"My time at North Central put incredibly valuable tools in my hands. I think much more clearly and critically than I did before, I know how to research and write well, and when confronted with tough questions it is not something to shy away from, but rather another challenge to face."
Sutton Rehwaldt '15

"My Biblical Languages program taught me a very important lesson: learning is a lifelong process. In order to become truly great at anything, it takes the discipline to do it every day. Just like any change you want to make in the world, success is initiated by continuous and intentional hard-work."
