As I’m off-site, I get my Seabury news in dribs and drabs; yesterday I got an email message reporting unexpectedly upbeat news. As it turns out, Seabury will indeed offer classes to continuing students during the 2008-09 academic year. The present plan entails offering courses in Anglican history, theology, polity, and liturgy; congregational leadership; and the practice of ministry.
Seabury will still, apparently, need to reduce the size of the faculty — but students who are currently enrolled may be able to complete much of their program without major disruption.
So, basically, all the things they couldn’t get at, say, Garett or one of the other schools in the area?
