About
My office window overlooks the campus lawn and through it I can see students hurrying to classes, returning to dorm rooms, and heading to Chapel for morning worship. Part of my job in parent relations is to share this fine view from my window
with Calvin parents. So here is a new weblog where I will attempt to do just that.

By Jim Van WingerdenAnother blog? The Internet is inundated with blogs and bloggers so why yet another? And does this blogger have the TIME to blog on this new site? Both very good questions.
I’m not sure about the question of having time to blog--time will tell on that score. Here’s a thought or two as to “Why yet another blog?” As parent relations director at Calvin College I engage in a lot of telephone and e-mail conversations each week. Conversations with Calvin parents. Conversations with Calvin staff and faculty members. On occasion I find that the content of some of these conversations might be helpful to others.
