The Concordia ship's captain went too fast in shallow waters and drowned 32 passengers. He survived by taking the first boat to safety.
The Concordia today.
I learned an important lesson some years ago - "Live on the basics, save for the emergencies." I was giddy with the income from working at two schools at once, but all the schools were going online, so the game turned upside-down.
I could have given the LCMS universities advice, $37.52 for each advisory, leather notebook extra. - Use the online changeover to merge schools, because the local campus concept has become a dinosaur, too large, too expensive, and becoming extinct.
- Do not use the gym, athletic fields, and sports scholarships to lure students, only to empty their parents' pockets. Taint Notre Dame.
- Open Google maps and see how close other Lutheran colleges are. Two tiny colleges with big gyms nearby make no sense (Bethany ELS and Martin Luther WELS - about 35 miles).
- Stick with the reason for the school rather than collecting lots of departments and classes and teachers and costs. One Florida school offered a degree in deep water fishing.
- Study the Reformation, which changed education, based on classic studies and Lutheran doctrine - not Church Growth buffoonery.
- Fire all the extraneous synodical drones. Or retire them.
- Stop the Walther idolatry.
