Writersoul – just want to point out that “not being out-of-town” isn’t objectively negative. There are people who consider it a positive, and who would prefer a seminary that is less “out-of-town”. Also, there are very different defintions for out-of-town.
Meanwhile, on the other thread, futuregirl wrote that she thinks both TD and DB are too BYish for her. I agree with you that B’aer Miriam may not be right for her in terms of academics, but I am not sure. In other ways, it would certainly be great for her.
I am interested in hearing your opinions, but all seminary-related posts should probably go on the other thread at this point.
