News in Brief
Students are reminded that it is now an obligatory requirement that all mini-dissertations, dissertations and theses be subject to a language read prior to final submission. The fee involved is currently £2 per thousand words or part thereof.
Can all Study-leaders, Supervisors and Promoters please note that they are now required to provide a quarterly report to the Dean on the status of each student under their tutelage. Forms for this purpose may be obtained from the Registrar’s office.
It is a requirement of the University that students intending to submit for final examination must give three months notice prior to their proposed date of submission. Dates for students wishing to submit in November 2011 are 31 August 2011.
The doctoral thesis of Dr Daniel T Lioy entitled The Book of Revelation in Christological Focus, which was researched and written under the promotership of Dr Colin Warner, is published in the USA by Peter Lang.
Another doctoral student from the USA, James Delmont, has had a play workshopped at the university in Nebraska. It should be going into local production early next year under the working title Miriam of Nazareth.
Our dear friend and colleague, Dr Rick L Walston, President of the Columbia Theological Seminary, has recently had a book published by Xulon Press; Unravelling the Mystery of the Motivational Gifts. Another book at the publishers and due for release shortly is The Speaking in Tongues Controversy.
Details of both are available via http://www.columbiaseminary.edu/books/tongues.html
The Finance Officer, Revd Robert G Winston, has asked to publish his gratitude on behalf of the School to all those who have made voluntary contributions to the work. Without the kindness of benefactors and donors, we would not be able to keep our fees at such a competitive rate. We must point out, however, that in view of our recent successful application to be awarded charitable status, anyone who wishes to make a future donation to Greenwich School of Theology and is a taxpayer can increase their giving by 28% courtesy of the government Gift Aid scheme. Details are available on request.
Mrs. Tienie Buys has been appointed as the new Registrar of Greenwich School of Theology
