Those of us in the Middle Eastern Cultural Outreach Center would also like to express our appreciation to this year’s winners, especially the esteemed Dr. Bradford, for helping to free up so much time for a certain Professor of Islamic Studies and Arabic in the Department of Asian and Near Eastern Languages.

While Dr. Peterson's unique ability to draw (send) new students into the area of Mopologetic Studies was widely respected, we here in the Islamic world feel we have been getting short shrift.

Now that he has been relieved of his duties in fighting the enemies of the LDS Church, we are anxious to see if Dr. Peterson is perhaps willing to bring his unique skills in defense of religion to bear on the enemies of Islam.

I have it on good authority that the esteemed Dr Peterson is likewise grateful to 2012 Sampson Avard Golden Sceptre Award nominee Bradford as he now has the time to develop his latest project; an online blog about losing weight - 'Sick Ate None'...
