CC Students In Their Own Words

Coming out of Classical Conversations, my whole education was pretty much rooted in a Christian community. At ORU, getting that same sense of togetherness and those opportunities to share my faith was really a special thing.

ORU’s environment of faith has continued my classical foundation by encouraging me to Know God and Make Him Known more in my everyday life.

CC created a solid foundation of academic excellence and leadership that continues to grow very naturally here at ORU.

In a way, ORU felt much more like an extension of my education in Classical Conversations, where a strong education was the focus, and integration of faith was the priority.
