In the years after I graduated I hopped around a few times looking for employment I enjoyed. I ended up returning to the College and working in the Admissions Office. Through that I found a career in higher education. Now I'm attending graduate school for a degree in College Student Personnel Administration. I love it!
When I was in the darkest time of my life, I was surrounded by people who not only encouraged me in love but also held fast to the everlasting truth of God. Grove City College and the people on campus were God's tools in my life to craft me into the man I am today so that I might make the same impact in the lives of others.
The sense of belonging. This can be attributed to the people I interacted with during my many years there, the campus itself with the beautiful architecture, and the overwhelming sense of God's presence.
I would say that Dr. Stanton, the Chair of the Political Science Department, had the most influence as my mentor. He was a straight-shooter and not afraid to hold me to a higher standard as a student, thinker, and man. His passion for students was evident in our interactions and his unwavering expectations for my academic and personal conduct propelled me forward.
