Elder Gong is not a member of the Seventy. He's an Apostle. Just outdated info.

Elder Bednar’s personal feelings have nothing to do with it.

Just curious, I don’t know much about how one picks a BoT, but why no educators?
Joe Banks

Those are usually tied to academics or big donors or politics.

Other than Elders Holland and Bednar who were both university presidents?
