2012 and beyond

Having completed all the research studies for my Masters degree, and a Masters thesis that will be done by early 2012, I have set my sight on 2012 and beyond. I have been accepted into a Doctoral Program at St.Stephen's College, University of Alberta ( pictured is St.Stephen's College ). It means that the goal of "going back to school at 65," has taken on a new dimension that will take me to age 70. My focus will be the Intersection of Art, Critical Thought, and the Kingdom of God, and I begin early in January 2012.

To chronicle my doctoral journey, I have created an additional blog. So don't be alarmed as I switch more of the discourse to the new (Doctoral) blog. I'll still be here, online, sharing my journey with you. The new blog is http://www.thekogblog.blogspot.com/

"Merry Christmas and blessed New Year"

Alice and I wish you a truly Merry Christmas and a blessed New Year. To all who have followed my back-to-school journey on this blog, it is my prayer that you will have a fulfilling new year, and that the road ahead in 2012, will be a great adventure. I have completed all my Master's graduate studies, except for the final thesis due by April. In the meantime, I have taken a new leap of faith and enrolled in a Doctoral program at St.Stephen's College , University of Alberta, Edmonton. I look forward "to getting my scholarly kicks on Route 66," and beyond.
