Bend ‘moral arc’ toward justice, Bluffton University graduates urged

Posted by Fred Steiner on May 6, 2013 - 9:50pm

Minutes away from becoming Bluffton University graduates on May 5, 279 students were reminded that they have another test.

“That test is called ‘the rest of your life,’” said Dr. J. Denny Weaver, a professor emeritus of religion at Bluffton and the speaker at the university’s 113th annual commencement ceremony.

The test is “how well you invest the education you have acquired,” he said, urging the graduates to do so by helping bend the moral arc that the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. said is long but “bends toward justice.”
