Education in Zion



For my assignment this week, I went to see the Education in Zion exhibit at the JFSB.  It had lots of stories and quotes about the rise of church academies and the fall that came after.  It talked about the struggles between science and religion and the horrible things that occurred due to this.  Teachers were fired, students enraged, and the public was in uproar.  But the University pulled through all of this and emerged into the world-class establishment it is today.  The exhibit also spoke about the creation of seminary and institute and it was very interesting to learn all about it.  Here are some pictures of the exhibit itself:
