First week of College

Met all my professors this week. I think I am really going to enjoy this semester! The following are some quotes to introduce you to the type of people I will be learning from for the next three months:

"I am going over to the Seminary tomorrow, to put the fear of God and red ink into all those Seminary students who think they know everything about writing a paper. So, there will be no class for you tomorrow. We'll meet as usual on Thursday though. You may spend your day off writing a paper for me."
~Marsha Omanson, English Professor for both Boyce College and Southern Seminary~

"You're from New Jersey? They let you out?"
~R. Bruce Carlton, Head of the International Missions Department and Professor for Boyce College~

"Do NOT go to bed early, do NOT socialize, get to know each other and bond with your dormmates, do NOT get a head start on homework. Go to the lounge and WATCH THE OLYMPICS! It comes ONCE every four years, people!"
~Nathan Platt, Assistant professor of Music Ministry and worship, Professor leading Boyce Choral~

"I enjoy discussion in my class. But we don't want to chase too many rabbit trails. The reason why is the Gospels end with the Ressurection. So we need to get through this material and end the semester with the end of the Gospels. This is so that we don't leave Jesus in the grave like the Liberals do."
~Dr. Dave Deklavon, Dean for Academic Administration and Professor of New Testament Studies.~

"There is a group of people anxiously waiting for you to finish your training so that you can minister to them."
~Dr. David Adams, professor of Youth Ministry and my professor for Introduction to Christian Education.~

" 'There is not one square inch in the whole domain of human existance where Christ, who is the sovereign of all, does not say, "This is Mine." ' "
~Professor Wellum, quoting Abraham Cuyper, the former Prime Minister of Holland, in Worldviews class.~

So there you have it. usually I try to describe people, but I think the above introduces them adequately enough. Don't you agree?
