What Do You Enjoy about Your Major?
"I enjoy learning about the sciences from a biblical perspective, where my classmates and I can marvel at God’s glory in creation. I am also truly blessed to have professors like Dr. Morris who has been very intentional, kind and patient with me. He goes beyond the role of being my academic advisor and biology professor to being a mentor."
