The men’s team played the #2
ranked Patriots last Thursday.
After trailing by 4 points at the
half, Kuyper started the
second half by falling into an
18 point hole with the Patriots
leadings 54-36. The Cougars
were able to regain compo-
sure and finished the game on
a 41-18 run over the final 10
minutes, sparked by freshman
CJ Bussey’s 11 points off the
bench. Kuyper received
strong play in the post by

scoring 11 points and 10
rebounds, and senior Omar
Haynes with 16 points and 15
rebounds. Junior Sal Hermiz
led all scorers with 25 points
and 7 assists. Senior Alex
Rogers also chipped in with 10
points and 3 assists.

strong plays were led by
Omar Haynes and Audel

What I read today was a prayer by Anselm that
was written as a request for God to grant man the ability
to love God more. This is something I should be praying
for everyday.
What’s funny is that in human terms love is not
something that we request from another person. If
someone does not care for us of their own free well, we
would not call it love. But when approaching God, we
can never hope to love him of our own free will. So how
is this really love?
I’d say that it is love because God controls everything in
the universe. God created us and causes everything
within us to have being and to function properly.
Because of this, I would say that God can influence our
emotions or our actions greatly. And love is not simply
an emotion. It can definitely manifest itself in feelings of
excitement. But at the heart of it (pun intended), love
is service. It’s action. Words and fleeting emotions are
easy. Living is hard.
So I guess I would sum up Anselm’s prayer in this:
Anselm is praying that God would give him a desire to
live in a way that honors and serves God.
Anselm says that his desire to love God, his desire to
desire God, comes from God. When addressing God
Anselm asks that God would “give me what you have
made me want” and “grant me what you have made me
long for.” Anselm claims that “if my soul wills anything,
you gave it me.” So not only does our desire and love for
God have to come from God, but our desire to desire to
love God has to come from God. None of this can be
willed by us. (I feel a predestination vs. free will battle
beginning to rage inside of me. Let’s not let this turn into
that slippery slope. I don’t want to begin talking about
whether God chooses us or we choose God. I just know
that without God’s help we couldn’t love him in the way
that he requires - which is with all that we are)

Student Government would like to update you on two things that they have voted on over the past couple of weeks.
1. The deadline for applications for running for next year’s Student Government has been extended to February 15th, so you have exactly a week to get those in!
2. Student Government has decided to provide funds to do some up- dates in the Commuter Lounge. Together with Student Life, they are looking into furniture right now.
There are a couple other things in the works right now that Student Government is very excited to share with you once they are set in stone, so stay tuned!

As a big thank you for reading, we have a special prize for
you! But there’s a catch. You must be able to recite these
three things at the Student Life front desk from memory.
What day is the Financial Aid office open for walk-ins?
What is the SpiL series this semester?
When is the new deadline for Student Government
applications?
If you can name these three things, you can either receive
a candy bar or enter in a raffle for ice skating gift
certificates at the end of the month! There will be four
raffle winners.
