The Importance of Being Earnest
Last night I went with a group of friends to watch the Covenant production of “The Importance of Being Earnest”. It was hilarious! I am one who always enjoys a good play, but I think that this production would have converted even the most pessimistic play critic to optimism in the arts. I was impressed [...]

Every year I look forward to the spring musical here at Covenant. Students and faculty have been working on the play since last fall and these past to weekends it has finally been in production. This year’s musical was Guys and Dolls. The actors were great, the actresses were great, and the singing was superb. [...]

Teaching In A Pluralistic Society
One of my most interesting classes I’m taking this semester is Teaching in a Pluralistic Society. We are learning how to teach a classroom filled with all sorts of cultures, races, backgrounds, etc. I went into the class thinking I pretty much knew everything. I had heard about the discrimination of Irish, blacks, women, [...]

Why Sign Up for Covenant’s Next CPW?
Campus Preview Weekend, although exhausting, is so much fun. I love getting to meet people from all over the world that are interested in Covenant. I usually spend the weekend standing behind the desk checking people in, but my favorite thing to do is walking student to their rooms and giving tours because this gives [...]

Spring banquet is the perfect mixture of everything that’s good. The banquet is at The Hunter’s Museum here in Chattanooga, it’s a great setting. We walk [...]

Catacomb’s Folk Festival
Tonight was Catacomb’s Folk Festival. This is a night in which students sign up to perform talent acts. Students do anything from poetry reading to musical renditions. Some students play pieces that they’ve written themselves, others play classics that everyone enjoys to hear, and then there are those that give us a break from the [...]

Nicole Braddock Bromley
Last week we had Nicole Braddock Bromley come speak in chapel. Wow, what a story she had! It was a story of brokenness; it was a story that is too common in today’s society. Nicole Braddock Bromley suffered from being sexually abused growing up. As she gave statistics my heart sank. She explained that 1 [...]

Let It Snow
Yesterday we had snow on the mountain. It is so beautiful when it snows. The campus is covered with a thick white sheet, however this never lasts long at all. As soon as there is enough snow on the ground to cover up the green grass below everyone pulls out their gloves, boots, and sleds. [...]

New Family Members
Covenant had around 30 transfers this year and we got four of them on our hall. It’s fun getting to see new faces around! I have to say, I am so impressed with how they’re able to handle everything. They seem very calm as they finish registration, get all their paperwork done, and begin forming [...]
