Texas Lutheran University students participated with the City of Seguin annual CROP Hunger Walk on November 11, 2007. The Rev. Harry Foster, Professor of Old Testament Studies, challenged his students to "walk the walk." At that time the class was studying Old Testament prophets and their emphasis on economic and social justice. “I ‘encouraged’ my students” said Professor Foster, “by offering them the following incentives: Walk and you may 1) get ‘credit’ for one unexcused absence and 2) on our next exam, you may answer "CROP" on one question related to the Prophets.” Of the 10 students enrolled, 8 opted to Walk… an 80% participation rate!
