Death of Dr. O’Connor
***UPDATE*** Jim Eisenbrauns has written a memoriam for Dr. O'Connor.
Stephen Cook is reporting that Dr. Michael Patrick O'Connor of Catholic University has succumed to liver cancer. Our prayers go out to his family in this difficult time.
One wonders what this sad news combined with the departure of Dr. Gropp to Westminster will mean for the Semitics program at Catholic.
Douglas Gropp and Tim Lane join faculty
The Board of Trustees has appointed Dr. Douglas M. Gropp professor of Old Testament at the Texas Campus, effective July 1. Dr. Gropp currently teaches Semitics at Catholic University of America. He holds degrees from Duke University (B.A.), Westminster (M.Div.), and Harvard (Ph.D.).
