Life of Pride

Saturday, April 01, 2006

In this time of ideological turmoil at PHC, I am curiously pressed to read as many different accounts of events as possible, and to call all my friends to talk matters over. Hypotheses are forming in my mind, but I don't want to put them together yet in writing. Hasty judgments are worse than none.

I love PHC. Or to be more precise, I love that PHC is trying to find truth. Up to this time, it hasn't yet found the one best way of doing things. I'm not sure that such a way exists, or, if it does, that we can achieve it on Earth. We can only do the best we can, ever reaching toward it. In the process, conflict occurs. We're sinful human beings. I never expected anything else.

Comments:

Six professors have resigned (one because he is going to a different job; five for ideological reasons). The administration and faculty are fighting with each other. Students are taking sides. I can't say too much more without making conclusions that I'm not yet ready to say.

I'm off campus in California visiting my family; I knew about five--who was the fifth? Dr. Bates? I feel so frustrated not knowing what's going on!

In addition, I'm inclined to think that Dr. Carroll (who is leaving) was distrubed with the situation. Drs. Protic and Bonicelli left because of Farris.

Yes, Dr. Bates is the last.
Josh: And you know this how? That is a radical assertion, especially considering that both Drs. Bonicelli and Protic were leaving for excellent jobs, and Dr. Farris fully supported them.

Oh, and Dr. Carroll is leaving because she is getting married! Let's just see Dr. Farris have something to do with that!

Why blog? Everyone's doing it. Normally that would be enough to keep me far, far away, but the concept is too cool. Spread your personal thoughts to the world - far better than talking, because you can say anything, and you don't need the courage to look someone in the eye. So, with these reasons in mind, I have embarked. Enjoy, or not, as the case may be. I know I will.
