Re: [asa] Who are the famous TE's?

I'm curious ... maybe this survey has been done somewhere... but it would be
interesting to know, in the CCCU colleges:

1. What percentage of natural sciences faculty support or are open to a TE
position?
2. Of the support / open percentage from (1), how do the percentages break
down by scientific disipline?
3. What percentage of theology / Biblical studies faculty support or are
open to a TE position?

Any thoughts on that Ted?

I know, for example, that there are TE scientists at Gordon, Bethel, and
Westmont; I suspect there are closet TE or open-to-TE-but-can't-commit
scientists at Wheaton; obviously at Messiah there are TE historians and
philosophers, but I don't know any natural scientists there. I know one or
two Biblical scholars at CCCU schools whom I believe are open to TE.

The introductory textbook "Not Just Science" (http://tinyurl.com/2baehn),
which seems to be intended as an overview for first-year science students at
CCCU colleges, is suggestive in some parts of TE views, but pulls up short.
