Belmont and Union Mentioned in the Same Article

It is such a rare occasion that newspapers (even the Tennessee Baptist newspaper*) mention Union University and Belmont University within the same article, I thought it appropriate to share with my Baptist friends how that is done (via chattanoogan.com):
"To be considered for inclusion in the list of 100, an institution must be an accredited, four-year institution offering bachelor's degrees and full residential facilities. It also must have had an entering freshman class in fall 2006 with a high school grade point average and/or SAT/ACT score equal to or above the national average, and an out-of-state attendance cost in 2007-08 not exceeding the national average by more than 10 percent.

The other schools ranked in Tennessee were: Belmont University, Tennessee Tech University, Union University, UT-Knoxville and UT-Martin."
See, that didn't hurt at all, did it?

Congratulations Belmont and Union (and the others as well)!

* For those keeping score, Belmont is still listed as a TBC institution although rarely mentioned in a positive (i.e. fair and balanced) light in the Baptist & Reflector, Tennessee's official Baptist newspaper.
