Both aspire to听produce听well-rounded servant听leaders.听BC encouraged me to engage with听a wide range of听disciplines, perspectives, and peoples,听guided by amazing professors and alongside inspiring classmates.听I couldn't be more grateful for听the academic and personal foundation that BC provided and confident that it prepared me for what lies ahead.鈥�
