The Higher Ed. Research Institute just published a report called "The American Freshman" for the Fall of 2006. This is good research on college students. Click here.

Questions to ask at an interview...

I know a lot of our interns are in the job interview process. With that in mind, I thought I would pass along a list of questions I came across a few years ago that you might consider asking your potential church employer before taking the job. Let me know what additions or other questions you might add to this list so I can make it more helpful.

The 5 Most Overrated Teams So Far...

And, here it is...my personal list of this season's most overrated basketball squads at the onset of conference play. Unfortunately, it's only going to get worse for some of these posers!

5. Air Force

With high quality wins against such perennial juggernauts as Arkansas-Pine Bluff and Long Beach State, the Falcons have built a strong case to squeak into the NCAA tournament so far. Fortunately for them, conference play promises to be a breather - no ranked opponents!

4. Alabama

The Crimson Tide have 5 starters in double figures, shredding the likes of Lipscomb and Coppin St. in a powerhouse non-conference schedule. SEC ball is just around the corner, though - uh oh!

3. Duke

What's in a name? The ONLY possible explanations for Duke's #11 ranking is their history and Coach K. They have been extremely lucky up to this point and Paulus is absolutely horrible. Not a good recipe for ACC play.

2. Pittsburgh

Who have they played? Enough said.

And, the most ridiculously overranked team in the entire field of NCAA basketball...

I'll finish this one in my next post...
