Student & Alumni Stories

“In my business classes, the professors usually pointed out passages of Scripture that apply to the business world. We also talked a lot about the idea of servant leadership, looking to Jesus Christ as the ultimate example of this. Many of the business professors have worked in some sort of industry, and so they were able to tell real-world examples of how to integrate your faith into the workplace.” — Melanie Barber ’17, B.S. in Business Management, B.A. in Biblical and Religious Studies
