae, and
            not only does he present the ideal, but also institutes canons to guide universities in pursuing it. This
            ideal begins with the Gospel: a university is to find its identity in its Catholicity. A natural product of
            this identity will be an evangelizing aspect. The university, as a place of dialogue between the Church
            and the culture, is in a prime location to engage in the work of evangelization.</p>
        <p>Catholicity and evangelization are vital, but St. John Paul II also lays out the primary mission of
            the university, which is threefold. It consists of the search for truth through research, the
            preservation of knowledge, and the communication of knowledge. In doing this, the university will
            exist for the good of society.</p>
        <p>The search for truth ends up being his central focus. St. John Paul II argues that it is in the
            search for truth that the Catholic university will shine. The reason is that it knows the source of
            truth, while seeking for the truth. In searching they follow the way marked out for them by one they
            know.</p>
        <p>Pope Benedict XVI, in his Regensburg address, is also focused on the search for truth, but
            looks particularly at how this search is approached. For Benedict, the approach has to be one that
            takes into account faith and reason. His argument is that for reason to be fully accessed, faith is
            required, and for faith to be fully lived, reason is necessary. They are both needed, if only one or the
            other is used, any learning will turn in on itself and be self-destructive. Benedict then shows how
            both faith and reason are fully activated within the Christian worldview, and thus within a Catholic
            university, the integration of faith and reason is both possible and worthy of pursuit.</p>
        <p>And now, we put it all together and get…</p>

        <h3 id="where-should-jonny-jill-go-to-college">Where should Jonny/Jill go to college?</h3>
        <p>So you're sending your kid to college, what to do? Assuming you want to give your child the
            best start in this crazy world that you can give them, there is one question to consider: do you want
            to help them be a saint? If the answer is no, encourage them to pick a lucrative career path, get them
            into a school that will help them land the job, and your work is done. Hopefully they'll be grateful
            enough to care for you in your old age.</p>
        <p>If you answered yes, then the journey will be long and arduous, but worthwhile. You obviously
            cannot force your child into sanctity, but like a good gardener you can tend the bed of their soul,
            encourage good growth, and cull the bad. Growth in sanctity is like the flowering of a rose, for
            though it grows from a thorny stem, its petals unfurl into a delicate blossom. Just so, though one's
            life is full of temptations and pain, the glory of God is made manifest amidst it all. This glory is
            accomplished by striving after perfection, by seeking to be perfect as our heavenly Father is perfect.
            For the human person this happens by seeking perfection in every aspect of their life. All virtues are
            important, and among these lie the intellectual virtues and all connected with them. Discipline and
            wisdom, knowledge and persistence, among many others are as important as willing the good and
            avoiding the evil.</p>
        <p>From this perspective, your child's education is not about getting them ready for a job, it's about
            aiding them in growth as a human being, which in turn aids their growth as a saint. God gave us
            intellectual capability so that we may glorify him by using and perfecting it, education is thus an act
            of worship and praise.</p>
        <p>This education takes a certain form. As Catholics, we are privileged to be in a close relationship
            with the creator. We know the source of all truth, we have the perfect study partner in our
            educational endeavors. All avenues of knowledge are open to us: mathematics and psychology lead
            us to (and come from) God just as much as theology and philosophy. Everything is important,
            nothing is trivial.</p>
        <p>And if your child engages in this great undertaking of perfecting the intellect, they can become
            saints who beget other saints. They may not be the next Aquinas or Edith Stein, but no intellectual
            endeavor is wasted. Even if they be just a Thérèse or Solanus Casey, everything they went through
            will have helped make them who they are.</p>
        <h4>Where to Send Them?</h4>
        <p>I hope to have convinced you that what your child learns in higher education is not the
            concern. What's more important is where and how. The place must not be one that falls into the trap
            of thinking that one field of knowledge is more important than the rest. This will happen to a
            certain extent at all schools, but if it is a matter of pride for that school to be narrow, it's best
            avoided.</p>
        <p>The place must also clearly have the goal of helping its students to become good human beings.
            What I mean is that their goal must be learning and development in the student, seeking academic
            and intellectual perfection. Our ultimate goal for your child is sainthood, and while it would be ideal
            if the school shared this goal, at the very least they should be aiming for perfection in the intellectual
            sphere.</p>
        <p>And that's really it. There's lots of other things you could look for, but if you find a place that
            revels in the universality of knowledge, and that strives for human excellence, then at least their heart
            is set on the right goal. Look for these things, grill any faculty you can to see if they are truly
            overarching goals of the institution, and above all pray during the whole process. Ask God to show
            you the way and he will. Ultimately, even if you do everything right, it's all up to God anyway, and
            when you drop your kid off at their new dorm it will be a leap of faith.</p>

        <h3 id="st-john-paul-ii-on-the-catholic-university">St. John Paul II on the Catholic University</h3>
        <p>This paper is a straightforward look at St. John Paul II's understanding and vision for the
            Catholic University. For a source, we look to his apostolic exhortation <i>Ex Corde Ecclesiae</i>, in which
            the saint laid out the objectives of Catholic Universities.</p>
        <p>Before I read the exhortation, including the descriptive article “Catholic” before university
            seemed unnecessary. However, after reading <i>Ex Corde</i> I see it as neigh impossible to leave off. It is
            not enough to simply study about the university. Following the saint it seems best to explore the full
            thing, the institution in the noblest form, having the purpose of finding the whole truth. To study
            the university without the faith would be to study a small piece.</p>
        <p>St. John Paul makes a big deal about Catholicity in this exhortation, no doubt as a clarion call to
            the institutions of his day to live up to their calling. I initially approached this exhortation looking for
            his understanding of universities as a whole, so for the most part I did not find any specifics worthy of record. As a whole St. John Paul was saying that the whole activity of a Catholic University is to
            be imbued with the spirit of the Gospel. The university is to express this within the community, in
            an internal way, as well as in an external way. It is to follow the Gospel in how it runs itself and in
            how it interacts with the world.</p>
        <p>That's the gist of it, and at least a good third of the document is concerned with the thoroughly
            “Catholic” aspect of the Catholic University. That being said, there was one part of it that I found
            interesting and worthy of note. Towards the end of Part I, St. John Paul speak about the
            Evangelizing aspect of the Catholic University. As a “living institutional witness,” the university plays
            a powerful role in the evangelizing efforts of the Church as a whole. Because of its formative
            education of students, and its ability to dialogue with culture, the Catholic University can and should
            be a powerful evangelizing agent.</p>
        <p>Besides the explicit Catholicity of the Catholic University, the rest of the document lays out what
            the university should look like as a whole. St. John Paul states that the fundamental mission of a
            university is threefold: the search for truth through research, the preservation of knowledge, and the
            communication of knowledge. The ultimate reason for this mission being the good of society. He
            ends up saying quite a bit about the search for truth in the rest of the letter, and a little bit about
            communication of knowledge, but doesn't say nearly anything about the preservation of knowledge.
            (I guess he thinks libraries are doing a great job and don't need any help)</p>
        <p>In regards to the search for truth, St. John Paul makes clear in the introductory paragraph that
            the Catholic University's privilege and goal is the certainty of knowing the font of truth, and at the
            same time seeking the truth. This puts the unattainable position of the Catholic University into
            sharp relief against that of any other university or college. The Catholic University knows and is in relationship with the source of all truth. Thus, in it’s search for truth, it is not limited, it's looking for
            everything:</p>
        <blockquote >It does this without fear but rather with enthusiasm, dedicating itself to every path of
            knowledge, aware of being preceded by him who is "the Way, the Truth, and the
            Life"(8), the <i>Logos</i>, whose Spirit of intelligence and love enables the human person
            with his or her own intelligence to find the ultimate reality of which he is the source
            and end and who alone is capable of giving fully that Wisdom without which the
            future of the world would be in danger. (Paragraph 4)</blockquote>
        <p>In exaltation of the Catholic University, I think St. John Paul is saying that not only is the Catholic
            University in an unparalleled position to find the truth, but additionally it also has the burden of
            making use of this privileged position!</p>
        <p>For if the Catholic University is to be fruitful, it is to search and communicate. Much has been
            given to this institution, and much is expected. Seeking the whole of truth allows the Catholic
            University to aid the Church in dialoguing with every culture. Seeking the whole of truth allows the
            Catholic University to guide and initiate new technological and scientific developments. Seeking the
            whole of truth allows the Catholic University to integrate all knowledge.</p>
        <p>The exhortation ends with a list of general norms to be added to the Code of Canon Law. St.
            John Paul II laid out a vision, and put it into effect. He has called the Catholic University to a high
            standard, and in the final conclusion, he prays that they will live up to it through God's help.</p>
        <p>Finishing the exhortation, it is clear that in scope it is abstract. It gives goals to achieve, vices to
            avoid, and general paths to follow. Specifics remain to be put into place. The adventure of reaching
            these goals in differing cultural and political climates is left to administrators, teachers, and students.
            The community of the university will have an exciting and harrowing time configuring their identity
            within these norms and goals. But as with all things in the Christian life, that is as it should be [-:</p>

        <h3 id="benedict-xvi-lecture-at-regensburg">Benedict XVI's Lecture at Regensberg on Faith, Reason and the University</h3>
        <p>Like a planet locked in orbit around the sun, Benedict's thinking in this lecture is locked in orbit
            around one theme: the interplay of faith and reason. From the beginning he hints at it, by the middle
            he is showing its importance, and at the end he argues why it must happen. Faith and reason is the
            sun.</p>
        <p>Benedict's argument stemming from this theme is that for reason to be fully accessed, faith is
            required, and for faith to be fully lived, reason is necessary. Reason on its own is the impulse to give
            credence only to science, which of course leaves out the majority of human questions and
            understanding. By faith on its own he means a kind of fundamentalism that draws from a source
            without questioning or seeking to go beyond an initial understanding of the source.</p>
        <p>The addition of faith to reason allows room for reason to breath. Questions become accessible,
            even if they are not ultimately answerable. The same thing happens with the introduction of reason
            into faith: it is able to look at itself, analyze its source and understand its intricacies. He sets this out
            as the ideal, and shows how it can be found within the Christian tradition.</p>
        <p>Starting with St. Paul's turning away from Asia and towards Macedonia in his evangelical journey,
            Benedict argues that the integration of the biblical faith with Hellenistic reasoning entered into the
            Christian tradition. For example the very term and understanding of <i>logos</i> has had a huge impact on
            Christianity.</p>
        <p>To sum up thus far: Benedict has a theme, faith and reason; he has an argument, that both are
            needed for the full development of either; and finally he shows how both are present within
            Christianity. He has a reason for laying all of this out. The splintering of faith and reason that has
            happened, especially in more recent times, has led to an inability of cultures and religions to dialogue
            with each other.</p>
        <p>Benedict states, really without need of argument, that the situation of miscommunication
            between cultures and religions is dire. He closes with a sense of urgency: faith and reason are needed
            to salve the situation. And this is exactly what the university is set up for.</p>
        <p>This is the part that really affects this project. He's saying the same thing as St. John Paul, but he
            has added a sense of urgency. And though he does not say this reintegration of faith and reason can
            only happen at a university, he does seem to say that it is the appropriate place.</p>

        <h3 id="john-henry-cardinal-newman-on-the-university">John Henry Cardinal Newman on The University</h3>
        <h4>[Newman: <i>What is a University?</i></h4>
        <p>In this essay, Newman comes to the conclusion that the University is the place where everything
            happens! All the schools, all the areas of inquiry, all the arts, all the sciences: in a word, everything. At the risk of being sacrilegious, Newman seems to be saying the University is to be the source and
            summit of humanity. Where everything comes from, and where it all returns to.</p>
        <p>He briefly distinguishes what the atmosphere of the University should be like. He paints the
            picture of a symposium or colloquium, excitement and ideas bubbling and boiling. But that's not all.
            That excitement and feverish activity is a part, but not the whole. There is also serious and sober
            study, disciplined and sustained.</p>
        <p>Part of this essay attempts to indicate the necessity of the University as a place where
            student-teacher interaction can take place. To back this up, Newman argues that for someone to
            seriously advance in a subject they will seek out, and indeed need, interaction with a master. And
            while I couldn't agree more for practical and concrete subjects, I wonder if the advances of our age
            has made this obsolete for certain pursuits.</p>
        <p>For example, I wanted to learn how to paint way back when. I didn't have access to classes or
            anything like that. I read books, articles, watched videos online, and I slowly learned. I am not at
            complete mastery, but I could be if I continued my study. Now in this case it seems that an
            instructor would have certainly sped up the process. But I think all that would be saved is time, the
            goal could be reached by either road.</p>
        <p>The above was not a major point, but the Internet and readily available tutorials and other
            resources has made his point a little more convoluted and clouded. That being said, on the whole
            this essay serves to impart an ideal, and that ideal is the University as everything. It is to be “The
            School of Universal Learning.” Learners and teachers from every pursuit.</p>
        <h4>[Newman: <i>Free Trade in Knowledge: The Sophists</i></h4>
        <p>This chapter/essay was not what I expected. It was basically a long defense against the naysayers
            of founding the University in Ireland. His defense is simple: build it and they will come. Knowledge
            and wisdom are things that everyone wants. He brings up examples of ancient schools in Athens and
            Rome, how people would come just to learn, not for money or power or wealth, just to learn from a
            master.</p>
        <p>Newman brings up something I forgot to mention in the first section: that the university is like a
            metropolis: it is a place people go to for the sake of itself. They go to become better. I think the
            point he is trying to make is that no matter what they do it will be enough, for people will come to
            learn, and they can grow over time. A final point that was little more than an aside: Newman argues
            that this was a good time to start a university. He looked at the universities founded in the middle
            ages and pointed out how they needed protectors at times, royalty that provided security in the face
            of adversity. Newman points out that the place of the university is so much better understood and
            respected that this isn't the case anymore. There has never been a better time to erect a university.</p>
        <h4>[Newman: <i>The Strength and Weakness of Universities: Abelard</i></h4>
        <p>I read this chapter/essay for obvious reasons [-:</p>
        <p>This essay contains a simple argument: the very strength of a university, which Newman already
            outlined (that it is the universal desire of humanity to grow in knowledge and wisdom) can also be
            its downfall. While he doesn't state so explicitly, I believe the downfall of Abelard that Newman is
            highlighting stems from a lack of community. Abelard saw himself in an unattainable position, and
            nobody ever succeeded in breaking him out of it. He had many faults, but because of people desiring knowledge, he always had a flock of students. Basically, the University will be a place where this type
            of sin can easily spread, and so it must be watched for and fought.</p>

        <h3 id="christopher-dawson-and-the-renewal-of-catholic-education">On the Article: Christopher Dawson and the Renewal of Catholic Education</h3>
        <p>This article by Glenn Olsen looks at Christopher Dawson and his thoughts on Catholic
            education as a means to reach a conclusion on the question of choosing a curriculum for Catholic
            institutions. Dawson held the Chair of Roman Catholic Studies at Harvard, and apparently
            commented much on the state of Catholic education, and what it could become.</p>
        <p>He was a critic of many trends, particularly single-mindedness, especially in regards to: focusing
            on certain classics to the exclusion of other classics, thinking older is better, and focusing on
            Thomism to the exclusion of most everything else in philosophy. But he also had a goal: “...the
            central insight of all Dawson's work was that religion is at the heart of culture—that culture is
            embodied religion—and that the most obvious subject for historical study is the origin, growth,
            maturity, and perhaps death of cultures.”</p>
        <p>His criticism can be seen as a critique of narrowness, his goal as being one of breadth and depth.
            Instead of looking at threads of the tapestry, he wanted to take in the whole of the tapestry, and the
            weavers that put it together. He wanted education to include the whole picture.</p>
        <p>Historical context was a big part of this. The importance of history being that it gives necessary
            context to everything else. Without it education is self-centered and un-illuminative. Looking back at
            the history of Christianity as being the heart of a developing culture through the ages: what this was and how it happened would be the prime subject of study for Dawson. He saw the study of the
            Christian culture as more important than studying antiquity, or any other individual thing. History as
            a series of cultures was how he saw the history of the world, and he wanted this model to replace the
            status quo.</p>
        <p>It seems like he had ideas similar to those of JPII: Catholic education should be something
            different. It should be asking bigger questions, seeking deeper wisdom, not content with the way
            things are.</p>
        <p>In summation, Dawson saw the present state of affairs as a watered-down curriculum from ages
            past. Lost was everything that had made it great, and it remained a mediocre and decaying corpse.
            But the main point for Olsen is that perhaps the ideal is out of reach. Reaching for one thing
            precludes reaching for another, and in the end we need to go for what is best and live with the
            consequences.</p>

        <h3 id="the-medieval-university-by-helene-wieruszowski">The Medieval University by Helene Wieruszowski: A Brief Summary</h3>
        <p>A prefatory note: this summary is of the first 50 pages, and is looking for a general
            understanding of the beginnings of the university as an institution. The author begins with an
            obvious fact. This period we are looking into didn't keep meticulous records of every event, thus we
            will not be able to easily see the development of the university. What she does intend to show is the
            events and developments that we do know, and what picture this paints of the early days of the
            university.</p>
        <p>Helene states that the university grew out of an age, it was an expression of an era where
            learning was valued beyond its immediate practical application. It started simply, with students
            gathering around a master. Charlemagne provided an impetus at the first, and monasteries had a
            promising start in opening schools. But in the post-Carolingian era things shifted away from the
            monasteries. The schools centered around the cathedral became the focus.</p>
        <p>With the reforms in the background, the schools set up at the cathedrals were there for the
            benefit of training and educating clergy. Around this time we also see a surge in the amount of
            wandering scholars. The ease of travel and the model of education of students gathered around a
            teacher made it easy for scholars to wander from place to place.</p>
        <p>Towards the end of the twelfth century though, things started to solidify. The heyday of the
            wandering scholar was drawing to a close. The three significant universities rose to prominence
            during this time. The numbers of students and masters increased, everything was booming. But we
            are not yet at the point where they can be fully considered universities, they were still in the
            embryonic stage. It was towards the end of the twelfth and the beginning of the thirteenth centuries
            that the university would come to birth.</p>
        <p>Helene ties this development with the rise in importance of the masters. By flexing their muscles
            by suspending lectures, threatening to leave Paris, closing the school, etc…, the masters were able to
            gain more and more privilege from both royalty and the Church. This lead to the formation of
            familiar structures: guilds or departments for different fields, a rector at the head of the university,
            and so on. By the time we reach the end of the thirteenth century, the great universities would
            appear much more familiar to us than their twelfth century origins.</p>
        <p>Some other significant facts that I failed to include within the chronological order are regional
            differences, importance of dialectics, and heretical themes and their end. Helene goes over regional
            differences briefly, showing how Italy was a little ahead of the game in having schools set up before
            the Carolingians. Germany was the next significant player, taking the lead in scholastic development
            until the middle of the eleventh century, after which France rose to the task and carried the torch.</p>
        <p>The importance of dialectics is not to be underestimated in the nascent universities. It played a
            part in the wandering of scholars, and a greater part in the milieu that found value in education and
            reasoning. And finally, we have heretical tendencies. Various heretical threats raised their ugly heads
            in the twelfth century with the universities. What followed was a back-and-forth fight of bans being
            made, masters ignoring them, new bans, more ignoring, and it goes on. What came out of this fight
            was the movement of making philosophy (the usual culprit in the heretical themes) into the
            handmaid of theology. At the heart of this movement we see the likes of Bonaventure and Aquinas.</p>

        <h3 id="looking-at-the-development-of-the-university">Looking at the Development of the University from Medieval Roots Until The
            Enlightenment with: A History of Western Educational Ideas by Denis Lawton
            and Peter Gordon</h3>
        <p>Beginning with the chapter on the Renaissance, we find our author painting a picture of this time
            period as one of rebellion against the recent past in favor of the more distant past. The <i>trivium</i> and
            <i>quadrivium</i> were being looked at closely and critically. Additions were made to the traditional approach in the forms of literature and physical education. We also see a change in the motivation of
            education, morality enters the stage as a reason for learning. An example of all these developments
            would be St. Thomas More, who for the sake of literature studies insisted on the study of Greek,
            advocated a strict rule of life (part of which was manual labor), and urged learning as a lifelong
            endeavor. Overall, the Renaissance is marked by an emphasis on critical thought and a wide field of
            learning.</p>
        <p>The next period of time would be the Reformation and Counter-Reformation. A pertinent piece
            of information for this period is the arrival of the printing press. Books became cheaper, and ideas
            were able to spread faster. On the Reformation side of the continent, these ideas were a movement
            towards mass literacy, because the Bible needed to be able to be read by all. On the
            Counter-Reformation side of the equation we see some developments particularly spurred on by the
            Jesuits. The first is a systematic organization of curriculum, and the second the implementation of
            testing and examinations which were used to promote competition in learning. It's good to know
            who I have to thank for that [-:</p>
        <p>This brings us to the enlightenment. The themes of this age are an increased emphasis on the
            individual, valuing of reason, and desire for scientific progress. Looking at the picture up to this
            point, this age seems to be the institutionalization of rebellion as a method of learning. Nothing was
            to be safe from criticism, everything was up for grabs. Something of interest for this project would
            be the phenomena of salons and societies. These groupings of like-minded individuals happened
            outside of any formal learning structure, and yet much learning happened within their confines.</p>
        <p>In conclusion, this whole period of time is where we can find the emphasis on moral formation
            within education that I was searching for. It happens early on with the Humanists of theRenaissance, and was seemingly cemented firmly into the Catholic model under the influence of the
            Jesuits.</p>

        <summary id="manyverse_walkthrough">Getting Started with Manyverse</summary>
            <p>Here's a walkthrough on how to get started on Manyverse, a peer-to-peer, offline first social media. <br>
                1. Download the app, you cannot have the same acount on multiple devices, so if you want it on your phone and computer, go ahead and download it on both, but be ready to setup seperate accounts (people usually name one account 'joe smith phone', and the other 'joe smith computer') <br>
                I highly recommend starting with your computer account, the computer app is more dependable. <br>
                2. Setup your account. Everything will be empty, don't worry, that's normal. Setup your profile, upload a profile pic, write a description of yourself. <br>
                3. Now, let's get you connected. go to <a href="https://ssbroom.techpriesthub.xyz/" target="_blank">https://ssbroom.techpriesthub.xyz/</a> in your browser on the same device, on the top right part of screen, right next to 'sign in,' you'll see 'create new invite.' Follow the prompts and connect. <br>
                4. On your connections tab, click through to see the room, and start following everyone you see online. <br>
                5. And now we wait... <br>
                6. Unfortunately, people need to follow you back for you to connect to the network (this is a pain point, and I haven't found a good way to get around it). <br>
                7. In the meantime, make an introduction post, and use the hashtage #new-people and #newhere to get noticed. <br>
                7. I'll try to follow back accounts that join the room at least once a day, so check back after a few days, it'll start downloading posts once we're connected, then start following some people, liking, commenting, all the usual stuff! <br>
                Advanced things to try: <br>
                A. Increase replication hops: go to settings, and increase replication hops to 3 or 4 in order to load more accounts to your device. This will require more memory (each account you can view is stored on your device, which means it's accessible offline, but it also means you can take up a lot of memory if you're not careful), so you can also click through to storage, and increase the storage limit to whatever is good for that device. <br>
                B. Find other open room servers to connect to <a href="https://github.com/ssbc/ssb-server/wiki/%23ssbrooms" target="_blank">here</a> <br>
                c. Connect to pub servers: if you want to meet a lot of people really quickly, a pub server is the way to do that. I'll leave it up to you to do more research and decide if it's something you want to do. Search terms to get you moving in the right direction are: 'ssb' 'pub' 'server'. SSB is the protocol Manyverse is built on, stands for Secure Scuttlebutt. Pub servers have a few drawbacks, but if you want to find other people fast, it's the best way.</p>

        <summary id="hitchikers">Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: the Experiment: the Follow-Up</summary>
            <p>A couple weeks ago, I started an experiment: </p>
            <blockquote >Everything I need to survive in a bag (including a towel, of course). <br>
                My phone lives in the bag, not in my pocket. I take it out of the bag when I want to use it, and put it back when I'm done. <br>
                The bag also contains my tablet, a sketchbook, couple of books, and some other odds and ends (and of course, the towel). <br>
                End goal is to keep the phone on the same level as everything else: a tool, which I use for specific jobs, and then put back in its place when I'm done.</blockquote>
            <p>The idea was, I'd try it out for at least two weeks, even if I hated it, in order to get some better data than just trying it out for a few days. <br>
                However, after just two days, I decided it was no longer an experiment. I would never go back. <br>
                I used a backpack for the bag, and that extra step of having to dig around the backpack to find the phone (I drop it in, and it disappears, just like it should) provides insulation from the immediacy the phone used to represent in my life. <br>
                I had often surmised the availability that a cell phone offered was radical, i.e., not natural. It made me a slave to others. Everyone I typically interact with expects calls and text to be returned within the hour, because that's what they would do. <br>
                But just having the phone not in my pocket, evaporated any compulsion I had to answer right away. The anxiety of being "available," melted away. <br>
                And then there was the other aspect of having a tiny computer at my beck and call. That itch to look things up, scroll through media, revel in distraction. <br>
                But again, just that little bit of removal from immediate proximity, of having to dig the phone out of the backpack, helped immensely to curb that obsession. <br>
                It made the phone a tool. When I need it for something I fish it out and use it for that task, then it goes away. Same as the sketchbook, the tablet, and the various other things I keep in the bag. <br>
                So overall, a successful experiment. I doubt it'll be the same silver bullet for everyone, but I'm really thankful it helped me find some balance and peace in my digital life. <br>
                One final note though: to stop me from reflexively putting the phone in my pocket, especially at first, I figured I should have something else take its place. I decided on two things: my pocket watch, and my pocket knife. I had carried both these things during high school, but got my first cell phone shortly after graduation. I ended up ditching the watch, since the phone told time, as well as ditching the knife, since I didn't want to scratch up the phone. <br>
                Having these two tools back has been amazing. With the pocket watch back, I ditched the wristwatch, which always felt like it literally shackled me to a clock. And the pocket knife comes in handy way more than I expected. <br>
                In closing: we should have never taken the phone off the wall.</p>

        <summary>Saint Maker Whitepaper</summary>
		    <h3 >Executive Summary</h3>
            <p>Building a framework (the Saint Maker) to form evangelists, meant to encompass all aspects of life, making use of any technologies now available, and those developed in the future. The tool for developing the Saint Maker will be a university. The university will consist of teaching companies where students work to cover tuition. The three-fold reason for this model is: to assist in the university's mission by being more inter-connected with daily life, providing various benefits to students, and to help reach financial self-sufficiency as quickly as possible.</p>
		    <h3 >Necessity</h3>
    	    <p>Problem: how to evangelize the whole world?</p>
            <p>Solution: form faith-filled, hard-working Catholics. They will evangelize the world.</p>
            <p>Problem: how to form these Catholics?</p>
            <p>Solution: through a framework of formation that catechizes praxatically and formally.</p>
            <p>Problem: present frameworks (parish catechesis, Catholic schools [including home schools], Catholic universities, and even parishes in general), have a low success rate compared to their failures.</p>
            <p>Solution: our present methods are too fragmented. A true solution encompasses all aspects of a person's life. As God meets people at all times in their lives, the solution must be present at all times and in all places as well. We need a way to connect everything: parish life (liturgy, prayer, charity), family life, catechesis, learning, social life, financial life, business life, family life.</p>
            <p>Problem: there presently exists no way to extrinsically connect all these things outside of the individual them-self (who obviously connects all these things by being the point of conflux). </p>
            <p>Solution: technology for a complete solution is not yet achieved, but using existent technological means, a framework could be made that begins to bridge all those areas of life.</p>
            <p>That is our goal.</p>
            <p>A way to connect prayer and work, family and friends, liturgy and learning. All within an explicitly and overwhelmingly Catholic context. To form disciples of all nations.</p>
            <h3 >Nexus</h3>
            <p>The overarching goal is to use any present and future technological means to create a framework for Catholic life that promotes sanctity.</p>
            <p>The task is the same as it's always been, but new tools to aid in accomplishing that task are continually developed.</p>
            <p>A full answer of what the Saint Maker will look like (this nexus that impregnates the whole life of a Catholic with Catholicity), is not yet clear.</p>
            <p>To find clarity on how it needs to be designed, the first step is to develop a place for the incubation of this nexus, and that place is a university.</p>
            <h3 >University</h3>
            <p>There is no need to reinvent the wheel, the Catholic Church knows how to run universities.</p>
            <p>This one will have a goal: making a community that has both the capability and the resources to develop the Saint Maker.</p>
            <p>Since we will be building a new university, there are aspects that must be considered to make it the ideal incubation chamber for our task. The typical divide from academia and everyday life, is not helpful in regards to the goal of this university. In bridging the two, we can build a university that is better equipped to design and build the Saint Maker, as well as provide benefits to students not found in a typical university setting.</p>
            <h3 >University Life</h3>
            <p>A student begins by applying online. This first step is even a class, as the application is a tutorial in how to effectively fill out applications for employment. Part of that application is applying for your first job in the university.</p>
            <p>If accepted, follow up tutorials are begun to prepare for a job interview, which will also be a teaching opportunity. Concurrently, tutorials are begun for placement in a dorm, which is carried out exactly the same as applying for an apartment.</p>
            <p>With acceptance to the university, a final job offer, and a dorm “rented,” the student is ready to move in.</p>
            <p>The first semester is practicum oriented: classes in everything you need to be a successful adult in this world (faith being most important, so classes in how to live a saintly life, but also money management, time management, how to study, how to learn, how to think effectively, how to keep a house, etc).</p>
            <p>Towards the end of the first semester, begin transition into formal education. Making use of online and in-person classes (both developed by the university but, especially initially, also from other universities), and also other programs for blue collar work (apprenticeships and certificate programs).</p>
            <p>During first semester, the student will apply for a mentor. This mentor will help them through the growing pains of the first semester (which will be substantial, especially in comparison with your typical university experience [due to essentially needing to act like an adult from day one]), and should also function as a very basic spiritual advisor.</p>
            <p>There will be no separation between academia and the rest of the world, this will be exactly like the real world. There will be no breaks in the student's job, they’ll need to negotiate time off to visit their families.</p>
            <p>The university will also function as it's own micro-economy. Students will be paying their way by working, but a profit-sharing system will help encourage diligent work, help them learn money management, and further stimulate the local economy.</p>
            <p>Our hypothetical student will continue into their second year, able at any time to apply for a different job or a different dorm. University life is year-round, both to better integrate into real life, but also to avoid any difficulties in staffing university jobs.</p>
            <p>As the student approaches the end of year two, it's their turn to become a mentor. Necessary training will happen during the year, and the student will learn how to sort through applications as they pick their mentee.</p>
            <p>The student continues until they complete their formal education program, at which point, they should have all the necessary skills to move easily into the real world.</p>
            <p>At this point it also seems another mentorship program can be available, with students studying Human Resources helping recent graduates find and secure a job.</p>
            <h3 >Embryonic Saint Maker</h3>
            <p>The one thing that travels with most people throughout their day, is their phone. It is not a perfect end goal of what the Saint Maker is trying to accomplish, but it’s a start.</p>
            <p>Growing along with the university, will be a mobile application, that will be the start of the Saint Maker. It will be a type of digital parish.</p>
            <p>A place for prayer, community, challenge to conversion, and comfort in times of distress.</p>
            <p>It can also serve dual purpose as an interface for students with the university. Again, a further inter-connection between different aspects of life.</P>
            <h3 >Road Map</h3>
            <p>The university, with a set goal of developing a formational nexus spanning the entirety of human life, must be designed to facilitate achieving that goal. And in the interest of treating funding as something intrinsic to this mission, the university must be self-sustaining almost from the beginning, and moving as quickly as possible to generate the resources to pursue it's goal.</p>
            <p>With this in mind, and seeing the examples of colleges that are set up so that all students work to earn their tuition, it seems the best model to follow (graduate with a degree and a resume).</p>
            <p>The university will essentially be made up of teaching “companies.” This should be beneficial for the students, as well as providing a way to begin from nothing, and grow organically, without a large initial funding drive.</p>
            <h4>Phase One</h4>
            <p>Step 1.</p>
            <p>Web Development Teaching Company: immediate goal of building the online tools needed for the fledgling university, also providing a place to work for the founding students. Goal is to be self-sufficient as soon as possible.</p>
            <p>Step 2.</p>
            <p>Food Truck/Restaurant Teaching Company: first step towards a physical location (since the Web Development Teaching Company can exist completely online), can be run by a small crew, and provide jobs for few students.</p>
            <p>Step 3.</p>
            <p>Begin Retreat Center: end goal is to have a fully functioning retreat center run by a Hospitality Teaching Company, but at this point construction will be begun on parts of the retreat center to provide housing for students as the physical location of the university is built up.</p>
            <p>Step 4.</P>
            <p>Hospitality Teaching Company: manages the embryonic Retreat Center/dorms, to be expanded as soon as the retreat center is fully operational. (potential for properties in the area to be purchased and run as AirBNB's to expand company and provide more revenue)</p>
            <p>Step 5.</p>
            <p>Restaurant: end goal of the Food Truck is to establish a full Restaurant, again to provide jobs for students, but also food for the students and faculty of the growing campus of the university.</p>
            <p>Step 6.</p>
            <p>Full Retreat Center: phase one will be complete when the Retreat Center is fully constructed, students have been moved to new housing, and it is run by the Hospitality Teaching Company.</p>
            <p>Step 7.</p>
            <p>Construction Teaching Company: to facilitate building the campus, as well as providing jobs for students, but ultimately to build the center of the university campus:</p>
            <p>Step 8.</p>
            <p>Build Church:  to be the visual beating heart of the university. Not rushed, planned carefully, built to last, and absolutely beautiful for the glory of God and the spreading of the Gospel.</p>
            <p>Step 9.</p>
            <p>Build Library: not just a building, and not a typical library. It is to be a place fulfilling the usual tasks of a library, both online and in it's physical location. But it is also to be a laboratory which will work on the Saint Maker.</p>
            <h4>Phase Two:</h4>
            <p>At this point, with the university off to a good start, it will be time to begin committed work on the Saint Maker. All the tools will be in place, but from this vantage point it is difficult to know how the work will proceed. Only God knows how long it will take to get to this point, and we will leave it up to Him to direct the work when the time comes.</p>
            <p>Concurrently, the university should continue to grow, with new teaching companies and other additions to the campus.</p>

			<summary>Tiny House Video</summary>
				<h3 >A tiny house vid that touches on a lot of topics</h3>
				<p>I've watched this video (even though it's a whole hour) at least 4 times. It's a walkthrough of Brad “Darby” Kittel's tiny house building operation, filmed in 2014. This eccentric gentleman has a wealth of knowledge on the materials he salvaged, sustainability and resource stewardship, house building methodologies, and whole bunch of other stuff.</p>
				<p>Major thoughts prompted by this video: necessity of living small, keeping minimal possessions, which leads to a richer life in human interaction, spending as much time outdoors as possible, seeking a depth of knowledge in your field of expertise, and being creative to avoid government overreach [-:</p>
