Something's brewing, folks.
Usually the BJU Board of Trustees meets at the end of the Spring Semester. That way they are present for the Commencement events and all the flashy Artist Series events.
Last year (2023) the Board meeting was on Thursday and Friday, April 20-21. And that was a monumental meeting, remember. That's when Pettit's resignation was final.
They met again on May 16 to name Alan Benson as the interim.
But this year? They've moved it up a whole month into March. And it's during Holy Week!
Tumblr media
Meeting on Holy Wednesday and Maundy Thursday? Something tells me that they will not be foot washing and reading John 14 to each other.
Sure, sure, sure. They are going to name the next president. But the Pettit resignation was in many ways more monumental and more ground-shaking than this announcement.
What else are they going to decide next week?

"Our students are not political pawns": hundreds gather on campus to oppose elimination of DEI, Richard Corcoran
“Fight fight fight, education is a human right!” This mantra was chanted by hundreds of students, alums, parents and community members gathered on the steps of the Hamilton “Ham” Center before the Feb. 28 New College Board of Trustees (BOT) meeting. The meeting would be the first where newly appointed Interim President Richard Corcoran would be present, and on the agenda was the abolition of the…

“Many live with entire reputation, on much less, and none ought to expend more.”
--Princeton's Board of Trustees, as quoted in Poulson's Daily Advertiser, April 14, 1819, on why parents should not send students too much money. (The cost of attendance was then estimated to be a maximum of $450 per year.)

Boards Can Be Agents of Much Needed Social Change
The United States stands at a pivotal moment in history; public awareness of the inequalities still faced by marginalized people in America, including people of color, women and the LGBTQIA+ community, is growing, and as a country, we are grappling with how to affect change. As we debate around dinner tables, at work, and in social settings how best to strengthen our society and leave bias and prejudice behind us all, one area could be key: the boardroom. Simone Grimes, who sits on the board of directors for Green Growth Group Inc., Junior Achievement, Big Brother Big Sister and Whistle Blower Aid, believes that boards of directors for publicly traded, privately held and non-profit organizations play a critical role in creating a truly inclusive society that respects all genders, ethnicities, and viewpoints.

“The Gates of Katharion” by Maxwell I. Gold
Please welcome Maxwell I. Gold into the Poetry Spotlight reading “The Gates of Katharion” originally published in Weird Tales Magazine #366, Sword and Sorcery Issue.
Iron mouths smiled with teeth of rust and blood,while Katharion waited,with hinges so black and doomful.On amethystine nights, there collecteda mass of death and pride as the armies of tomorrowrotted and decayed on fields of someday.Old bones, so gray and dusty,withered under shadows aghast,expelled from garish, crooked towers,while Katharion waited;where cities fell, banners wilted in the…

So during the Praise Service while everybody was singing "Great is Thy Faithfulness," they panned the audience.
I noticed that the students looked pretty bored. Yawns, arms folded.
But then I noticed something else. Do you see it?
Tumblr media
The Board always sits on the front row of the blue for these events. And you can see the Reserved seats there. That's for the Board.
There's only one member of the Board there. Steve Pettit. Alone. All alone.
They didn't come to the Praise Service. Are they holding their vote during the Praise Service? Did they NOT want to be confronted by students after the Praise Service?
What's up, Trustees?

It strikes us that the dignity of the professor’s calling is very seriously impaired by such trivial work as investigating the merits and truthfulness of a student’s excuse for absence from morning chapel and the like.
Princetonian, May 7, 1880, on why the Board of Trustees should appoint a committee to handle student discipline

BREAKING: Ruth Gottesman, the chairwoman of Einstein’s Board of Trustees, has donated $1 billion to the Albert Einstein College of Medicine in the Bronx. 
The Albert Einstein College of Medicine was formerly owned by Yeshiva University (YU) and trained thousands of Jewish doctors. 
The gift is considered the largest in history made to a medical school in the United States. 
Students will no longer have to pay tuition following the donation from the longtime professor.
The school will become permanently tuition free starting next year. Any students in their final year of medical school who already paid for the current semester will be fully reimbursed.

The organized opposition to gender-inclusive education in Ontario failed on Monday to make significant gains in province-wide school board elections, according to unofficial election results.
A CBC News investigation had identified more than 50 candidates for trustee positions who were running on a variety of promises that alarmed advocates for transgender students.
[...]
Of the dozens of candidates running against gender inclusivity, only around 10 appeared set to win their campaigns, and most were incumbents whose social conservative views were already well-known to voters beforehand.
That estimate is based on unofficial results posted on city, town and county websites. Some have yet to post results for school board elections. City officials across the province will begin validating the results today.
