Do the board members have term limits?  

The LSU bylaws state “hold office until their successors are elected.”

Four new LSU board members

Getting closer to Spectrum magazine is a step in the wrong direction if the school wishes to cleanse itself of unBiblical liberalism.An Amazing Facts associate would be a much better board-member choice in the struggle for orthodoxy and Scriptual integrity.  

I don’t know of anyone at Amazing Facts that the Board would even consider. Why would the Board bring someone on who actually believes in God’s Truth and is willing to stand up for it?

I’ve taught at more than a handful of non-SDA colleges and universities and have never seen board minutes posted online or handed out to employees, much less the general public. For that matter, there are thousands of “boards” for various entities (corporations, public utilities, churches, etc.) scattered all across the big ol’ USA, and I’m pretty confident the majority of them maintain minutes internally. Is our country bursting at the seams with CIA-type strategists? Or is it just our dreaded, secrecy-shrouded university that we all love to hate?  

The Board meetings are supposed to be “open” to students and staff unless they are “Executive.” (Section 6.8 of LSU Bylaws)

Government grants? These are not an issue. Parochial schools of many flavors get these all the time, and there is no requirement whatsoever to teach evolutionism.  

All this talk about government grants, getting accreditation, and similar smokescreen issues are nothing more than excuses to avoid handling the actual issue. LSU will use ANYTHING to avoid addressing the problem, which is deeply rooted in the secular humanistic philosophies of those in charge of this institution.

Do you here this “problem” mentioned at other SDA colleges that teach creationism. Does PUC have a problem with accreditation? How about SWAU? Don’t they teach creationism there?

As I’ve been told by my 3 relatives who attend there, no Darwinian “evolution as fact’ is taught, and I’ve not heard of PUC having accreditation problems. In fact, they have been rated numerous times by U.S. News as being a great school!

The ANN Highlights LSU’s Dr. Lee Grismer – An Evolutionary Biologist

Faith: Prof Kent:How do you figure that this site keeps biology profs with integrity out of LSU? Any professor that is following the Bible, supporting creation, and the SDA church has nothing to hide and nothing to fear.When you say “quality” applicants, just how do you judge their credentials?As far as I am concerned, it is far more important that these professors have a firm grasp on the teachings of creation and the teachings of the Bible than any credentials the world can offer. If that had been the criteria used as a guideline for hiring, we wouldn’t be in this mess now. And that goes for all our SDA institutions.

I agree, Faith. However, the type of leadership (Guy,Geraty,and Wisbey)LSU has had over the past two decades shows why we have evolutionists teaching “evolution as fact” at LSU and those supporting any type of creationism being intimidated, both students, and I would suspect faculty as well.

Does the LSU Board even care about this deterioration in our biblical beliefs. Well, their inaction, ineptitude, and apathy in finding any solutions tell me they don’t, at least the majority who control the Board.

BTW, If you’re a beer or ale drinker, the best are the “darker” and more “robust” varieties, as these have more antioxidants and phytochemical.

Or, you could just eat some oatmeal, barley, or similar whole grain!


Blasphemy of a Different Kind

Shane&#032Hilde: @Ron Stone M.D.: I agree. LSU has not been a shining light for our church. That’s unfortunate. That might be the case for other schools as well.

I have much more knowledge of PUC, and it has as many or more problems as LSU, although these have been, so far, ignored by most. PUC thrives on its “high ratings” from U.S. News and World Report, etc. But, it would get much lower ratings if someone knowledgeable from an SDA rating agency actually did a thorough investigation of the school.


[6/17/11 UPDATE] Two administrators, one biology professor, and one board member resign

Adventist&#032kid: @Ron Stone M.D.:Continue to believe that if you want. Not a scientific sample to say the least, but I just asked roughly 80 high school graduates from this year whether they chose which school they were going to or if their parents did. I didn’t even get ten who said their parents limited their choices or prevented them from going to their first choice.

I’ll continue to believe what I actually see and hear, not some biased opinion from you.


[6/17/11 UPDATE] Two administrators, one biology professor, and one board member resign

David&#032Bee: @Ron Stone M.D.: Tenured professors have a formal protective process before they can be terminated. Both resigned possible from their tenured positions as well.

Do you know this or just a guess? I certainly hope they’re gone from LSU completely!
