Fall classes started up today. I can’t describe the privilege of teaching about Jesus and the four gospels to 310 students. Today there were there with new iPhones and iTouches in hand. I’m optimistic that these will add to rather than detract from the teaching experience.
Here are nine of my teaching assistants — a talented bunch. I’ll lecture on Mondays and Wednesdays to the whole class, and then they meet on Fridays in groups of 31 with the TAs. In other words, it couldn’t happen without these TAs (all grad students in the College of Biblical Studies with over 18 hours of grad work behind them).

I think this was my favorite Olympics in a long time. I’m glad it’s over so I have my evenings back!

You can’t make this stuff up.
I hope you have a great year Mike. Good looking assistants you’ve got there.
These stealth Olympic snuck up on me - my highlights: Phelps half-stroke wall touch; Shawn Johnson’s beam; Nastia’s smile; Dara Tores’ mom-spirited teamwork; multiple Lightning Bolts; and Misty and Kerri.
Mike, if you are smart(goes without saying) you will keep an eye on the guy on the far right of your picture.
Clint - Duly noted!
The link to Jericho…. the BOY WONDER.
You don’t seem like a FOX NEWS kind of guy…
