Apparently as of around 4:45 pm today, trying to access the
Southern Baptist Theological Seminary's website (
www.sbts.edu) will automatically redirect you to the site of another seminary.... the
School of Bible Theology Seminary and University. That school's website is the eerily similar address,
www.sbts.org. For some reason, not only is sbts.edu redirecting there but when you click on Southern Seminary's Google link it also takes you to SBTSU.
From this...
To this.....?
I know Southern Seminary has put a lot of work into their web redesign for the 150th anniversary, but I'll bet they never bargained for an obscure school in San Jacinto, CA stealing their domain name.... at least for about 15 minutes or so on February 24. ;-)
Hmm... I smell a cordially written letter of legal nature on the horizon. Seriously, though, you have to wonder why the School of Bible Theology Seminary and University didn't go with www.
sbtsu.org. Something smells fishy.
Edit: Southern Seminary seems to have reclaimed their domain name as of 4:55 pm. I'm very happy as I will be able to check my student email again. :-D
