David Beckles, President of the East Caribbean Conference of Seventh-day Adventists, Dr. Norma Niles, Coordinator of the Barbados (Satellite) USC extension campus,  representatives from the University of The West Indies - Cave Hill Campus, and several other distinguished guests in what promises to be  a strategic event not only for Barbados, but also for USC and SDAs throughout the region.

Two career lessons for every unemployed tertiary graduate

The first of these lessons is this: The important thing is not where you start but that you start...The second lesson is very much related to the first and is this: It's not what you do but how you do what you do. How you do what you do relates to your work attitude.

Dr. Calvin B. Rock, a former President of Oakwood University and a former Vice President of the General Conference of Seventh-day Adventists, will be preaching at the Mile And A Quarter SDA Church next Sabbath, December 8, 2012. Whether or not you are a conference or local church worker all USCians should come out and enjoy this rare spiritual treat at the feet of one of the truly great Adventist preachers of our time.  Dr. Rock also has roots in Barbados (in St. Lucy to be exact) which of course officially makes him 'a piece of De Rock.'
