Solitary Thoughts
Believing the truth and three good polygraphs will prevail in the American Justice System, Dan Dixon was still convicted in court based on circumstantial evidence. Sentenced to two 25 year terms, parole contingent upon admission of guilt, Dan boldly maintains his innocence as of the date of this writing, Oct. 2, 2015. With his life repeatedly placed in danger, Dan is forced to protect himself, which earns him solitary confinement. Dan forges a strong relationship with Jesus as his only companion and begins "penning his pain." Viscerally searing, this chillingly true story of ex-collegiate football player, Dan Dixon, was gutted out through years of waiting, hoping, praying, believing, and abiding. It's written through the literal blood, sweat and tears that reveal the faith and perseverance of a man totally committed to Jesus Christ and his desire to share His faithfulness with others.

What if every part of our everyday life was turned into a game? The implications of “gamification.” What if our whole life were turned into a game? What sounds like the premise of a science fiction novel is today becoming reality as “gamification.” As more and more organizations, practices, products, and services are infused with elements from games and play to make them more engaging, we are witnessing a veritable ludification of culture. Yet while some celebrate gamification as a possible answer to mankind's toughest challenges and others condemn it as a marketing ruse, the question remains: what are the ramifications of this “gameful world”? Can game design energize society an...

Black Power on Campus
Joy Ann Williamson charts the evolution of black consciousness on predominately white American campuses during the critical period between the mid-1960s and mid-1970s, with the Black student movement at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign serving as an illuminating microcosm of similar movements across the country. Drawing on student publications of the late 1960s and early 1970s, as well as interviews with student activists, former administrators, and faculty, Williamson discusses the emergence of Black Power ideology, what constituted "blackness," and notions of self-advancement versus racial solidarity. Promoting an understanding of the role of black youth in protest movements, Black Power on Campus is an important contribution to the literature on African American liberation movements and the reform of American higher education.
