Something Valuable You Learned at NNU (or Something Valuable You Learned from Joel/Nikki): I learned that making time for people is the most important part of being a Christian. Supporting one another in our struggles and triumphs. NNU students frequently express that we do college different. How do you believe NNU does college different? NNU does college different by allowing education students specifically, to be in an observation classroom their first semester to make sure they know what they are getting themselves into. This was helpful as I switched from elementary education to music education after my first semester of college.
