The college must treasuer Bethny in Kansas and Smoky Valley People as well as the other books whatever its woos if it can show respect and honor for the works of these Swedish writers and use these in their courses incorporate these in their courses: English – can be even for grammatical errors, History can be, Science
This will show that the college is embracing and supporting its Swedish roots and those of the community. – such as article on women of Lindsborg and Bethany College for MARCH HISTORY MONTH
Following black history month for your classes there is this new MARCH WOMEN HISTORY MONTH
As an aacademic institution this should happen and if these books are digitalized, then all can have access to them.
Their studies of these events and person in the books will set them on the highest standadar in the eyes of the last living links in Lindsborg, in academica.
Showing this seriourness of taking hold of this icredible Sw/ and SA culturlal herigtage and in so doing may very well bring forth generate thousands of dollars from Last living links grandautes.
At the same time of studying this Swedish Culture an ongoing Culture along with it would be for the student to study his own. And professors to study their own because America is made up of migrants.
LINDSOBRG and her neibors have just begun their exisitnces and we can still trace it back to the beginning – the foundation, this is still intack – this is why this is so important – we have just enough of everything to create an institute with a museum or a foundation to do this and IT WLL BE FUNDED –
The College can begin this on a very small scale by beginning with the KICK OFF of the Messiah performance invitations to all SWEDEs everywhere and to the Lutheran’s in their SYNOD.
Your character is more important than your ministry

Have Silicon Valley Atherton Forest Walking Friends make a donation
Knowing your potential donors for Bethany:
I could not ask them now for any money, b/c Bethany has nothing to offer to the world beyond the Smoky Valley.
How can she be a shining light to the world? How does she get there? SO that people from all over will want to give to her needs?
She must return to her orgicnal roots to those who parented her, like as a prodical son come home to his father. And start there.
She has to regain her Swedish identity once again.
How can she do that? Through out the years
1 She can first look back at her life and learn about all those that helped her along the way.
2 she will need to go to work honor them and their works,
3 write about them,
4 memorialize them
5 she will need to learn from them, their traditions their art,
6 she will need to create a space for their SWEDISH ways
Special places and special spaces for her history
But before we can ask them for mone
Feb 1 2023 Saw Dennis on AFW and realized I have lots of friend of the moment through this walk who are millionairs and billionares. Most people want to give to a good cause and if they like you and you have established an assoction with them even for just moments throughout a week, year in and year out – you have something precious. I think that these people would donate to Bethany College if I asked them especially around late October or November for end of the year Planned Giving.
Then, all Bethany College alumni have their areas of influence like this and could ask for donations as well.
Historically BC was very unique due to its Swedish history with talented musicians, singers, and artists, the news of which was spread from coast to coast and of course to SWEDEN.
Bethany has to pick up its game again and make an impression from coast to coast that she is solid, she once again is into developing a solid foundation for herself in the 21st Century after being knocked around for a couple of previous centuries.
Now is the time to embrace former President Will Jones moto Bethany Arise and to do all you can to Brand her with the brand that was always hers – her SWEDISNESS – the cosmetic part of that happened in ________ Now it is time for her to prove that she still is that Swedish College of the past and will tenderly remember and plant memorials to that as well as ongoing ---- for

The more poor students that go to BC, the less $ will come in., through the years, that is why you have to go to other doners. This is an AMERICAN college like any other, what is the point of giving a lot money to it from those students for years to come.
If they are part of something historical in their expericne with BETHANY, they WILL GIVE. b/c they played a historical part in endowing the COLLEGE by the year 2031.
