Volume 5 Number 3
by Kent Annan
Princeton Seminary gives a lot to students like Tu Truong (Vietnam), Galina Draganova (Bulgaria), Kesari Godfrey (India), and many others from around the world who are on campus now and who have attended over the years. International students benefit from a quality education, access to great resources and faculty, a prestigious degree, and relationships meaningful to their hearts and their professions.
Why does Princeton invest teaching time, more than $500,000 in annual scholarship aid, and significant administrative resources to educate students from countries around the world? President Gillespie, when he welcomed the twenty-six international students from seventeen countries in this year's student body (which did not include Ph.D. students), got to the heart of it: "I hope that when you return home, you will go back as better ministers of Jesus Christ."
"It's the parable of the five talents," adds John O'Brien-Prager, director of professional studies, who oversees Immigration and Naturalization Service matters for foreign national students. "We need to share our staff, faculty, facilities, and financial resources because God has given this bounty to us."
But the exchange is not one way. It is also hoped that American students will better understand the world and the church because foreign national students are on campus. Referring to a world map dotted with various colored thumbtacks indicating from what states and countries PTS students hail, Victor Aloyo, director of vocations, puts into words what many have experienced at Princeton Seminary over the years: "The presence of international students broadens the learning perspective for all the students. It deepens the flavor here—culturally, theologically, spiritually."
Princeton has long benefited from the presence of international students. A Scottish student came to Princeton in 1913, graduated in 1915, went on to study in Spain, teach in Peru, and then, from 1936-1959, John Mackay served as president of Princeton Seminary. Toyohiko Kagawa, a Japanese student who went on to be an internationally known evangelist and social worker in Japan, graduated from PTS the same year as Mackay. (Japanese students were the largest percentage of foreign nationals at PTS during the early twentieth century.)
President Gillespie fondly recalls his own long friendship with fellow Class of 1954 graduate Paul Verghese (later Paulos Mar Gregorios). Verghese, an Indian who died in 1996, went on to become an influential church leader and Metropolitan of Delhi in the Orthodox Syrian Church of the East.
Tu Truong, an M.Div. junior, comes from Danang, Vietnam, which is located in the narrow center of the country. His family (two brothers and six sisters—"Vietnamese don't care about money, they care about children, and if you have many children, you are rich") still lives there, where his father is a minister. In 1990 Truong moved to Saigon (Ho Chi Min City) to work for a Thai company that manufactured paint. Studying theology in the USA was his desire, but the Vietnamese government wouldn't give him leave for that purpose. Instead he moved to California to study for an M.B.A., which he earned from Yuin University, a Korean university in Compton, California, while simultaneously earning an M.A. at Union College of California, a Vietnamese Bible school. Though in California for three years, landing in Princeton was for him really arriving in America. "Everything in Princeton looks interesting," he says. "In California I was in a Vietnamese community: we talked Vietnamese, ate Vietnamese food."
Truong is interested in learning more about American culture and making American friends, but another goal drives him. "Of course, my purpose here is not to get a degree. It is to learn as much as I can. I don't know if I will be a pastor when I go back. I would like to be a Bible teacher. There is a lack of pastors there, so I could help to train them."
The Vietnamese government still exerts considerable control over the religious lives of its people. Truong estimates that there are 700,000 church members and 350 pastors in the country. No official Bible school or seminary exists, though there are some underground Bible courses taught. Part of his dream is that someday soon the government will allow the Christians to open a Bible school. If so, Truong wants to teach there.
"To be a pastor or teacher in Vietnam is to sacrifice a lot. If a husband is a pastor, his wife cannot work outside the home and must depend on the husband. My father, a pastor, earns $35 a month. A college graduate in his first year after school could probably earn $150 a month. Since I have an M.B.A. from America, I could go back and earn $500 a month. But when you decide to be a servant of God, you don't worry about money."
American students have grown up surrounded by American images of success: expensive cars, designer clothes, status, fame. Truong's living, eating, and studying in the Seminary community is a valuable wake-up call to those entranced by the American dream. Not that this dream isn't alluring to him as well. But on considering the possibility of staying in the USA, he asks himself, "Would I be staying to serve God or to live here? I love my people. I saw the poverty; I saw the lack of education. So if I can help, I will do it. It is my dream to go back, because they are my people and they need me."
Galina Draganova, M.Div. junior, moved from Silistra, Bulgaria, to Rhode Island four years ago, where she earned a B.A. in theology from the Zion Bible Institute. She came to America because there were no Bible schools in Bulgaria. She came with a memory of Christianity's struggle under communism and its aftermath. Already a licensed Church of God minister who had pastored a congregation for a year in Bulgaria, she wanted ministerial training.
From the moment she became a Christian at Girlage thirteen, a year before the wall came tumbling down, Draganova never doubted that she wanted to go into ministry, "though my father wanted me to be a lawyer," she says.
She considers seminary vital preparation for pursuit of her ambitious goals on return to Bulgaria: translate the Bible into Bulgarian, start a seminary in her homeland, and set up theological courses for Bulgarian laity. To those ends, she is glad to attend Princeton and thinks it is preparing her well, though because of its reputation, she says, "I never thought Princeton would accept me."
Draganova has done well in her classes thus far. She finds the language difficult, though she speaks English well and with an attention to grammatical correctness that often eludes native speakers.
When asked about other difficulties, she says warily that sometimes the morals are different. That students would go out for a late night beer seemed questionable to her—though, with some effort it seemed, she refrained from pronouncing judgment. It might be a helpful exercise to imagine oneself, one's church, seen through the eyes of someone who lived under persecution for his or her faith. In a place where religious freedom and even Christ are sometimes taken for granted, it is a welcome reminder to have someone on campus who lived behind a curtain that, among other things, sought to keep Jesus out. Though Draganova is not all seriousness. She dresses sharply, likes shopping malls, and is quick to smile with her friends.
The first time Kesari Godfrey, Th.M., used a knife and fork was when he arrived in Princeton. So what does he miss about India other than the food and the freedom to eat with his hand in the cafeteria? "I miss the whole context," he says in his articulate, beautifully accented, sing-song English. "My church [the Church of South India]. My friends. I miss being home. I want to go back soon, but that doesn't mean I don't like it here."
Godfrey's father earned an S.T.M. at Drew University and recently retired from his position as the Church of South India bishop of the Kanyakumari diocese in Tamil Nadu. Godfrey is following his fathers footsteps to America, but plans, on his return to India, to be a lecturer at Truelock Theological Seminary.
When he considers his classes at Princeton, the obvious difference in context comes quickly to mind. "Liberation theology is more relevant in my place," he says. "So are issues of social justice and interreligious harmony." One wonders whether he is also thinking, but is too polite to say, that liberation theology and social justice might be more important at Princeton were students more aware of India's billion people, many of whom live in a context of dire poverty.On campus and in American culture in general, diversity and inclusion are popular topics. Godfrey, however, approaches the subject differently than a Christian American student would. "In my country, there are only 2.5% Christians," he says. But in Princeton he has found a Dutchman, Wentzel van Huyssteen, professor of theology and science, who is helping him think more thoroughly about the subject. "I like van Huyssteen because he is open to my context, to hearing from me. How do we deal with differences in religion? Plurality is a reality, whether we accept it or not. He tries to make us respect that." On a less academic subject, Godfrey is also thankful to van Huyssteen for showing him a way to phone home cheaply, "something you don't expect a professor to do!"
Before coming to Princeton, Godfrey had never flown in a plane. As he looked down he thought, "The world is very tiny. And God is very big. What I thought of was the greatness and goodness of God, the richness and diversity."
He doesn't want it to be a one-way trip. Not only does he want to return to India, he also thinks Americans should hop on a plane and look down on the earth on their way to India. He hopes they can learn as much from Indians as he has from Americans. "God's greatness will be learned. Also, humility. It will impact our theology," he says.
When international student applications arrive, they go to Debbie Watson, international student enrollment specialist in the Office of Vocations, who is universally praised among the foreign national students. That begins a process that takes anywhere from a year to three. The delays? "Things get lost," says Watson. "Sometimes people don't want to put things like letters of endorsement in writing because it might be used against them [in a country hostile to Christianity]. Also, for example in Nigeria, it can sometimes take three or four months just to get an appointment with an embassy officer."
Once the application file is complete—with financial data, essays, letters of recommendation, academic records—it is given to a subcommittee that examines international applications and recommends to the general admissions committee whether each student should be admitted. Another committee decides on scholarships. In March, a decision is made and students are notified. From that point, John O'Brien-Prager and his assistant, Mary Munn, work with the students to get them into the country.
The majority of international students discover Princeton through PTS alumni/ae (including both internationals who returned to their countries and missionaries) or through Presbyterian connections. The Seminary does not advertise
outside North America. Aloyo says he is happy with the current mix of students, though he would like to see more from Central and South America. He is also pleased to see a notable shift in the Seminary's relationship with other countries. "Our commitment to the larger church has continued to increase over time," he says. "PTS always had missionaries going out, and now we have people from those countries to which we sent missionaries coming here for theological education."
She recently received an application from the brutalized country of Sierra Leone that had the following note attached: "If you accept me, please send clothes for me to travel in." Watson says, "He had a wife and four kids and couldn't even afford clothes good enough to travel in." Applicants who are not on full scholarship are often aided by their home churches or institutions.
Students who make it over the many hurdles and arrive in Princeton begin a two-week orientation program. (It is federally mandated that schools provide orientation for foreign national students.) Students are met at the airport by a PTS student, for which they are always very grateful. A warm welcome and a "care" basket (filled with nutrition bars, bottled water, juice, a local map, a campus guide, candy, a coffee mug, a "Welcome to the USA" book, a list of emergency contacts, and a phone card) greet them.
The next two weeks of the program have two aims: to prepare them for the academic work of their degree program, primarily the writing aspect, and to orient them to the American way of life.
Students are expected to arrive with language proficiency, but academic expectations and grammar are reviewed. Many have never before followed the standard American style of presenting a thesis statement at the beginning of a paper and then following through to prove it. "Also, the definite article in English, especially for Asians, seems a bit difficult," says Raewynne Whiteley, herself an Australian Ph.D. candidate, who coordinated the writing aspect of the orientation. "We try to pick up their grammar problems during orientation so we can let them know what to watch for. The reward comes later, as when one international student told me, 'I got my paper back and the professor said it was the best-written and best-argued in the class!' A lot of the writing orientation just has to do with giving them confidence."
If not for orientation," says Godfrey, "it would have taken a long time, but this made transition smooth…for both life and academics." All the students looked back on the orientation with gratitude for its help in beginning a year of rigorous study.
In addition to the orientation, there are efforts to continue supporting students throughout the year. The International Friends' Group and the International Students' Association (ISA) link international and American students. Clothes are donated to the International Clothing Shop that are free for foreign national students and their children. The Writing Center helps foreign and American students with academic papers. Rides to WalMart, proofreading papers, and other help is often given informally by American students. The ISA sponsors several World Churches in Conversation lectures each year, sometimes featuring international students, that raise the level of dialogue on campus. It also sets up several day-trips during each academic year; the first excursion this year was to New York City, where, among other things, students toured the United Nations headquarters.
Jon Keune, an American M.Div. middler who is president of the ISA and who studied for fifteen months in India, is involved for several reasons. "People not in the dominant group can use someone reaching out to them, and I say this in a nonjudgmental way because this is what I've appreciated. What I try to do is to pass on what others have done for me. For example, several Indians and a Korean Buddhist monk really reached out to me while I was in India and helped me feel more comfortable." He also relishes cultural and theological conversations with colleagues who have different thoughts and experiences than his own. Finally, he says, "I love traveling, but I hate being a tourist. Now I have invitations to visit people all over the world!"
Toward the end of an international student's degree program, the allure of staying is often great. Some stay—because they find good and needed ministries here to immigrant populations. "But as part of one, worldwide body of Christ," says O'Brien-Prager, "Princeton does not want to be a theological drain on other countries. We want to be part of a true exchange program." Most students do return to their native lands, many to become pastors and leaders of national churches.
The list of leadership positions that alumni/ae hold in churches around the world is impressive. To name a few: Abuna Paulos is patriarch of the Ethiopian Orthodox Church. Patricio Proaño is founder and president of the Universidad Cristiana Latino-Americana in Ecuador. Anna May Sa Pa is principal of the Myanmar Institute of Theology. Setri Nyomi, a Ghanaian, is general secretary of the World Alliance of Reformed Churches. Hannibal Cabral is a professor and director of an indigenous music project at Karnataka Theological College in Southwest India. Sang Chang is president of Ewha Woman's University in Korea, one of the largest women's universities in the world. Reinhelde Ruprecht is head of the Vandenhoeck & Ruprecht publishing company in Germany.
"The benefits to you at the outset are hidden," says Brad Gustafson, an M.Div. senior who helped with the international orientation program. "You seem like the one who gives; they seem like the recipients. But the reciprocity of the giving becomes almost intoxicating. You come thinking you're the giver, but then, 'Wow, how could I have gone on without what I've received?' The fruit of the encounter comes as a surprise. Now I can't imagine my PTS education without my conversations with internationals. It would have been much the poorer." z

Consider this:
But Jacob stayed behind by himself, and a man wrestled with him until daybreak. When the man saw that he couldn't get the best of Jacob as they wrestled, he deliberately threw Jacob's hip out of joint.
The man said, "Let me go; it's daybreak."
Jacob said, "I'm not letting you go 'til you bless me."
The man said, "What's your name?"
He answered, "Jacob."
The man said, "But no longer. Your name is no longer Jacob. From now on it's Israel (God-Wrestler); you've wrestled with God and you've come through."
Jacob asked, "And what's your name?"
The man said, "Why do you want to know my name?" And then, right then and there, he blessed him.
Jacob named the place Peniel (God's Face) because, he said, "I saw God face-to-face and lived to tell the story!"
Genesis 32:24-30 (The Message)
We are a global movement of destiny, united in purpose and mission, yet diverse in culture, language, geography, economy, and heritage. It is through the power of Christ and His Spirit that we can celebrate our unity in the midst of such diversity. In a world of ethnic and national divide, this exquisite expression of unity in Jesus is the most powerful expression of the reality of the gospel in the midst of God's people.

Ice Palace construction pushed back to next week
Wilmington looks to North Elba for skatepark equipment
LAKE PLACID – The town of North Elba might end up giving its unused skateboard park equipment to another local community – Wilmington.
Equipment at the skatepark behind the Community Center in Wilmington was "seriously damaged" by a severe wind storm on Jan. 30. In a letter to the North Elba Town Council, Wilmington Supervisor Randy Preston wrote that the equipment was only covered by liability insurance, so the town can't get reimbursed for it.
"There has been several thousand dollars in damage," Preston wrote. "We are asking that if, for any reason, Saranac Lake does not take your equipment, Wilmington will gladly take it."
The North Elba board declared the town's skatepark equipment, located in a fenced in area behind the Shipman Youth Center, as surplus in October 2012 after attempts to find a new location for it in Lake Placid were unsuccessful. Insurance and supervision prevented kids from being able to use the park on a regular basis.
The town board originally planned to donate the equipment to the Saranac Lake SkatePark Committee, which is still looking for a location for a skateboard park of its own. Councilman Bob Miller said the committee is still in talks with the Saranac Lake village Board of Trustees about a location, so the board decided to wait until its March 12 meeting to decide what to do with its equipment.
"They waited for well over a year for us to make a decision, so we can wait 30 days for them," town Supervisor Roby Politi said. "However, if Wilmington can use it and if Saranac Lake can't get an agreement on it, let's move it. It's in the best interest of the kids."
Rich Shapiro of the Saranac Lake SkatePark Committee told the Enterprise that since North Elba offered the equipment last fall, the Saranac Lake village board has had to hold off on accepting it.
"The plan in September was to install the equipment at the existing skateboard park site behind the old Village Hall, by the Police Station," Shapiro wrote in an email. "Since then, the Village has informed us that they don't think they want it there.
"We have been working with them to define an alternative site and they have narrowed it down to two sites: Ampersand Park (at the corner of Broadway and Ampersand Avenue) and the Midtown Parking Lot next to the (Adirondack Daily Enterprise) building."
North Elba's equipment is made of metal, and one of the reasons the town board had a difficult time finding an alternative location for it is because it's noisy. Shapiro said the same issue is a factor for both the village parking lot and the Ampersand site.
"In these two locations the metal ramps would create excessive noise for the proximity of the neighbors," he said. "If they decide to use the original site by the old village offices, then we will graciously accept the generous offer from North Elba," he said. "If they decide one of the other two spots will be the final location, then the village will regrettably have to forego this generous offer."
Shapiro said the committee is now waiting for the village board to make a decision. He said he hopes the decision will be made by mid-March, allowing the committee to potentially open a skatepark in Saranac Lake by the fall.

Looking Ahead: The Creative Forces Shaping 2013
In the early 1990s, Tamzin Greenhill—a Londoner then in her late teens—dreamed of becoming a decorator. But that was before the lanky blond stepped in front of the cameras. Soon, she was a successful model—one of a pack of wispy young beauties, including Kate Moss, that the press dubbed waifs. "I initially started modeling so I could earn enough money to pay for interior design school," says Greenhill, who jokingly adds: "That went out the window when I started bringing home the big bucks."
She got caught up in the fast life--the fashion runway shows, Mario Testino and Nick Knight photo shoots, and magazine covers. At 24, Greenhill impulsively opened a lingerie boutique in London called Femme Fatale, only to later shut it down. "At that age, I wasn't really capable of the day-to-day responsibility of running a business," she admits. "For me, the most fun part of having a store was getting to design the shop."

Greenhill went on to found her own interior design firm in London, where she began to attract such high-powered clients as banking heir Nat Rothschild, Lord Edward Spencer-Churchill, and media mogul Vivi Nevo. She met her future husband, New York investment banker John Park, at a London nightclub. After two years of long-distance dating, the couple became engaged and Greenhill joined Park in New York.

In discussing this set, trying to enumerate the ultra-rarities borders on the pointless, as not only are there at least a dozen prohibitively rare and expensive coins, but at least three dozen more that would require years of searching even to locate. Suffice it to say, that the 1921 Zerbe Morgan Proof (a low five-figure coin in higher grade) doesn't even made the top 100 rarities in this set. So having scared off all but the most ambitious, know that even completing half of this set will likely rank you in the top 5 all-time finest sets. Even the all time finest set is still missing 91 of the 687 coins. That fact hasn't discouraged nearly 50 of you so far though, as this set remains one of the more popular non-modern sets on the Registry.
Notes: This set has bonuses. Please see the Set Composition for a listing.

Students issued a reality check
By BARBARA BEHRENDT
Published April 23, 2007
BROOKSVILLE - As Amrita Bedi stood before the class, chalking in the details of a simple math problem on the blackboard, two dozen students were beginning to grasp the stark financial reality.
Bedi and her teaching partner, Anesta Boice, were explaining a simple personal budget based on the full-time salary of a dishwasher.
After filling in the costs of a cheap apartment, utilities and a car payment, only about $125 a month remained. Add car insurance and gas, and soon the figure on the board was zero.
"Hey," one concerned student said, "you gotta eat."
Boice shook her head. There was no money for food. There was no money for clothes or new CDs or entertainment.
"Here's the point," she told the students. "As a high school dropout living on your own making $7 an hour, it is not enough to even meet necessities."
That was an important lesson for the room full of students, many of whom had earlier reported that their favorite classes were physical education and lunch.
"Do you see the point here, guys, that the more education you have, the more opportunities you're going to have?" Boice said.
The lights were coming on in the faces of Parrott Middle School teacher Johnny Roberts' two dozen eighth-grade history students.
Boice smiled.
"They're getting it," she said.
For Boice, a trust officer with Capital City Trust Co., and two dozen other local business people who took over eighth-grade classrooms at the school for a half-day Tuesday, seeing the students understand the lesson was payment for their services.
The volunteers are part of a new program called Diploma-See, a joint effort of the Greater Hernando County Chamber of Commerce and Junior Achievement. Last week's program, largely sponsored by SunTrust Bank, was the debut for the project in the Hernando schools.
Next fall, organizers hope to have it up and running in other eighth-grade classrooms around the county.
The program is focused on keeping students in school to earn their diplomas and to plan for their further education.
"They have to be thinking about what their options are after high school," said Michelle Torigian, Junior Achievement's manager for Hernando and Pasco counties.
The economic side of equation is how the Diploma-See program gets the attention of the students, and the budgeting activity is key.
"The students have to ask, 'Am I going to be able to own my own house or rent my own apartment?' and it really makes them think about what they want," Torigian said. "Not on every salary can people have their sports cars."
During the class, students take an interest inventory to find out what kind of careers could be the right fit. They learn how much extra schooling they will need to achieve their career goals. They build charts showing how much more money people make the longer they stay in school.
The budgeting activity is the eye-opener, especially for any student thinking about dropping out.
"It's not as easy as they think it's going to be," Boice said. Telling students that their $7-an-hour job will earn them $280 a week makes some students feel wealthy. "They're used to getting $20 from their grandma for their birthday," she said.
But add up monthly expenses, and soon the money is gone.
"They've never had to deal with those issues before," she said. "This brings it down to brass tacks."
Many students haven't given serious thought to how much they will need to earn to have the luxuries they want for their adult lives, Torigian said.
"It really does open their eyes to other career opportunities," she said.
Boice, who is also co-chairwoman of the local Junior Achievement board, said the program engages students in hands-on activities, teaching them something whether they want to learn it or not.
At this age, students are already tuning out parents, and some are even "immune" to their teachers' good advice, she said.
"A child is going to listen more to someone who they do not know who is a volunteer giving their time," Boice said. "I feel like we're doing a good thing."

Comprehensive DescriptionRead full entry
BiologyLives in rocky areas and vegetated margins of lakes and streams (Ref. 5259), primarily in lakes preferring still or gently flowing waters (Ref. 51290, 44894). Adults prefer the shelter provided by complex habitats such as rocky lake shores and also in-lake macrophytes beds and marsh habitats (Ref. 51290). Juveniles occur in the water column until 4-5 months of age (40 mm in length) and then move inshore seeking shelter and larger prey items (Ref. 51290). Shoaling in open water when young (Ref. 44894). Feeds on insects, insect larvae and crustaceans (Ref. 5259, 44894) and mollusks with cannibalism of eggs and juvenile fish being common (Ref. 51290, 44894). Breeds in early spring among rocks in the shallows (Ref. 44894). Most fish live for 3-4 years with some reaching over 6 years of age (Ref. 51290).

Comments: These are by far the worst shoes ever. I was thinking they may be a little more comfortable than the
T22s (which are incredible) and I liked the new look, but these are stiff, hot, virtually impossible to break in and destroyed my
feet. I'm going back to the T22. The only other shoes I enjoyed (which apparently are not made anymore) are the Adidas
Barricade 2.
From: Troy, 12/13
Comments: I received this shoe two days ago after carefully reviewing the comments posted by others who had
purchased this shoe. Several comments blasted the shoe for being uncomfortable and too tight, snug, hefty and the like. They
were "spot on." These shoes have a tremendous design flaws. Out-of-the-box, these shoes totally "destroyed" my feet. I laced
them up and played for less than 5 minutes and found that I couldn't take the "pain" inflicted by the "unnatural design" of the
shoe. It fits "horribly." However, my hitting partner was in love with them. Yet, I couldn't endure the pain for longer than 5 minutes
before taking them off my feet. Adjustment: I barely tied them so I'd feel no pressure anywhere around my feet. It works and
works well. Fortunately, these shoes are soo cushioned that they are form fitting without tightening them. I am a 5.5 player.
From: Anon, 7/13
Comments: I'm a long-time user of prince shoes (over 8 years) and after reading the reviews here I was worried but
decided to take the plunge anyway with the deep discount. My favorite shoe is the T10. Anyway, I have no idea what everyone
here is talking about, sure the shoes are stiffer but otherwise they were totally fine, I haven't experienced any discomfort at all,
even after 3 hour playing sessions. I think the key might be to lace them up a little looser than you usually might, I normally lace
up my T10s to be much more form-fitting but after reading the horror stories here I decided a looser fit would be a safer move.
So far its been great.
From: Richard, 7/13
Comments: I am a Prince product fan. I have Prince shirts, Power Pro/Rebel racquets, 2 Tennis Tour Bags, XX
Lightening string, dampeners and shoes. My T24 is the most ill fitting shoe I have ever purchased. I bought the T14 on the same
order. Without reservation, I would buy the T14 at their current sale price. But, the T24 front support straps hurt my feet right out
of the box. The pain is unbearable and I could not get out of the front door without feeling tourtured. The plastic around the toes
does not bend well when I walk. A break in period should not involve injury. I cannot recommend these.
From: Bowsz, 7/13
Comments: I can barely walk after playing with these shoes. The forward strap on the outer part of the shoe is too
tight and it hurts my feet to the point that I can't play more than 1 set without serious pain. I bought these shoes and so they sat
in the box for 3 months until my Barricades were worn and now I'm really sorry I didn't try them on sooner. What a let down from
Prince. The T24 are nothing like the T22's. Absolutely and without a doubt the worst shoe for tennis.
From: Steven, 5/13
Comments: These are stiff -- if you try to bend them, it is impossible; but, they are awesome on the court when
you play in them. They seem more "true" to the game of tennis compared to some of the hybrid shoes commonly found today.
Plus, they have a good warranty and appear rugged.
From: Austin, 5/13
Comments: I bought these shoes off the Tennis Warehouse return rack. These t24's are very comfortable on my
feet, and they appear well made. Maybe whoever owned them before worked out the stiffness everyone else is talking about.
From: Robert, 4/13
Comments: Horrible shoes, usually Prince makes a good value shoe. I had no hesitation about buying the upgrade
to the T22. Right out of the box, I had a problem one was white and the other had a noticeable gray tinge to the entire top of the
show. Since I'm more into tennis than fashion I played with them. But after trying to break them in for two months, they're done.
Too much pain due to the straps. Rather heavy and just not worth the money I paid for them.
From: Dave, 4/13
Comments: These shoes are too tight in the toe box and got very painful to wear after 15 minutes. I even got 1/2
size larger than I normally do. Badly constructed. And I would even say defective. I returned both pairs and will not try Prince
shoes until they improve there quality.
From: Joe, 4/13
Comments: These shoes are horrible and stiff. The plastic lateral supports cut into my toes to the point where they
are bleeding. They are also heavy and feel like I'm wearing combat boots.
From: Bob, 4/13
Comments: I've been playing with these shoes for about a week. I like them to a degree, they are starting to break
in. I think once they break in they will play a lot better. The shoe is kind of heavy but there is a lot of support. These shoes are
super comfy though, once they begin to stretch out. When I first slipped them on they crushed my toes vertically but they have
loosened up since then. Overall, good shoes for the money, plus they have a guarantee on them.
From: Tom, /13
Comments: Look at everyone complaining on stiffness and comfort, most are basing their opinions on the shoe
after 3 or 4 times of wearing it. Most shoes take time to break in and then after the break in period (which is no longer than a
month of playing time) these shoes do the job with solid durability and a sleek look.
From: Andrew, 3/13
Comments: I discovered the T22 two years ago and it was a lifesaver. It resolved chronic problems with my sore
feet. I "upgraded" to the T24 when it came on the market and it was a terrible decision, the new model has caused me significant
problems. I thought I just a had a "lemon" pair until I read these comments and found many others have experienced the same
problems. Prince needs to scrap the T24. I am a 4.0 player who spends 10+ hours per week on the court. Do not buy this shoe.
From: Jerry, 3/13
Comments: This shoe requires a long break-in time. I experienced pain in the two straps on each side. But, the
other parts of the shoe are comfortable. I have always worn adidas and decided to give Prince a try. It was a big letdown after
being so excited. Parts of the shoe weren't as durable as I thought. I will probably go for the Rebel 2 after this.
From: Aaron, 2/13
Comments: It took a full summer with expanded shoe trees to strech them to the point where I could wear them.
They are clearly no match for the T22 shoe. I have worn Prince shoes for many years. The T24 shoes should be discontinue from
the Prince line, these shoes are at best unacceptable. Will go back to the T22 shoes once these are worn.
From: Ken, 2/13
Comments: These shoes are so stiff. It's a lot stiffer thant T22 and T10. I play 9 hours per week and it's hurting my
upper part of my right foot. I've had these shoes almost 3 months. I would highly recommend to stay away from it.
From: Fong, 2/13
Comments: These shoes were definitely stiffer than the T22's. The durability was on par with T22 and many other
lines of shoes, as I got roughly 4 months out of them hitting 4-5 times per week on hard courts. Near the end of their life span, I
rolled my ankle. These are the only shoes I have ever rolled an ankle in.
From: Matt, 1/13
Comments: I teach and play at about a 4.0-4.5 level. I agree with everybody saying that the shoes are stiff. There
is no flexibility at the ball of the foot, so if you start running suddenly you will automatically pull an Achilles heel. The T22 curved
up like a runner's shoe. There is not much heel support to begin with, so it's almost like wearing a sandal. A really stiff, heavy
one. This issue is basically for someone who runs on their heels and has a thin foot with really wide heels.
From: Yusef, 1/13
Comments: I am a teaching professional endorsed by Prince. I have been loyal to the T22 since its inception. I was
excited about the supposed upgrade to the new model. This is without question the worst shoe I have ever worn on court. After a
day of teaching (not playing, basically just wearing), both of my feet were sore on the sides due to the stiff, narrow death-grip
provided by those ridiculous strap-like pieces. I thought maybe they just needed a break-in period. Nope! It only got worse.
Towing the company line, I gave them nearly two weeks before the pain was just too bothersome. Near the end of these two
weeks, I peeled back the straps from their glued base as far as they would go. This helped minimally, but the damage had been
done to my feet. I am currently in foot rehab with my first pair of Nikes since my old Oscillates (memories!). I am in violation of
contract, and couldn't be happier. The T24 is not going to help Prince out of the mess it's in. Do not waste your time on this
From: Anon, 11/12
Comments: These are painful to wear. I compared them to my T22 which I love and found the soles to be obviously
more narrow. This shoe actually hurts to wear.
From: George, 11/12
Comments: These are cut too narrow in the box. They felt ok when I first put them on, but a sore spot develops on
top of the toes one in from the small toe. Two consecutive days it left a blister. The only solution is a bandaid on my toes for
padding, and thin socks. These will wind up being expensive shoes for riding on the lawn mower for the next ten years.
From: Robert, 11/12
Comments: It's a shame for Prince to produce these shoes after the famous T22 models. They don't feel as good as
the old ones.
From: Leo, 11/12
Comments: I've always worn the Prince T22, but recently decided to try the T24. For me, there is no comparison.
The T24 was stiff, it did not breath and my feet and knees were sore after playing each time. I'm definitely going back to the T22.
From: Brian, 10/12
Comments: These shoes broke down in about six months (playing doubles about twice each week). The sole tread
wore off first, and then a hole developed in the toe area. This is a fairly snug, rigid shoe. I would not recommend these based on
From: Chris, 10/12
Comments: If you want a shoe with higher arch support, good heel-to-toe cushioning and durability--this fit's the
bill. I recently tried several KSwiss, Asics and New Balance shoes and none of them offered this level of comfort/support.
From: Jim, 6/12
Comments: Wow, these things kill your feet, and although these shoes are very durable (its got a six month
guarantee), I found myself unable to move after only an hour of playing all because of foot pains. Also these things are heavy, I
keep thinking of these things like boots, because that's what they feel like on the court.
From: Jack, 6/12
Comments: I made the mistake of choosing this over the T14 and ended up with pain on both sides of
my feet. The straps on the side were so stiff that I couldn't run in it. In the end, I had to cut off the first strap on both
sides in order to have a small measure of comfort. Nothing like the T22, which has to be the best shoe Prince has come
up with.
From: Collin, 5/12
Comments: I am disappointed. I've been wearing the T22 for years now, and decided to try the T24s.
These are very stiff, even after 10 matches. These seem to have less room in the toe than the T22s, judging by the pain
on the outside of my feet, which are narrow. They also have an odd, wet-leather smell to them. This was the case
before I started wearing them and when they're dry. After a match they're unbearable, I need to place them in my car
trunk to survive the drive home.
From: Mike, 5/12
Comments: I've had similar experiences as Brian and Rich in going from the T22 to the T24 and now
deciding to go back to the T22. The T22's feel great right out of the box but the T24's felt tight and hurt during play
for about 2 weeks. After 6 weeks I can feel the early warnings signs of plantar fasciitis. This weekend I wore an old pair
of T22's and my feet felt much better than they have in a while. I'm switching back.
From: Brad, 5/12
Comments: I switched from T22 to this T24. The shoe felt more stiff than the T22. Also, for some
reason, I experienced foot cramps wearing this shoe. I was able to continue to play, but the issue occurred only when
wearing these shoes -- I do not know why. Also, went through the sole in 10 weeks -- very quick. Generally, takes 4 -
5 months. I play 4 - 5 times per week, so very active. However, even at this level of play, my last T22 and a pair of
ASICS Gel Resolution took 5 months to go through the sole. Thank goodness for the 6 month replacement!I am going
back to the T22.
From: Rich, 4/12
Comments: I bought these shoes because they are reported to be well cushioned. With tennis causing
some lower back pain, I need a well cushioned shoes. These shoes did not disappoint. Excellent cushioning, no pain in
my lower back like before. The support you get in moving any direction is excellent. The shoe wraps around your foot
rather than you fitting into the shoe. Not a great street shoe, but made for the court for sure. If they last well, I will
definitely buy them for next pair. They are heavier than most, but you don't really notice that. Because the support and
cushioning is so good, I feel like I can go all out in chasing balls without causing next day problems with m lower back.
What a relief!
From: Steve, 4/12
Comments: I appreciate this shoe being a little stiffer than the T22's, but it makes the balls of my feet
ache after a match. I never felt that with the T22's. This shoe definitely requires break-in time and after 4 or 5 matches
now, I'm headed back to the T22's.
From: Brian, 4/12
Comments: Great shoe. I have tried many brands and the prince seem to be the best fit. Nice support,
From: David, 3/12
Comments: Jury is still out. Definitely not in the "no break-in required" class. Or maybe it's
just much stiffer than past Prince shoes. After a disastrous switch to the NB 1187s (originally
advertised with a 12mo warranty, sole wore through in less than 2 months) from T22s, I
thought I'd give the latest T24s a try. Wear seems to be comparable to the T22s (which I
normally get 6.01 months of service playing 3-4x/week on hard courts). Very stable (see
stiffness). It seems like there is a little less room in the toe box than the T22s, just about
perfect for my almost-wide feet. Support is pretty good - haven't yet contemplated slipping in
an aftermarket sole insert. Slightly disappointed that it hasn't improved my backhand, but
right now I'm thinking these are my shoes for the near future.
From: Greg, 2/12
Comments: Great shoe. I am very picky when it comes to tenns sneaker, this is my second pair of prince
sneakers, previously had the t22s for about 10 months. Excellent on the clay . Just got the t24s, love them.

There are taildraggers, and then there's the Maule. The Maule family has been building sturdy tailwheel airplanes known for their short takeoff and landing (STOL) capability from the factory in Moultree, Georgia, since the 1950s. This one provides side-by-side seating, somewhat unusual for a taildragger but a definite selling point. Alton Marsh, who's flown more than a few Maules in his career, describes the characteristics of the Maule M-4 shown here in the article, "Back to the Future," which originally appeared in the March 2005 AOPA Pilot magazine. ( http://www.aopa.org/pilot/features/2005/feat0503.html ) —-Jill W. Tallman

Official *What did you get in the mail today?* Thread!!!
Nothing. Sigh.
Not sure if it's because I actually have no mail today, or if it's because the weather is so miserable no one wants to deliver it to me. Either way, sad face.
I haven't gotten mail since last Friday because I'm away from home. This thread drives me crazy but I look at it to live vicariously through everyone else until I get to go back on Sunday. The worst part is on Monday I got an email saying there's a package in the apartment office for me and I have NO idea what it is, but I hope it's tea.
I got my verdant tea of the month trial, but instead of 3 different teas, all three little packets say they are Golden Buds Shu :(
Oh no! I'm sure Verdant will be quick to ship out a correct batch if you contact them, but that's no fun that you'll have to wait again to get the other two :/
I feel bad asking since it was free and all, but I guess I will drop them a note.
Don't feel bad! As a business they want you to try more than one kind – its what makes you want to order more!
Thanks for letting us know, Stephanie! Azzrian is absolutely right. We want to make sure everyone who joins tea of the month has fun comparing and contrasting the three themed teas, and it would be a shame if you didn't get to try either of Master Han's wonderful Yunnan teas. We will send out a replacement right away, so you should see a follow-up e-mail from us directly. In the meantime, I hope you enjoy the Golden Buds!
My free samples from Teavivre!
Premium Jasmine Dragon Pearls Green Tea
Fengqing Dragon Pearl Black Tea
Jasmine Silver Needle White Tea (Mo Li Yin Zhen)
Taiwan Jin Xuan Milk Oolong Tea
Organic Dehydrated Camellia
I received more Nina's Paris samples! They are awesome!
semi-surprise samples arrived! put a big smile on my face after the sight of the mailbox still devoid of any matcha :(
My Hugo Tea order came today. So excited to try the Morning's Journey tomorrow. :)
Two new pair of Lee Jeans, which I will wear while having a cup of tea (just to make this more tea related).
Got my Verdant order, with a free sample and hand written note. Can't wait to drink tea for the rest of the day.
I received a wonderful envelope full of tea treasures from Awkward Soul that I can't wait to start sampling.
I also got my order from Infussion, and they put in so many extra teas besides what I ordered I can't even remember which ones I ordered and which are samples! LOL Needless to say, I'm excited.

Welcome to the official website for the ASOSU Office of Advocacy.
The Office of Advocacy provides advice and guidance to students who have a dispute within the university. In addition, the office serves as policy advisor and researcher to the ASOSU President and Vice-President. Furthermore, we seek to function as a problem solver for all 28,000+ students who are enrolled at OSU.
Please check here frequently for updated information and further resources to help you or other students overcome any obstacles that may hinder your academic success or fulfillment of collegiate goals.
Areas of Assistance
The Office of Advocacy assists students with academic and personal issues that involve a misunderstanding with the university or any of its administrative units. We handle disputes within a broad spectrum of issues. If you have questions or concerns regarding an entity on campus, or an off-campus facility with close ties to OSU such as The Gem apartment complex, the ASOSU Office of Advocacy can help you to resolve the issue.
Our office is funded by student incidental fees. The Office of Advocacy strives to assist all currently enrolled individuals. However, the Office of Advocacy is unable to participate in disputes between students. Since all students pay incidental fees, we cannot help either student when their interests are in conflict.
The following are some of the areas with which the Office of Advocacy assists:
**The Office of Advocacy does not handle immigration, taxes, copyright, patent, small business or real estate issues.**
If you are unsure whether your issue falls within the scope of the Office of Advocacy, please contact one of our student interns at 541-737-9200 for clarification.

Why Investors want Crocs, Corning and Dollar General
Let's begin with one that some mistakenly thought had no future. I'm speaking about Crocs (CROX) , the worldwide maker and distributor of sassy but comfortable footwear, apparel and accessories for men, women and children.
The stock jumped over 9% after Goldman Sachs analyst Taposh Bari gave the creator of those colorful plastic shoes a "Buy" rating, saying that investors have misinterpreted the shoe brand as a fad.
"We see Crocs as a lifestyle brand with global appeal that appears both proven and sustainable," he wrote in a note to investors. The stock put in a 52-week low price of $12 on Nov. 15, but on Tuesday it leaped to $13.49 on heavier than normal volume.
CROX trades at 8.65 times forward earnings, has very little debt, has over $315 million in total cash (as of Sept. 30) and a price-to-earnings to growth (PEG) ratio of only 0.90. All these factors indicate a stock that is undervalued, so no wonder the upside response was so positive.
Below is what I'll call "the chart of the day." It shows the one-year price movement of CROX versus its retained earnings. By that measure this company may just end up on some big predators' takeover wish list. CROX data by YCharts
Another underrated name that received a good deal of attention Tuesday was Corning (GLW) , which pays an attractive dividend yield of around 3%. In Tuesday's trading GLW spiked almost 7% after it forecast stronger than expected retail demand for consumer electronics in the fourth quarter.
Corning is the world leader in specialty glass and ceramics. Drawing on more than 160 years of materials science and process engineering knowledge, Corning creates and makes keystone components that enable high-technology systems for consumer electronics, mobile emissions control, telecommunications and life sciences. GLW also alluded to stronger demand for new televisions in the U.S.
The company is even saying China will buy lots of new TVs and other electronics as that country gets ready to celebrate the New Year's holiday. Optimism is as ubiquitous as the number of shares traded on Nov. 27, over 42 million compared to its average daily trading volume of less than 14 million shares.
Make smarter trading decisions and provide investment ideas that could help make you richer. Bryan Ashenberg does the dirty work so you don't have to!
Below is the one-year price chart for GLW with its retained earnings and its price-to-book value, which as of the most recent quarter was only 0.77. This may be the second most impressive chart of the day. Pay close attention to the direction of retained earnings. GLW data by YCharts

Doubling Your Income The Easy Way
Specifically, investors should be looking for high yield stocks that have a track record of growing their dividends.
Not only is this sound advice, but it's applicable to a lot more investors.
The most obvious investors for this kind of strategy are retirees and near retirees, looking for income.
The chart below shows a group of companies that have at least doubled their dividend during the past 10 years.
That means shareholders who have owned them during the past 10 years have doubled their income too.
Many have enjoyed strong capital gains along the way.
For instance, in November 2002, McDonald's (MCD) shares were about $16. Today they're about $87.
Source: DRI Historical Dividends
But a buy-and-hold (and watch!) strategy can also deliver the kind of growth that even conservative investors who want to preserve capital can get behind. Specifically, in the chart above, consider Darden(DRI) , which has seen its dividend rise nearly 30 times during the past 10 years.
Now here's what's interesting. In November 2002, Darden shares were $21.63 and paid an annual dividend of about 16 cents a share for a yield of approximately 0.75%. If you made a $10,000 investment at the time, you would have about 462 shares. Assuming you did not reinvest the dividends, your 462 shares would be throwing off $924 of cash, for a cash on cash return of 9.24% annually, a figure which handily beats the S&P 500 five and 10 year performances.
One other stock that should be on the list is Altria Group Altria(MO) . It frequently does not show up on charts like this because the 2008 spinoff 2008 spinoff of Philip Morris (PM) distorts the picture, requiring a little more analysis. Basically, if you owned the stock in 2002 and you still hold it, you've done very well in income as well as capital appreciation.
With respect to income, when the spinoff of Philip Morris International was completed in March 2008, MO shareholders received one new share of PMI for every MO share they had. In 2002, MO was paying a dividend of $2.44 annually. Today the two companies combined are paying $5.16, for a picture perfect double.
Although there is no way to guarantee these companies will continue to raise their dividends. There are good reasons to believe that they will. Given all of the companies shown above have plenty of cash on their balance sheet, there are no fiscal hurdles to prevent them from raising dividends in the near term. Moreover, even during the financial crisis, the companies above continued to pay and increase their dividends.
