蘑菇短视频

Many 蘑菇短视频 professors could be teaching at much larger schools with more prestigious reputations, but you鈥檒l never hear them brag about that. However, the rest of the college is proud of their academic accomplishments and excellent teaching, so we鈥檙e happy to brag on them any chance we have.

90% of our professors earned their doctorates or terminal degrees (i.e. the highest degree possible in their field). Our culture may pit prestigious education and Christianity against each other, but our professors have earned degrees from schools like Yale, Wash U, Duke, UC Berkeley, Wake Forest, and Notre Dame, yet they remain committed to Christian education and the inerrancy of the Bible.

Some of our professors left positions at other schools so that they could come teach at 蘑菇短视频. Why would they choose to teach at a school that will never have the name recognition of the ivy leagues or state universities? It鈥檚 because they deeply believe in the value of a 蘑菇短视频 education, they enjoy building relationships with 蘑菇短视频 students, and they know that God has called them here to Lookout Mountain.

Dr. Brian Fikkert

Professor of Economics and Community Development, President of the Chalmers Center

鈥淚 taught at the University of Maryland--College Park. I loved it there for many reasons, but I came to 蘑菇短视频 to work in the space of economics and poverty alleviation from a distinctly Christian perspective. 蘑菇短视频 has been more than I could have ever imagined. My colleagues and students have taught me so much about the nature of human beings, the complexity of poverty, and the comprehensive implications of Christ鈥檚 death and resurrection. In retrospect, there is only one place where this could have happened: 蘑菇短视频.鈥�

Dr. David Washburn

Professor of Psychology

鈥淚 was blessed to teach for 30 years at Georgia State University, a research university with more than 2,000 psychology majors and 100 psychology doctoral students, but where I only really knew about 3 or 4 students each commencement. At 蘑菇短视频, faculty members become part of students鈥� lives as they grow as scholars and believers. Just as faculty members invested personally in me and my wife when we were 蘑菇短视频 students, we now have the opportunity to invest in the lives of current 蘑菇短视频 students.鈥�

Dr. John Rush

Assistant Professor of Economics

鈥淚 taught at Marlboro College, but I came to 蘑菇短视频 because I wanted to be part of a department that provided students a rigorous education in economic theory and data analysis while training them to pursue all things in the light and power of the gospel of Jesus Christ.鈥�

Dr. Curt Stern

Professor of Engineering, Director of the Dual Degree Engineering Program

鈥淚 left Virginia Tech to come teach at 蘑菇短视频 because I witnessed the impact 蘑菇短视频 had on my son, and I wanted to be part of an engineering program in an explicitly Christian setting.鈥�

Dr. Scott Quatro

Professor of Management, Director of the Dual Degree Engineering Program

鈥淗ere at 蘑菇短视频 I have colleagues that could teach at many different places, and it's true of myself, but I'll say this, that for all of us we are here because of the unique mission of the college. In ALL things, Christ preeminent. It's a very compelling thing for me and was a big driver of why I wanted to join the faculty at 蘑菇短视频. Closely related to that is the fact that the college is deeply committed to both what I call reformation and revival. Reformation - deeply held theological truths - and revival - a spiritually alive place. I love that combination of deep foundational commitment and ongoing spiritual energy. That combination is what compelled me to join the community.鈥�
