Academics

 

January Term class to Greece and Turkey

Huntington University is offering a January Term class to Greece and Turkey in early January 2009.  The two week class will visit the ancient remains of most of the cities that the apostle Paul evangelized during his missionary journeys:  Ephesus, Galatia, Colossae, Corinth and Athens.  Additionally, we will visit the cities addressed in the book of Revelation:  Pergamon, Sardis, Smyrna, Laodicea, Philadelphia and Ephesus.  Those interested should call Prof. Fairchild at Ext. 2035.

 

Final Exam Schedule  Students who have three or more final exams (at least two of which are comprehensive finals) on the same day may petition to take an exam at a different time.  Travel plans are NOT a basis for petitioning for a schedule change.  Make sure that your travel plans are based on when you will have completed your exams.  Contact the Dean’s office for a petition form.  The final exam schedule may be found on the Registrar’s page of the website.

 

Students Who Expect To Graduate In May:  Remember that you MUST attend the Commencement ceremony in order to graduate from Huntington.  (See catalog, p.48).  Do not plan trips, weddings, or other festivities which would keep you from sharing the graduation ceremony with your classmates.  Commencement will be on Saturday, May 17.

 


Saints Bible Institute

Located in San Lorenzo, Italy, Saints Bible Institute combines academic Biblical training with practical mission work. Students take courses in archeology, missions, communication, and Biblical studies while experiencing the challenge of church-planting in modern Italy. A representative from SBI will be on campus on Thursday, May 1st. Stop by his table during dining hours in the DC to learn more. You can also check out the website at www.saintsbibleinstitute.org or email Jon Stotts at s207981@huntington.edu.
