Leading a life of significance
Having been blessed with a wonderful youth pastor made Jaden want to minister to underprivileged youth. As mentors contributed to his personal growth and faith formation, Jaden hopes to impact others in the same way. Jaden majors in youth ministry + Christian formation and serves as a resident assistant in his dorm.
Building community
I had some friends from high school that went to Northwestern, and I was not happy at my previous university so I transferred here for a different experience. I have been able to see the drastic benefits of the way Northwestern approaches residence life. I have seen firsthand the intentionality and beauty of residence life here, as well as the campus community.
Standout profs
The biblical + theological studies department is full of wonderful professors who are incredibly intelligent and can communicate their lessons clearly and effectively in an engaging way. This gives students a strong base of diverse theological concepts to help us understand others better. The professors are some of the best teachers I have ever had the privilege of learning from, and it makes me excited to go to class.
Equipped for God’s call
Northwestern has provided me a space to grow, learn and thrive. I have been blessed with lifelong friendships from Northwestern, as well as experiences that have shaped and formed the way I think about the world. I have met a variety of people from different backgrounds, which has opened my eyes to beautiful diversity. Northwestern has offered a safe space to make mistakes and learn from them, all with people walking alongside you.
