hullaballoo
all this drama going on at Taylor is … drama. how is it that I know all about it? I don’t have ANY regular contact with Taylor. it’s such a drama for the school and the students, but I have to say that I agree with Liz. it’s just not that big of a deal.
when I was at Taylor, I took campus life with a grain of salt. I enjoyed my time there, but I was always careful not to take things too seriously. I always thought that Taylor took itself too seriously.
I really think so now. prayer walks? fasts? come ON. sure, there was immaturity. sure there was irresponsibility. but no one was hurt. the most expensive “vandalism” was the missing nativity pieces… has student development forgotten that bits of it go missing every year? it was just a series of pranks. students streaking (in the dark!) and messing with Campus Safety – rude, but not a “dark” something that requires “healing” and “restoration” like the university propaganda-man says:
“As dark as things might seem, there is a hope that the healing process can begin and that those who committed these acts will experience a restoration process, through discipline through love.”
lighten up, Taylor.
