We’ve received reports all summer about the amazing internships, missions trips, and adventures our returning Huntington University students undertook in the past few months. With summer winding down, now is the perfect time to recap some of those experiences.

October in the MCA offers a bit of something for everyone. A band concert, senior showcases, and a guest lecture will headline our Zurcher Auditorium and Longaker Recital Hall stages. Plus, Terry Pulley’s exhibition of paintings will be on display all month in the Robert E. Wilson Art Gallery.

The Spirit of a Forester language clarifies who we are and guides who we become. Like the creeds of our Christian tradition, the Spirit of a Forester was our very intentional effort to define what we believe. Our creed has a direct impact on our everyday operations in a way that goes beyond the foundational purpose of our mission statement, beyond any marketing campaign.

As you prepare to come back to HU after the summer, remember that you have an entire Forester Family to welcome you to campus. Moving back can be stressful, but remembering the exciting and rewarding aspects of life at HU can be a tremendous encouragement.

This is by no means a complete list of all of the resources we offer at Huntington University. However, these are some of the resources you likely will return to repeatedly in the semesters to come. You can save yourself time and hassle by being aware of them now and saving them in a place that will be easy to find later.

We are officially less than one month away from the start of the fall 2023 semester, Foresters. Are you ready? To help you prepare for the first day of classes, I’ve gathered together some of my favorite HU academic resources, webpages you will access repeatedly while a student.

Three science-focused camps featured hands-on lab experiences, field trips, and an introduction to college-level science study and college life. And this was only the beginning.

Students experienced firsthand what it is like to be a professional storyteller, producing portfolio-worthy projects with professional equipment and engaging with a community of artists and storytellers. For many, the Academies confirmed their interest in the arts.

I think the most important lesson that I’ve learned is, perhaps, that when I work, I ought to work for the Lord and not for myself or a paycheck or those kinds of things. That’s the thing that every day just keeps me going. That’s the thing that continues to ground me.

These three September events are only the beginning — we have an entire season of events lined up in the Merillat Centre for the Arts that you will want to see. Consider this your invitation to join us!
