Favorite Quote/scripture: 
"Teacher, which is the greatest commandment in the Law? Jesus replied: 'Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.'

Matthew 22:36-40

Prayer of the Children (a choral piece about war and its effects on children)

How did you choose Northwest Christian? 
Dave Downing, the Associate Pastor at my home church in Lebanon, was directly responsible for my attending Northwest Christian.

What's the most surprising thing about Northwest Christian? 
As a small college, it has continued to grow when many small colleges are not.

Favorite thing about Northwest Christian: 
It helped me build a foundation for life.

Special Interests: 
Family (grandchildren), fly fishing, hunting, nature photography, choral music.

Favorite Northwest Christian event/tradition: 
Graduation

Advice for incoming students: 
Education is more than subject matter learning.  It is also learning how to relate to others.  Northwest Christian gives students more than the "what"; it gives the "how" as well.
