Best residence life memory from my college days

There are so many, but I will never forget when President Nielson and his wife led the Belz residence hall to Andreas Hall and declared war on them in order to make them a "vassal state." During Dr. Nielson's inspirational speech to romantically inaugurate the battle, the residents of Andreas made a preemptive attack. It was an all out pillow fight war. Sad to say for those of Andreas, Belz indisputably won, yet mercifully took a laissez-faire approach and allowed Andreas to self-rule.

 

Favorite way to spend a Saturday

Chillaxing with friends, listening to good music, soaking up the sun, playing some guitar, and reading a good book. Also, surfing. This is new.

 

Three words to describe life in the apartments and Andreas Hall

For the apartments-chill, potluck, far.

For Andreas-comfortable, new, funtastic.

 

Favorite apartments and Andreas Hall activity

Apartments-potlucks when everyone brings something for a feast and fellowship.

Andreas-coffee house concerts.

 

What to expect in the apartments and Andreas Hall this year

Good relationships that build you up and never let you down... well, hopefully not. Above all, a community that seeks to know Christ.

 

Best thing about my job

Relationships. No question. My job enables me to spend time with great people and serve college students. What a dream! The friendship and discipleship are really exciting!

 

 

 

Kristina Gilliam '09
Resident Assistant, Student Apartments

 

Major

Sociology

 

Hometown

Phoenix, AZ

 

Favorite class

Doctrine II with Pastor Hutchinson - I dreaded going for the first few weeks because I was so overwhelmed by the new truths being thrown at me. By the end of the semester, I had a whole new outlook on basically God and all of Christianity. Not bad for 3 hours of class a week, eh?

 

What the residents of the student apartments can expect

The apartments are relaxed and independent, but expect to still be part of an active community that likes to hang out over roasted pig.

 

What I'm all about

You, Jesus, talking, laughing, traveling, cooking for you, coffee, sarcasm, music, driving...fast.

 

 

 

Ryan Sandidge '09
Resident Assistant, Student Apartments

 

Major

Biblical & Theological Studies

 

Hometown

Dacula, GA

 

Favorite class

Christology. Deeply challenged me to consider the who and why about Jesus. Not only did I learn a lot but my faith grew considerably.

 

What the residents of the student apartments can expect

I see the apartments as a neighborhood, and I want everyone to feel they have their independence but also that they can stop in and say hi. Expect block parties, game nights, pig roast, etc.

 

What I'm all about

Love, community, fun, etc.
