Students

Eastern University is deeply committed to "student development" as an essential element of our educational mission as a Christian liberal arts college. While our academic program develops the ability to communicate effectively, both in writing and speaking to think analytically, critically and independently, our Student Development Program is designed to challenge and support students in their intellectual, physical, interpersonal, and spiritual development. We are concerned that our students not simply accumulate credits that will earn them a degree. Rather, we desire that our students become integrated persons who think and behave intentionally as Christians in all of their endeavors. We believe that both the curricular and co-curricular dimensions of the University are critical in this regard. In the academic realm, students are challenged to explore the various theories current in philosophy, psychology, biology, etc. In the student life realm, students are challenged to explore their own values and beliefs so as to come to a world and life view to which they can be committed.

“I believe that among the Christian Colleges, Eastern is unique in many ways, allowing students a great deal of personal freedom, while maintaining the essentials for Christian Community.” - Bettie Ann Brigham, Vice President for Student Development
