Testimonial

"Returning to Bethel University as a professor, I have been amazed by how immensely things have changed since I was a student here and yet how familiar it still feels. The students still seem to have the same close-knit camaraderie with one another and close relationships with their professors as in the days when Bethel was a considerably smaller school. It is comforting to know that, although technology, growth, and a rapidly changing world have dramatically transformed Bethel University in the twelve years since I graduated, certain aspects of the environment here have remained rightfully unaltered."
