Alf Lohne, a high ranking SDA General Conference official (now retired) divulged in his book on Russia, SDA students in Russia attend school on Saturday, the Sabbath. Lohne said that the General Conference advises Russian SDA parents to send their children to school on Sabbath. This is breaking God’s law in obeisance to Caesar. This precludes SDA’s as being God’s commandment-keeping people. Search for the word “Saturday” at the following links.

“Russian students hardly get any holiday breaks. A week at Christmas, a week at Easter, and maybe three weeks or so during the summer. They also have classes Monday through Saturday. Classes start at 8:30 a.m. and can go as late as 10 p.m.’’

CLUSTERS

 

“Until their senior year, full-time students had practically no choice: they had to take the pre-determined sequence of classes (clusters) every semester. This was a very heavy studying load: about 6 hours of classes every weekday and Saturday, with a large amount of homework for each class. After the first three years, the students chose a specialization within their discipline, and this allowed them more freedom in selecting their classes.”
