Praise God from Whom All Blessings Flow

So, this whole college thing has been a long, gruesome process that I have by no means enjoyed. It actually just plain sucks. But, today, I received a huge blessing from God that really just was a light in the dark. I got my SAT scores and rather than cringe I gasped and jumped and screamed and praised God. I got a 2020 out of 2400, which translates into a 1330 out of 1600. Not only so, but my highest scoring section was the Critical Reading section, which I thought I would get the lowest score on.

The Men's Retreat

I know that that title is exactly what hooked you. So I sort of have a question to pose to ladies and young ladies at RBC. The weekend of March 14 -16, the men and the boys are going on a retreat. This isn't unusal. Every September, the boys of RBC are invited to go on the Men's Retreat. They were also invited to particpate in the class The Quest for Authentic Manhood. My question is: why don't the females of RBC do this? I personally (to avoid any generalizations) feel that I am not welcome to participate in say the Ladie's Retreat. I know that the men invite the boys because they want to teach the boys how to be men. So, who is going to teach the girls how to be women? Isn't it only fair that we be instructed also? I don't know. I may be wrong. Maybe there are more opportunities than I realize. So, you tell me.
