Student Publishes Research in North Georgia Student Philosophy Conference Proceedings

HIGH POINT, N.C., Jan. 25, 2012 – Catherine Hendricks, a senior majoring in religion and physics at High Point University, recently had her research paper published in the North Georgia Student Philosophy Conference Proceedings, a collection of the best papers contributed by students who attended the conference.

Her paper, titled “Possible Worlds, Sin and Why It All Matters,” details evil’s place in the world and how it fits into God’s plan.

Hendricks composed the paper while studying abroad at the University of St. Andrews in St. Andrews, Scotland. There, she studied in the divinity school and had the opportunity to meet theologians Steve Holmes, NT Wright and Alan Torrance.

She attended the NGSPC conference at Kennesaw State University in the spring of 2011.
