I love my school
My campus is today, a ghost town. A large majority of the faculty are ordained clergy, and almost all of them are currently on the steps of San Francisco's City Hall, performing marriages for same sex couples. Many of the students, faculty and staff have gone to city hall with their partners to have the city of SF recongize by law the vows of love they swore to each other and to their God(s) long ago.

I was talking to the president of the school this morning who told me he had granted carte blanche to any staff or faculty member who needed to miss work, or any student who needed to miss class today so they could participate in this historic event. We're at this school to learn how to use faith to transform the world. Today, my school is almost empty, and the world is being transformed. - Original entry
