Elsewhere, they only set up parts of the magazine in advance. Secular magazines do the same. They have certain topics that they cover the same time every year. The editorial staff on magazines also leave space open for the last minute, moving up the ladder quickly topic. They also leave room to pull certain articles if something else becomes more newsworthy. I'm sure they pulled the report when they realized that the numbers wouldn't be ready to post in January 1. It wouldn't be too hard to switch a fill in article in Febuary for the pages that would have taken up the space in January 1.
I'm wondering if they have released the yearbooks yet. They can't switch info around in that publication. Anyone with Bethel connections to know if the Bethel workers have received their yearbook yet.
