Welcome to Bethel; sorry your old school closed

Have you heard the news? Taylor University decided this week to close its Fort Wayne campus. http://insidehighered.com/news/2008/10/14/taylor


Here's my top five reasons TUFW students should transfer to Bethel. (Do I have to remind you that top five or top ten lists of this sort are composed "tongue in cheek"?)

1. We recently acquired and bulldozed an old trailer park where you’d be welcome to pitch a tent. Good squirrel and duck hunting; clean water source nearby.

2. Let’s face it; it should’ve been Bethel-Fort Wayne in the first place. Taylor cheated us on the coin flip.

3. Spend your lunch hour on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays watching your professors put on a dazzling display of basketball wizardry.

4. We hate Taylor, yes we do; we hate Taylor, how about you? Welcome to the club.

5. We have a really good school song.

Seriously, though, it's a sad and traumatic time for Taylor-Ft. Wayne students. Come one, come all. We'd love to have you!
