Spring semester starts tomorrow

I'll be teaching Introduction to Bible Study Methods on Monday afternoons -- should be fun. I was also supposed to teach World Religions at both the Chuuk and Palau teaching facilities but last week both of them canceled the classes because too few students had signed up. That's disappointing -- but okay because there is more than enough on my administrative plate right now as I'm trying to get a handle on the academic VP job, wrap things up with the distance education grant, prepare for the upcoming reaccreditation visit, and we're in the midst of investigating expansion of PIBC to sites in Tonga, Fiji, and Hawaii -- including some graduate-level seminary options. Perhaps the cancellations are a gift.
