Chamorro! Chamorro! I love you Chamorro!

You're always a day a way..... or at least 14 hours to you east coasters.

As some of you may know the Chamorro people are the people that are native to the Island of Guam. Since the bible college is located in Guam I expected many of our students to be from the island and of Chamorro descent.

Well one of the things that I was surprised about when I got here was not one..... Yes that is what I said - not even one student on campus is a Chamorran. The only Guamanians attending the university are "statesiders" and Chuukese transplants. A majority of the students seem to come from the Islands of Chuuk with Palau and Yap being the other 2 main contributors.
