Excerpts from a message sent to students by the Very Rev. Kurt Dunkle, dean and president of General Theological Seminary, posted on Episcopal Café by Megan Castellan:

Dr. Joshua Davis made the decision not to return. He will not resume teaching or other duties at General.

… Regarding our returning faculty, the procedure for reintegration and continuation for each class has been carefully thought through and agreed to by the returning faculty member. For chapel, however, there is less clarity. Returning faculty have been encouraged to return to faculty stalls for all services, but I have heard that some wish to remain within the wider choir section for some liturgies, perhaps for a time being. I hope this evening that all will vest and join in our long tradition of Evensong procession in the usual manner.

Read the rest.
