[B-Greek] B-Greek and Participation of Academics

Hello all,

There is a post on Mike Aubrey's website, EN EFESW asking why students of MacMaster Divinity School don't participate on the B-Greek website (at least are not visibly seen making posts there). The conversation has gotten some former and present B-Greekers to participate, along with some in the MacMaster school.  

The post said

It just occurred to me as I finished my run this afternoon (It’s a 
beautiful sunny day in Vancouver today!) that I’ve never actually seen 
either students or professors from MacDiv participating in the discussions on the B-Greek list.That doesn’t make much sense to me. I know of a number of good students there whose participation would benefit everyone.
The same could be said for a number of other prominent schools: 
Gordon-Conwell, Dallas Theological Seminary, Trinity Evangelical 
Divinity School, etc. Sometimes it feels like NT Greek scholarship is done in a vacuum. And that kind of scholarship hurts the field. What gives?
You may want to log in to Mike Aubrey's site  http://evepheso.wordpress.com/2011/05/23/macmaster-b-greek/, and make a post in EN EFESW after reading through the discussions. What's your opinion? We all want to get the most out of B-Greek, and getting qualified people who know Greek like the back of their hand is important to this community. Are we doing our best? Can we improve? TI FRONEIS;
