Sometimes I think that if it weren't for our kids, we'd have pretty calm lives. And how boring would that be?

Last week I took my son's academic team to the local PBS station to compete in scholar's bowl. We did pretty well, especially considering that we're competing against public schools with a lot more money than we have. The kids were pleased, and that's what matters.

Next week, his class is going to check out Union University in the western part of TN. They won't visit Freed-Hardeman (mainly because it isn't Baptist, but they don't put it that way). He could have gone over to FHU, but he really isn't interested (no engineering program), so he won't be going.

Is your son a junior? I understand Pepperdine has a 3-2 engineering program. IT's new. they go 3 years to Pepperdine and 2 to USC and come out with BA's from both.
My son is interested in engineering too, but boy does he need to get the grade up. I keep telling him, maybe you ought to reconsider the major.
He's in project lead the way.

Yes, he's a junior. (WHERE did the time go?!) He's really looking seriously at Harding, and I think we can probably swing that. There's NO WAY we could do Pepperdine.
