Conversations CD-Rom
Students are exposed to many different messages during their college experience, but few of them are associated with true faith. Conversations is a multimedia computer cd that presents faith through the issues students really care about. Issues such as the problem of pain and diversity are addressed by professors from around the country who speak from personal experience.

Conversations
also contains valuable information about getting better grades and finding a job after college. Conversations introduces students to professors of faith in a non-confrontational and visually stimulating way that allows students to explore the issues they care about. To find out more about Conversations, view a full index and learn how to obtain copies, visit www.leaderu.com/conversations.
