Another interested tidbit in this announcement is that the money for Jordan's endowed chair came from Tom Chappell of the company Tom's of Maine, whose toothpaste I use. (The fennel flavor is really nice.)
Anyhow, Chappell has an MTS (I think) from Harvard and was featured in a Business Week article about business leaders with theological degrees a few years back. He's an interesting figure.
I think his years at HDS were when I was an officer on the Alumni/ae Council because I remember seeing him around. That would have been the late 80s and early/mid-90s. And yes, his degree was an MTS. Very nice man.
I use the toothpaste also. And you're one of the few other people I know who likes the fennel flavor. (I don't like licorice, but I like fennel - interesting. I like some of the other flavors too. There is a new clove one --or cinnamon-clove-- too lazy to run into the bathroom and check-- too.)
Thanks for filling in the word verification so that we know you're not a robot.
