Limited
Seats Available for Community Breakfast
Faculty and staff are invited on a first-come basis to the SPU Seattle
Community Breakfast on Wednesday, April 4, from 7-8:45 a.m. in the Grand
Ballroom of the Seattle Sheraton Hotel. Dr. William J. Bennett, former
secretary of education and "drug czar," will give the keynote address.
Dr. Bennett is one of our nation's most respected writers, commentators
and orators. He has held several high-level federal positions, including
secretary of education, chairman of the National Endowment for the Humanities.
He is perhaps best known as the author of The Book of Virtues,
which established him as a champion of bedrock values and morals. The
book enjoyed a phenomenal 88 weeks on The New York Times best-seller
lists. The breakfast will be attended by more than 800 business and
political leaders from the Seattle area and is designed to better acquaint
the business community with SPU. Now in its fifth year, the annual event
is co-sponsored by University Advancement and the School of Business
and Economics. If you're interested in attending, please RSVP to ramyers@spu.edu.
Spring
Forward on Sunday
Just a reminder that Daylight Savings Time begins at 2 a.m. on Sunday,
April 1. Remember to set your clocks ahead one hour.

Wall
Publishes 2 Peter Study
Rob Wall, professor of Christian scriptures, will have his study titled
“The Canonical Function of 2 Peter” published in Biblical Interpretation,
9/1 (2001), 64-81. This study illustrates how the theological perspective
of 2 Peter complements 1 Peter in forming Scripture’s distinctive Petrine
witness to God. Rob also delivered lectures at Point Loma Nazarene University
in San Diego on a “Theological Reading of Scripture” during the “Rattle
in Seattle,” but thinks the two events were totally unrelated.
