[Vision2020] For Saundra: Limits on NSA Growth

[New man]

Sandra,

While it is true that there is a 50 student cap per new entering class,
you have to understand that growth occurs organically. A student body of
50 creates more demand for school services and the school responds by
hiring more staff and faculty, precisely to maintain the small school
feel (i.e., small class sizes, etc.), and as staff and faculty increases
the need for more students (to finance the increase) becomes
apparent. Over time caps on growth have to be reassessed, and adjusted
accordingly.

Since NSA's founding there have been several caps on growth, and the
college did adhear to those caps as long as they were relevant. Caps are
based on changing circumstances, based on availability of facilities,
faculty, staff, and the affect that a growing student population might
have on the church. That's one of the reasons that we needed to start
Trinity Reformed; and as NSA's growth gains momentum, it may be necessary
to begin other fellowships to accomodate.

NSA would not be hiring people like Mitch Stokes and Bob Hieronymus, if
it didn't intend to flourish. Besides, how could something fail to
prosper when it is so obviously blessed of God. And with this blessing,
common grace abounds to the community at large.
