"I just never thought I'd see the day."
That was the first thought expressed by B.A. Chelors, a student at Leavell College upon the realization that Seminary classes are taking place in what was once thought to be a "safe haven" for Leavell College students.
Said another student, "Don't they have enough room? I mean, don't they have like two whole buildings to call their own? Why do they need to be taking up classrooms in OUR building?"
For those not in the "loop," Leavell College is the college of undergraduate studies at New Orleans Baptist Theological Seminary. Leavell College has its offices in the Mary Hardin Student Center, which is also where most of the Leavell College classes meet. Leavell College music students have their classes in the Sellars Music Building. Seminary students generally call Bunyan, Dodd, Sellars, and certain parts of HSC "home." Seminary students even seem to think Leavell Chapel is theirs, too.
LC student Bac Min had this to say, "I don't want to sound like a grouch, but is it too much to ask to have just a little bit of the campus to call our own? Every where I go, I see 'Seminary-this,' or 'Seminary-that.' It seems to be all about 'The Seminary.' Even our student ID's say 'New Orleans Baptist Theological Seminary.' Sometimes, it's like we don't even exist.
"Of course it would seem like we own the place," replied MDiv student G.R. Aduate, "We do own it. There's a reason it's called a Seminary." Another seminary student was dumfounded, "I didn't even know we had a bachelor's program. I figured all those peole were faculty kids."
Seminary administration had no comment on the situation.
