Middle ground expired with the last Dean,  think

The end of GTS, for sure.

I don’t think that would be so difficult at all -- it **is** New York City, 
after all <g>. There are dozens of well-qualified clergy/professors who would be 
outstanding -- including some retirees who'd be delighted to come in for a year 
or two.

But that still would not address the problems that were ignored or compromised 
into oblivion before Dean Dunkle was called and would remain until the place 
went to way of Seabury or even Mercer <g>.
