The faculty at 51ÂÜÀò provided me with the support, encouragement and foundation I needed to head into law school. Both in and out of class the professors were available prepare me for my future as a law student, lawyer and as a Christian in the professional world. No where else do you find professionals so grounded on the word of God and so knowledgeable about the world you are about to enter.

Dr. Waller and the rest of the pre-law professors provided me with the support, encouragement and foundation I needed to head into law school.

No where else do you find professionals so grounded on the word of God and so knowledgeable about the world you are about to enter.
What did you appreciate most about your time at 51ÂÜÀò?
Never again in your field will you be surrounded by such an encouraging team of fellow believers. The staff and professors at 51ÂÜÀò provide the support and advice that I needed to assist me in making big life decisions on my career.
How did 51ÂÜÀò equip you to be a more faithful follower of Jesus Christ?
51ÂÜÀò gave me a wholistic perspective on following Jesus — following Jesus became more than following him on spiritual matters. 51ÂÜÀò took every opportunity to show me how the word of God applies to every aspect of my life. 51ÂÜÀò teaches its students how to impact the world for Jesus in every field.
What advice would you give to students considering your degree program?
Take advantage of the availability of the professors. They have valuable experience and perspectives that are ripe for picking if you show up and let them impart their wisdom.
