Comment on A New Endowment Program for Adventist Education by Holly Pham.
I agree with David Read and others that this program is simply another way of getting our money and still keep going in the wrong direction. Sean’s idea that the Conference will help protect the integrity is ridiculous.
Look what the NCC is doing now: women’s pastoral ordination, SDA pastors endorsing “gay marriage” the horrific examples of staffing at our SDA colleges, including PUC, the out-of-control problems of alcohol and drugs (especially pot) at PUC, etc.
Who in their right mind could support the “Conference” especially the NCC being in charge of this system?!

A New Endowment Program for Adventist Education
A few weeks ago, a representative from the NCC came to Sac Central SDA Church to sell this idea. It was met a with lukewarm, at best reception.
Some SDA’s may be ignorant enough to let the NCC pull this scheme off, but many will not.

What exactly does “more inclusive” mean? The Northern California Conference uses this term in their literature, without explaining what it really means.

@David Read, Can ET or Advindicate get an interview with somebody who actually knows, first hand, what went on with this AAA accreditation? What “deals” were made and by whom, why, and with what “strings” attached?

@Sean Pitman, I agree with the lack of transparency at LLU and virtually anywhere in our SDA system. The hiding behind closed doors is rampant, not only at LLU, but on the Conference level, Union, and even the GC. Try to ask anybody a really specific question. All you get is either nothing or another set of vague responses. Try it some time, and you will see what I mean.

Any insiders know WHY this happened? Was it part of a “deal” with AAA for accreditation?
