Why Northwest Christian?
It’s such a small wholesome community. I love that about it. The classes are small enough I don’t get lost in them. And I heard they had a great Education Program. Which they do!
Favorite Class:
Psychology
Favorite thing about Northwest Christian:
It’s small, and has some of the coolest people I’ll ever know. Whether they come in the form of Students, Professors, Staff, etc.
Favorite Professor:
Loren Crow. He’s pretty funny. He’s an amazing Professor! And he likes The Decemberists!
Favorite Northwest Christian event/tradition:
Beacon Night Live! Male Pageant to the theme of Saturday Night Live. Priceless.
Advice for incoming students:
Get ready for constant change. This is the time when you can choose to grow in so many ways. Try to stay true to yourself and who God is creating you to be. It’s amazing who and what He can bring your way when you give it up to Him!
