FUTURE OF PROTESTANT(ISM)
Protestant theologian, Peter Leithart, wrote this essay http://www.firstthings.com/web-exclusives/2013/11/the-end-of-protestantism which then spawned a whole conference at Biola.

HONORARY DEGREES
Conferring honorary doctorates is a regular practice at colleges and universities. They are given for outstanding accomplishment in one’s field. It is not a bad tradition, but I wonder how many businessmen get them because the respective school is hoping he or she will give plenty of money. Money can buy you lots of things, including a degree, but it can’t buy you an education. That takes money and effort!
