Carter gives 2nd Stewart Lecture
By Karen X Beckett
News Editor
After months of preparation and anticipation by the faculty
and staff, students and all of the
people \vho were instrumental in
bringing Former President Jimmy
Carter to Stetson to speak at the
Second Annual James A. Stewart
Lecture sponsored by the Institute
for Christian Ethics, the waiting is
over and so is the event.
Starting off the event was
the Question and Answer session
for current Stetson students, faculty
and staff.
Held in the Elizabeth Hall
Chapel, it provided an opportunity
for students to ask questions of
Carter without having to compete
with the local media and townspeople who attended the actual
Stewart Lecture.
Following this session
Carter was led to the Carlton Union
Building where a Student Leader
Reception was held in the Stetson
Room.
This reception gave campus organizations an opportunity to
show Carter what type of leader-
shipis takmgplace on Stetson campus.
While there were about 20
organizations present, only Habitat
for Humanity was allowed to make
a formal presentation to Carter.
But. while making the
rounds of the room, he received
several mini-presentations and gifts
from other groups.
Carter gave the Second
Annual James A. Steward Lecture
on Christian Ethics in the Edmunds
Center at 8 p.m.
The topic of his speech
was Christian Ethics in Secular
Society.
Dr. H. Douglas Lee. President of Stetson University introduced Carter using references to
his being named Time magazine's
Man ofthe Year 1977 with the fact
that economists admired his extraordinary tenacity and his cold
concentration, and that they called
him "Ironpants."
Carter began his speech
with a joke, telling the audience
that he was not a good speaker and
the only way he could relax was to
tell a joke, even if they were not very
funny.
He emphasized that we as
Christian people should do everything we could to enhance the greatness of nations and to use our personal gifts to achieve greatness.
He declared that our nation is one ofthe most racists in the
world, and not necessarily due entirely to color or race, but also to the
poor.
The Rich versus the Poor
was one of his main focuses.

student leaders rushed over to the

Among the invited. African American's Student
Association's Renzi Green

voice as she stated "It's good that
we had the chance to be in an
informal setting with Mr. Carter
and that we had the chance to
meet him if we chose to do so "
The purpose of this reception was to show Carter how
