His "sermons" touched on a wide range of topics, from economics to social mores to religion to basic simple truths. Country Parson. ComicStripFan.Com.

The Wideman Prize is an annual competition designed to help young people develop the leadership and organizational skills needed to succeed in the modern work place.
Using projects as a vehicle for learning, the competition requires teams of students to select, initiate, plan and then execute a real life project as part of their studies. Teams are judged based on their ability to work as a team, organize and plan resources, achieve results and show their ability to present a persuasive case for their projects to a panel of project management judges.
The competition is open to students who are enrolled in Wideman Education Foundation (WEF) approved training courses. By introducing the element of competition to students’ educational environment, the Prize is set to lift the bar on students’ achievement levels and to attract a broader cross section of students to learn-by-doing. Teams who demonstrate their capabilities are selected as finalists in the competition.
