In a world where:
Our culture is highly competitive… We face ethical dilemmas… I’m not sure of my place…
I entered college with no discernable study skills and a very poor academic track record. My high school counselor had suggested that based on my GPA and ACT score that perhaps college would not be the “best fit” for me.
I needed:
Better study skills… A solid education in a Christian context… Confidence…
At Tabor, I received a very solid business education. But what I most appreciated was an introduction to thinking about business in the context of a Christian worldview. I was challenged to think about the role of profit, about ethics, about character and about leading in the way of Jesus.
Tabor provided:
Personalized attention from faculty… Character development… Opportunities to lead…
After my first semester, I remember concluding that perhaps I could perform academically at this level. I graduated with high honors, but much more importantly developed a love for learning, which continues to this day. Through different campus activities, I also discovered that I have leadership skills. Although Tabor’s academics were and continue to be strong, at least half of my learning came outside of the classroom.
