Principal retires
Emeritus Professor Chris Bellenger, Master of Robert Menzies College and Principal of the School of Christian Studies retires on December 31, 2011. Chris has overseen the development of SOCS over the past seven years. His wisdom, gained from years of senior tertiary administration and teaching, and his unfailing encouragement and support of the Director, faculty and students has meant that SOCS has been able to embrace change confidently and perform at levels which are quite exceptional for a relatively small college.
The building project that has seen the College expand by 50% has also been spearheaded by Chris. He and Jan have lived within earshot of every movement on site for the past twelve months. This superb addition will provide an extra two seminar rooms for use by SOCS lecturers and students from 2012.
Our best wishes go with Chris and his wife Jan as they retire from the College and enjoy some well-earned rest and recuperation at their beachside home and country acres. Jan will be completing her Diploma of Theology in the near future, so we hope to see something of them from time to time.
