I haven’t really had an opportunity to meet Professor Roger Alford yet. I have met his wife, and one of their kids is in the youth group with Hillary – plus he teaches 1Ls this year – but for whatever reason I just haven’t had the chance. Before I arrived on campus, I was already fascinated by his Holocaust-related work in Europe, so I look forward to visiting with him at some point along the way.
Professor Alford spoke at our Bible study last night, and with his background working on Holocaust-related issues, the topic of “suffering” was apropos. He did a great job (as suspected), but since there were so many people there – and I had so much work to do afterward – I still haven’t met him.
