If you ask Mac Brown, an Early Childhood Educa- lit
tion professor, what he did this summer, he would th<
probably put your summer to shame.
Brown, the faculty adviser for Habitat and Human- th<
ity, spent his August in the Soviet Union helping to de
restore a Russian Orthodox cathedral. an
It turned into even more of an adventure than he ov
had suspected when a coup attempted to overthrow
the Soviet government. Although the coup failed, it de
created a massive attitude change. Brown's group had Lii
the chance to provide one communitv with insieht into fe*

out the Soviet Union. re]
Brown and 13 volunteers worked on the cathedral <
in the small town of Dimidov. For 70 years of Com- tee
munist reign, Russia's grand cathedrals were used as mo
government storage space. In 1988, Soviet President vie
Mikhail Gorbachev returned all confiscated property out
back to the church. Ru
At that time, there were only 300 "working" Soviet Uk
churches. There are now more than 12,000 churches 1
after encouragement from groups such as the National fun
Council on Churches. riv<
The Soviets, with generations of virtual atheism behind
them, are now unsure of how to worship. The j
volunteers spent three weeks chipping plaster, digging
holes and using pulleys to transfer bricks from one n*
level to another in the cathedral. a

Brown believes their attempt will serve as a role ma

have. Most of the Russian population has never been thii
in a church, he said, and of those that have, most onl
know the church as it was before the Communist acti
Party: the incense, robes and priests who babbled in i
foreign Slavic tongues. cris

tiich is done partly by copying other churches. "We
;re willing to come from another country, go to this
tie town of Dimidov. . . We came and did the work
t guy next door could have and didn't."
Gradually, the Soviets will learn re-establishing
eir church is an important endeavor and they will
velop their own national religion by observing us
d choosing which characteristics they want as their
m, Brown said.
Brown's group traveled with 14 Soviet college stunts:
11 from Russia and one each from Latvia,
thuania and Georgia. When asked if any expressed
tr of democracy, he answered they do not seem to
ir democracy, but they do feel hostile towards other
t_t*
WDUCS.
Df the group that traveled with the American volunrs,
the Lativan and the Lithuanian students were the
?st urgent in their desire for freedom from the Sot
Union. The Georgian did not feel as strongly abseparation.
The nationalists of the group were the
ssian students who expressed "anti-Latvian, antiraine,
anti-Lithuanian" views.
3rown believes democracy will not work in a disictional
republic. A week before the volunteers ar3d
in Russia, he explained, 'There was a reunion
ir Red Square of soldiers who fought in
*hanistan."
irown said while there, he saw a local vendor putl
free enterprise to work selling watermelons out of

jiers smashed the cart and melons and injured the

They don't perceive freedom like we do. I don't
lk they they understand yet. It means you're not

rhe Russian students believe this national identity
lis will be resolved to include a parliament with a
