Student Life
Working while being a full-time student may seem impossible. Somedays it feels like you have the extra time to work, other days not so much. If you find you need to work while going to school, consider first working an on-campus job.

Faith
The season of Advent, the four weeks leading up to Christmas day, is all about waiting. We know the end of the story – the celebration of the birth of our Lord and Savior – but Advent invites us to sit in the space before the celebration and to consider that we are people in need, that the world doesn’t always work like we want it to, and that we are truly dependent on Jesus.
Student Life
When you start college, you hold all of these expectations. You might think you don’t, but you do. You have expectations for your classes, your major, your professors, your friends and your life. I can’t say exactly where these expectations come from. If I had to guess, I’d say they come from a little Mason jar inside your heart, where you’ve come to store all the ideas, plans and dreams you’ve developed over the years. By the time you first set foot on campus, the Mason jar is overflowing with excitement.
